ZTE today lifted the curtains on the ZTE Axon 30 Ultra Aerospace Edition phone through a launch event that also unveiled various other products such as the ZTE Voyage 20 Pro, multiple routers, and the ZTE LiveBuds Pro earbuds. But the ZTE Axon 30 Ultra Aerospace Edition obviously continues to be the star of the show because of the massive amount of RAM it packs – 18 gigabytes!

Not only that, but the phone also offers a mammoth 1TB of storage, making it the industry’s first to come with an 18GB RAM + 1TB storage config. The phone carries a space theme all around – from its black-ish coloring to the planet-themed packaging. ZTE says that it’s designed to be a tribute to the spirit of space exploration and Chinese space heroes.

The box packs multiple other surprises too. The protective film within shows a space station orbiting the earth in a minimalist style. There’s even a custom case that appears to be made of carbon fiber. Last but not least, you also get ZTE LiveBuds Pro Bluetooth earbuds inside that normally cost 349 Yuan or around $55.

Apart from all of the aforementioned specials, the ZTE Axon 30 Ultra Aerospace Edition is identical to its vanilla version. It is equipped with the Snapdragon 888 processor and has an FHD+ 6.67-inch AMOLED curved screen with support for HDR 10+ and 144Hz refresh rate. But perhaps the most impressive bit is its rear camera module that packs triple 64MP cameras – another industry first. It doesn’t just end there though as there’s also a fourth 8MP periscope telephoto sensor. Upfront, you get a 16MP sensor for selfies. The phone’s battery is sized at 4600mAh with support for 66W fast charging.

The ZTE Axon 30 Ultra Aerospace Edition is priced at 6,998 Yuan (~$1,095), but it’s unlikely that it will be making it to the global market. You can still grab the regular ZTE Axon 30 Ultra (8+128) for $749 though and there’s even an additional $200 discount deal as part of Black Friday.

ZTE has already announced that the company will be launching a new variant of its current flagship smartphone Axon 30 Ultra on 25th November in China, which is dubbed as ZTE Axon 30 Ultra Space Edition.

Ahead of the phone getting officially unveiled, the company has shared another teaser which reveals that the smartphone’s quad-camera setup on the back panel will be using Image Fusion Technology for enhancing the photo quality.

For those who are unaware, Image Fusion Technology basically combines photos captured using different camera lenses into a single image to provide features like higher resolution, better low-light performance, and lower noise levels, among others.

Previously, the company revealed some high-definition images of the ZTE Axon 30 Ultra Space Edition smartphone, revealing a special logo or branding of TAIKONAUT, a Chinese astronaut, on the phone. It has also been confirmed that the limited edition device will come packed with 18GB of RAM and 1TB of internal storage.

We expect the rest of the phone’s specifications to remain the same as the Axon 30 Ultra. It features a 6.67-inch AMOLED display with a Full HD+ screen resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels, a 144Hz refresh rate, a 20:9 aspect ratio, and Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protection.

Under the hood, the device is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 mobile platform, coupled with LPDDR5 RAM and UFS 3.1 storage. In the camera department, there’s a quad-camera setup on the back that includes a 64-megapixel main camera, a 64-megapixel wide-angle lens, a 64-megapixel ultrawide shooter with a 120-degree FOV, and an 8-megapixel telephoto lens.

On the front side, the smartphone features a 16-megapixel snapper for taking selfies and video calling. Running Android operating system, it is powered by a 4,600mAh battery that supports 66W rapid charging.

ZTE has a lineup of Axon 30 series smartphones, among which, the ZTE Axon 30 Ultra is the flagship model. Now, the company is gearing up to launch a new variant of the phone that will break recorders in terms of memory configuration.

The company has shared a teaser poster on Weibo which reveals that the ZTE Axon 30 Ultra Space Edition will be launched on 25th November. What’s interesting is that the phone is touted to be the world’s first to pack 18GB of RAM and 1TB of internal storage.

So far, the device has been available with a top-configuration of 16GB RAM and 1TB internal storage. With the upcoming variant, the Chinese company is increasing the phone’s RAM by 2GB, resulting in it reaching 18GB.

From the poster shared by the company, it appears that this upcoming Axon 30 Ultra Space Edition will be made available in limited quantities. To know more about the smartphone, its pricing and availability information, we will have to wait for the official launch set to take place next week.

