Editorial report

ZTE Blade A35 technical sheet

The ZTE Blade A35 is for people looking for a simple phone for basic tasks, with Android 14 and five years of operating-system updates. Its trade-off is limited hardware and camera capability: its 2 GB of RAM and 64 GB of storage are among the lowest figures for phones of its time, as is the 8 MP camera resolution.

The 6.75-inch IPS LCD display has a 90 Hz refresh rate, but its 262 ppi pixel density is lower than that of most phones of its time. Storage is expandable. The camera records video at 1080p and 30 fps. Everyday connections include dual Nano-SIM, Bluetooth 5.2, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, and a 3.5 mm audio jack. It also has USB Type-C and IP54 protection.

The 5000 mAh battery has less capacity than most phones of its time, while its 10 W charging power is among the weakest. The Blade A35 better suits basic communication and everyday essentials than anyone prioritizing camera capability or hardware resources. Its overall NeoScore is 3.0. This is an entry-level phone with clear limits in memory, camera resolution, and charging.
