Editorial report

ZTE Axon 30 5G 8 GB / 128 GB / North America technical sheet

The ZTE Axon 30 5G suits anyone looking for a large, smooth display, with a smaller battery capacity than most phones launched around the same time as its main trade-off. Its 6.92-inch AMOLED panel pairs 120 Hz with 400 ppi; both refresh rate and pixel density are higher than those of most phones of its time. At 7.8 mm thick, it is also among the thinnest of its contemporaries.

The Snapdragon 870, 8 GB of RAM, and UFS 3.1 storage give this version a capable hardware setup; its AnTuTu result of 814,600 is better than most phones launched around the same time. Connectivity is also better than most: the phone supports 5G, Wi-Fi 6, NFC, and dual SIM. Its 64 MP camera resolution is higher than that of most phones of its time, and its 1/1.7-inch sensor is larger than most. Optical image stabilization is included, and the camera overall is better than most phones launched around the same time.

The 4,200 mAh battery has less capacity than most, while 65 W fast charging offers more power than most phones of its time. The phone is sold in configurations from 6 GB / 128 GB to 12 GB / 256 GB, including other combinations in between. With a NeoScore of 6.4, the Axon 30 5G is a strong fit for buyers who prioritize its display, camera, and fast charging over battery capacity.
