Evidence-based overview

Zeno 20 Max technical sheet

The itel Zeno 20 Max runs Android 14 and uses a 6.6-inch IPS LCD with a 20:9 aspect ratio. Its documented display specifications include 720 × 1,612 pixels, 267 ppi, a 90 Hz refresh rate and peak brightness of 1,500 nits. The body weighs 187 g, measures 8.6 mm thick and comes in Black, Titanium and Blue. IP54 is also listed, although that specification does not establish protection in every use case.

Hardware consists of an octa-core Unisoc T7100 clocked at 1.8 GHz, PowerVR GE8322 graphics, 4 GB of DDR4 RAM and up to 64 GB of expandable eMMC 5.1 storage. Recorded Geekbench 6 figures are 164 for single-core and 725 for multi-core; these are documented results, not tests performed by NeoTeo. Connectivity includes LTE, Dual Nano-SIM, USB Type-C, a 3.5 mm audio jack, GPS and Galileo. Wi-Fi support reaches Wi-Fi 4 (802.11n), while Bluetooth is version 4.2.

The 5,000 mAh Li-Ion battery supports 15 W charging, and the listed battery features include a charger in the box. The 13 Mpx rear camera records 1080p video at 30 fps and includes HDR plus manual controls; the front camera has 5 Mpx. On the documented evidence, this phone suits users who value a 90 Hz display, high battery capacity, dual-SIM support and expandable storage, while accepting older Wi-Fi and eMMC 5.1 storage.
