Editorial report
ZTE Blade A5 (2019) technical sheet
The ZTE Blade A5 (2019) is suited to basic phone use, but its 2 GB of RAM and 2,600 mAh battery are significant limits next to phones of its time. At 157 g, it weighs less than most, and the 5.45-inch IPS LCD display keeps the phone compact. Its 295 ppi pixel density is below average, a compromise for anyone who prioritizes display detail.
Its 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB of storage are below what most phones of its time offer. Storage is expandable, providing room to add files. The rear camera has 13 MP resolution, an average figure, and records video at 1080p at 30 fps. Its f/2 aperture is less bright than that of most phone cameras of its time. The front camera has 8 MP resolution.
Connectivity includes Dual Nano-SIM, LTE, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, and Bluetooth 4.2. GPS, GLONASS, a 3.5 mm audio jack, and FM radio are also included. Its 2,600 mAh battery is among the smallest-capacity batteries in phones of its time, a major drawback for anyone looking for more battery capacity. The Blade A5 (2019) is best kept to calls, messaging, and simple tasks: its light weight is a plus, while limited memory and battery capacity narrow its appeal. It has no NeoScore because its documented features do not cover enough categories to calculate one.