Apart from the memory configuration, we expect the rest of the phone’s specifications to remain the same as the Axon 30 Ultra. It features a 6.67-inch AMOLED display with a Full HD+ screen resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels, a 144Hz refresh rate, a 20:9 aspect ratio, and Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protection.

It’s been a while since ZTE launched its flagship phone, the AXON 30 Ultra. I’m sure you guys are just as curious as us to see how good the high-end phone from ZTE really is. With that in mind, let’s take a look at how it performs.

Axon 30 Ultra Review: Design & Display

When I first saw this phone, I really liked it. It has a square appearance, with the top and bottom cut flat, and the camera module is rectangular but has some details. With the dark gray frosted glass, the whole shape is very calm and elegant.

This shape reminds me of Samsung’s Note series, but considering that Samsung may not launch a new Note model this year, the AXON 30 Ultra may be one of the most square phones you can buy this year. The camera is color-coated and reflects colorful shades when exposed to light.

The 188g weight makes it one of the lightest flagship phones from any brand this year. Honestly, I really like the look and the lightweight feel of the device, but it is not without drawbacks. The bezel is quite prominent, and it can be a bit uncomfortable to hold it for long periods of time. Other than that, I’m very happy with the design.

The AXON 30 Ultra 5G features a 144Hz refresh rate, FHD+, 10bit color depth support screen. The hole punch is in the middle of the screen. Although the screen has no screen protector, the oleophobic layer of the screen is sufficient, so it is very smooth to operate. The upper and lower bezel is almost equal in width, but it is not on the same plane as the screen, so it cuts your hand when sliding. Although the supplier of the screen is not Samsung, it still uses diamond-like pixels.

The fingerprint recognition area is situated a bit higher than usual, and it is more comfortable when unlocking. In short, AXON 30 Ultra’s screen is average for a flagship, not particularly outstanding to wow people, but it has no obvious shortcomings for users to complain about.

Axon 30 Ultra Review: Hardware & Gaming

Since it is called the Ultra, the phone naturally features top-end hardware like the Snapdragon 888, UFS 3.1, and LPDDR5.

In the AnTuTu Benchmark, the phone scored 790011, while in 3D MARK it scored 5857. The Geekbench 5 scores were 1125 for single-core and 3575 for multi-core. The Benchmark scores are the usual level for flagship phones.

Next, let’s take a look at the gaming performance. The frame rate curve of PUBG is very smooth, which means that the most basic cooling measures are implemented without any problems. The Axon 30 Ultra uses a 2880mm2 liquid cooling plate, which seems to have made a significant difference in the extreme gaming tests.

Genshin Impact’s frame rate curve is not as stable as PUBG’s, but the average frame rate of 52fps and the absence of sudden and significant frame rate drops make for a good gaming experience. Brightridge’s gaming performance is also similar to Genshin Impact.

Of course, it has the same shortcomings as the other Snapdragon 888 phones — the phone heats up quite a bit. But since ZTE has chosen to unleash full performance, a temperature increase is inevitable.

Axon 30 Ultra Review: Camera Performance

The camera system of AXON 30 Ultra is very interesting, three of the four lenses are all main camera level lenses. They are 64MP main camera, 64MP portrait lens, 64MP ultra-wide lens. The last one is an 8MP 5x telephoto lens.

Main Camera

The main camera, even with the AI tuning, is not too gaudy, HDR is moderately strong, the details are plentiful, the white balance is stable, and the finished photo style is of the type that is stable, without mistakes. At night, AXON 30 Ultra’s auto mode is not integrated with any night mode algorithm, so you can see that the auto mode photos are faithfully restored to what the naked eye sees, and the dynamic range of the photos is relatively small. However, once the night mode is turned on, all aspects of the photos are improved tremendously. The noise is also less while retaining details, which already belong to the first tier level of flagship phones.

Ultra-Wide Camera

The ultra-wide camera has basically the same tuning as the main camera. However, because the hardware is weaker than the main camera, the exposure in low lighting scenes is also a bit darker and there will be more noise.

Portrait Lens

The AXON 30 Ultra’s portrait lens is not the same kind that other phones use to assist with bokeh, rather it is called a portrait lens because it is close to the equivalent 35mm focal length. However, to take 35mm equivalent photos, you need to manually slide the adjustment to 1.3x or switch to portrait mode to achieve it, the default mode gives you a 2x zoom button. The bokeh algorithm is not very effective if the portrait mode is not a human subject, so generally, I use this lens as a 2x telephoto. This lens works very well at 2x zoom, and the results at night are not bad. In addition to the noise limited by the hardware, exposure has been at par with the main camera.

