Editorial report

ZTE Axon 30 5G Ultimate Edition technical sheet

The ZTE Axon 30 5G Ultimate Edition suits anyone looking for a large, smooth display and capable hardware for varied tasks; its trade-off is a battery with less capacity than most phones launched around the same time. The 6.92″ AMOLED display runs at 120 Hz, a higher refresh rate than most phones of its time. At 7.8 mm thick, the phone is also among the slimmest of that period.

Performance and hardware are better than most: this version pairs 12 GB of RAM with 256 GB of storage and scores 814,600 in AnTuTu v10. Its 64 MP camera resolution is higher than that of most phones launched around the same time, and its 1/1.7″ sensor is larger than most. Optical image stabilization is included. Fast charging at 55 W has more power than on most phones of its time, though the 4,200 mAh battery has less capacity than most.

The phone runs Android 11 but has no Google Services. With an overall NeoScore of 6.5, it is a good fit for anyone who prioritizes the display, memory and camera; the smaller battery capacity and lack of Google Services are the points to weigh.
