Editorial report
ZTE Axon 30S 12 GB / 256 GB / China technical sheet
The ZTE Axon 30S suits buyers looking for a large AMOLED display and a camera with optical stabilization; its trade-off is a 4,200 mAh battery with less capacity than most phones launched around the same time. The 6.92-inch display has a 120 Hz refresh rate, while its 80.8% screen-to-body ratio is lower than most phones of its time. At 7.8 mm thick, it is among the thinnest of its era.
This version pairs 8 GB of RAM with 128 GB of storage, and the phone is also sold in a 12 GB / 256 GB configuration. The Snapdragon 870, DDR5 RAM and UFS 3.1 storage accompany an AnTuTu score of 814,600, higher than that of most phones launched around the same time. The camera's 64 MP resolution is also higher than most; optical stabilization and 4K video recording at 60 fps are included.
Connectivity includes 5G, NFC, Wi-Fi 6 and dual SIM, placing it better than most phones launched around the same time. Its 55 W charging power is also higher than most, though the battery capacity is lower. With an overall NeoScore of 6.5, the Axon 30S is a stronger fit for buyers who prioritize the display and camera than for those who put battery capacity first.
