As scheduled, ZTE launched the ZTE Axon 40 Ultra Aerospace Edition in China today. Though the device was the star of the event, it wasn’t the only phone that got announced. The company also unveiled a new color variant of an existing handset.

Just as the brand had disclosed, it also launched the ZTE Yuanhang 40 Pro Plus Starry Sky Edition at this conference. Let’s take a look at this product.

The ZTE Yuanhang 40 Pro Plus Starry Sky Edition is nothing but a new color version of the original phone from last month. The new variant is identical to the regular model in terms of features. It only differs by its rear design.

As the name suggests, the rear AG glass panel of this handset mimics a light blue sky with a spiral of stars. The design is inspired by Van Gogh’s sky painting. The color scheme is lighter than the one found on the Nubia Z40S Pro Starry Night Edition.

Despite coming with a new rear design, ZTE is not charging more for the ZTE Yuanhang 40 Pro Plus Starry Sky Edition. It costs the same ¥2,198 ($307) for 8GB RAM and 256GB storage.

The smartphone is currently up for pre-order. It will hit the shelves on December 6.

The key specs of the product include a 6.67-inch FHD+ AMOLED display, MediaTek Dimensity 810 chipset, 64MP main camera, 16MP selfie camera, side-mounted fingerprint sensor, NFC, 4,510mAh battery, and 66W fast wired charging support.

In late October, ZTE launched a mid-range smartphone called ZTE Yuanhang 40 Pro Plus in China. A month later, the company now reveals that it will be debuting a new color variant of this handset tomorrow.

The new version of Yuanhang 40 Pro Plus will be announced alongside the ZTE Axon 40 Ultra Aerospace Edition.

ZTE will be holding a press conference in China on November 29. The company has been teasing to debut the Axon 40 Ultra Aerospace Edition at this event.

But today, a day ahead of the conference, the company disclosed that it will also announce a new variant of Yuanhang 40 Pro Plus. The new hue option is officially called Starry Sky.

According to the official teaser poster, the Starry Sky color option will be a lighter version of Nubia Z40S Pro’s Starry Night Edition.

Apart from color, we don’t think the phone will differ in any other department. The brand is also not suggesting anything of the sort.

Therefore, we expect ZTE Yuanhang 40 Pro Plus Starry Sky Edition to arrive with the same set of features as the original model. Hence, it should feature a 6.67-inch FHD+ AMOLED display, MediaTek Dimensity 810 chipset. 64MP main camera, 16MP selfie camera, side-mounted fingerprint sensor, 4,510mAh battery, and 66W fast charging support.

The device will be likely priced below ¥2,500. For context, the regular model costs ¥2,198 for 8GB RAM and 256GB storage.

There weren’t any scheduled smartphone launches this past week. However, there were multiple silent releases.

On the other hand, two brands have confirmed to debut new phones next week. They will be unveiling a single handset each.

Both of these products will be announced in China. Most likely, these devices will remain exclusive to the region.

With that out of the way, let’s take a look at these forthcoming phones one by one.