Telephoto Lens

The last 5x telephoto lens performs well in the daytime. But at night, when the lighting goes down, the image may turn out to be blurred. Plus, it doesn’t have night mode, so it’s better to avoid using it if the light is too low.

I think the advantage of the AXON 30 Ultra’s image system is that it has a full range of focal lengths, so you can choose the right focal length to compose a picture, no matter how close or far. This is very friendly for photography enthusiasts.

Video

Because all three lenses are at the main camera level, except for the 5x telephoto, they are all able to record 4K 60fps video. The main camera can support up to 8K 30fps video and can also record HDR video. 5x telephoto intelligently records up to 1080p 60fps video. With strong image stabilization, it is a phone with very good video recording features.

AXON 30 Ultra’s new pre-installed system, MyOS 11, is also a change from the previous design, the UI and icons have become more youthful and vibrant, and the animations are smooth. If you’ve used the global version of MIUI or other Chinese branded custom Android OS, MyOS is very similar to them. But unfortunately, the global version of MyOS 11 is less functional than the Chinese version, for example, the streamlined desktop on the Chinese version is not present on the global version, which is a pity.

Axon 30 Ultra Review: Battery Life

AXON 30 Ultra supports up to 65w of charging power. The charger is included in the box, and it is worth mentioning that the charging interface is Type-C and the charging cable sent is also USB-C to C. The charger is very small and supports PPS. And this 65w charger is very small and supports PPS, which is considered to be a better overall quality of the charger that comes with the box.

Charging speed is okay, 10 minutes gets you to 28%, 30 minutes up to 64%, and 52 minutes to fully charge the device. So it looks like the charging tech doesn’t use trickle charge. However, it is rather unfortunate that the flagship is not equipped with wireless charging. 

Although it is only 188g, ZTE still stuffed a 4600mAh battery. In the real-life battery test, the phone consumed 5% for half an hour of TikTok, 4% for half an hour of online video, 9% for one game of PUBG, 22% and 12% for half an hour of Genshin Impact, and 20 minutes of Brightridge, respectively. So, the battery life is also at a moderate level.

Axon 30 Ultra Review: Verdict

The AXON 30 Ultra is undoubtedly a very well-balanced flagship phone that has almost no particular shortcomings. But if you look at it the other way, it doesn’t have any obvious strengths either. Perhaps the squarish design, the dominant appearance, and the complete range of focal lengths are its more prominent highlights.

But would you buy this phone for these two strengths? Let us know in the comments section down below.

Despite the issues with the supply of chipsets caused by the pandemic, several Chinese flagships hitten the market this year. Even ZTE came up with a new flagship series: the most advanced model of its latest lineup is the ZTE Axon 30 Ultra. It is not one of the most expensive flagships out there, but despite that, it still provides amazing specifications and top-notch cameras. In this comparison, we will help you to understand whether or not it delivers a value for money as high as the Realme GT 5G and the Xiaomi Mi 11X Pro which are the latest Realme and Xiaomi flagships powered by the Snapdragon 888 mobile platform.

ZTE Axon 30 Ultra 5G vs Realme GT 5G vs Xiaomi Mi 11X Pro

Design

ZTE Axon 30 Ultra 5G is definitely the handset with the most attractive design: the reason is the front panel. It is the only one to come with a curved edge-to-edge display; further, it has a higher screen-to-body ratio thanks to narrower bezels. Right after, we got the amazing leather color variant of the Realme GT 5G which features a very original design and is the most compact device of the trio. But you should not underestimate the Xiaomi Mi 11X Pro which comes with the thinnest body.

Display

The best display of this comparison belongs to the ZTE Axon 30 Ultra. It is a 6.67-inch panel with the AMOLED technology, one billion colors, the HDR10+ certification, a Full HD+ resolution and a refresh rate of 144 Hz. With the Xiaomi Mi 11X Pro you get a HDR10+ display too, but it does not show one billion colors and the refresh rate is lower: just 120 Hz. Further, unlike its rivals, it does not offer an in-display fingerprint reader (the biometric sensor is side-mounted). The Realme GT 5G has a 120 Hz AMOLED panel as well.

