Editorial report

ZTE Axon 40 Lite 4 GB / 128 GB / Americas technical sheet

The ZTE Axon 40 Lite suits buyers who prioritize a large AMOLED display and a relatively light phone, while accepting limited RAM and a battery with less capacity than most phones launched around the same time. Its 6.6-inch display has a 1080 × 2408 px resolution, and its 87% screen-to-body ratio is higher than that of most phones launched in the same period. At 182 g, it also weighs less than most of those phones.

The configuration shown pairs 4 GB of RAM with 128 GB of expandable storage. The Unisoc Tiger T616 has an octa-core CPU, while its AnTuTu v9 result of 221,000 is worse than that of most phones launched around the same time. The main camera has a 50 MP resolution and an f/1.8 aperture, both typical figures, but no optical image stabilization. Overall, its camera is worse than most. Its 4,500 mAh battery has less capacity than most phones of its time, while fast charging is rated at 22.5 W.

Connectivity overall is worse than most phones launched around the same time. The Axon 40 Lite has Wi-Fi 802.11a/b/g/n/ac, Bluetooth 5.0, a 3.5 mm audio jack, and a single Nano-SIM configuration. Its overall NeoScore is 4.6. It is best suited to buyers who value the display and lower weight, and can live with limited RAM and a smaller battery.
