ZTE has a new mid-range 5G smartphone coming according to a new leak posted on Weibo, the Chinese social media platform. The new phone will arrive as the ZTE Blade A31 5G and will have a Snapdragon processor under the hood.

The source of the leak is Digital Chat Station and it comes as a shared image on his timeline that appears to be a page from a certification document. The scanned document shows that the ZTE Blade A31 5G has the model number A2122H.

1 of 2

There is a drawing of the phone which shows that it will have a centered punch hole and an in-display fingerprint scanner which means that it will have an AMOLED display. Powering the device is the Snapdragon 768G processor, the same chipset inside the iQOO Z3 and the Redmi K30 5G Racing Edition.

Judging from the caption of the post, it appears there is very limited stock of the Snapdragon 780G processor which made its debut in the Mi 11 Lite 5G. This has led manufacturers to look to other chipsets for their phones. It is safe to assume that the original plan was for the Blade A31 5G to come with the 5nm chipset but its unavailability led to ZTE settling for the Snapdragon 768G.

The Snapdragon 768G was announced last year and it first appeared in the Redmi K30 5G Racing. The 7nm chipset has a clock speed of 2.8GHz and boasts a 15% increase in GPU performance over the Snapdragon 765G.

We do not know when ZTE will unveil the Blade A31 5G. The manufacturer is yet to announce the UNISOC-powered Blade A31 4G we spotted on the Bluetooth SIG website back in February. Maybe both devices will be announced together.