Hardware/Software

ZTE Axon 30 Ultra, Realme GT 5G and Xiaomi Mi 11X Pro are all powered by the awesome Snapdragon 888 mobile platform, actually the best chipset released by Qualcomm. The SoC is paired with LPDDR5 RAM and UFS 3.1 internal storage in each case, but you can get something more with the ZTE Axon 30 Ultra. The latest ZTE flagship offers up to 16 GB of RAM and up to 1 TB of internal storage: the best memory configuration you can get on a phone if we exclude the latest Asus ROG Phone Ultimate. All the phones are based on Android 11.

Camera

The ZTE Axon 30 Ultra wins the camera comparison thanks to a stunning camera setup which can compete with the best camera phones out there. It has a quad camera setup composed of three 64 MP sensors and an 8 MP periscope camera with 5x optical zoom. You also get an ultrawide sensor, laser autofocus and dual OIS. The silver medal goes to the Xiaomi Mi 11X Pro sporting a 108 MP main camera which supports 8K video recording.

Battery

These three phones come with similar battery capacities and there should be only marginal differences when it comes to the battery life. Note that the Xiaomi Mi 11X Pro has slower charging speeds.

ZTE Axon 30 Ultra 5G vs Realme GT 5G vs Xiaomi Mi 11X Pro: Price

ZTE Axon 30 Ultra starts from about €600/$728 (China), Xiaomi Mi 11X Pro is priced €442/$536, and Realme GT costs €395/$480 in its base variant. On the paper, the winner of the comparison is the ZTE Axon 30 Ultra due to its great display and better cameras, but Xiaomi Mi 11X Pro and Realme GT offer a higher value for money thanks to their affordable prices.

ZTE is emphasizing a lot on cameras of the upcoming ZTE Axon 30 series of devices. With just three days left for the launch, it has confirmed today that it will have a Super Moon Ultra mode.

Capturing the celestial bodies or the areas of the night sky isn’t new to us. Other smartphone makers have their own version of Astrophotography to capture the stars and moon during the night-time. However, it looks like the ZTE Axon 30 Ultra will take it to the next level.

In a series of posts on Weibo, ZTE showcases how the Super Moon Ultra mode on the device works. Although the company shares the posts with #ZTEAxon30series, the teasers are shown with the Ultra so we will have to wait and see if other devices support it.

Talking about the Super Zoom Ultra, ZTE says that the model relies on multi-camera synchronization to perfectly bring the clarity of the moon and the environment surrounding it. By fusing this with the algorithm underneath, the images that come out are said to produce perfect moonlight seen by the human eye.

You can look at a few sample images shared by the company below:

The images suggest that the Ultra will make use of the 64MP trio and the 8MP Periscope Telephoto Super Zoom lenses to get the right shot. Also, in a couple of videos, we can see that the device has a curved display with a punch-hole at the center for the selfie camera.

Reports so far say that the ZTE Axon 30 Pro and Ultra variants will have a second-generation under-display front camera with a 44MP lens. The display is likely a 6.92-inch OLED screen with 10-bit colors, a 120Hz refresh rate, and a 360Hz touch sampling rate.

Talking about the camera, the Ultra is said to have a 64MP f/1.6 main, 64MP ultra-wide, 64MP portrait lens, in addition to that 8MP periscope lens with 5X optical zoom.

Other expected specs include Snapdragon 888 flagship chipset, LPDDR5 RAM, and the latest UFS 3.1 storage, 4,500mAh battery with 55W or 65W fast charging support, MyOS based on Android 11.

ZTE confirmed that it’s bringing the Axon 30 series to China on April 15. Today, the company has revealed that the ZTE Axon 30 Ultra will have an 8MP Super Zoom Periscope Telephoto lens.

Last week, the company confirmed the presence of an Auxiliary lens in addition to the Trinity Triple-camera setup. Today, it has revealed the entire camera specs and its stabilization features. Anyway, below are the camera specs of the ZTE Axon 30 Ultra:

• 64MP primary sensor, f/1.6 aperture
• 64MP ultra-wide, 13mm focal length
• 64MP Portrait lens
• 8MP Super Zoom Periscope Telephoto, 123mm focal length, 5x Optical zoom

It’s also worth mentioning that the ‘Neovision photography’ would be made possible with the lenses having apertures ranging from f/1.6-3.4  and focal length between 13-123mm. ZTE also has shared a video of Steadicam-level stabilization features on the ZTE Axon 30 Ultra.

Talking about the camera layout, it has a rounded rectangle design with four lenses stacked inside. The camera bump is a lot like the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra and also has a dual-LED flash beside the lenses.
