Editorial report
ZTE Blade A72 3 GB / 64 GB / Global technical sheet
The ZTE Blade A72 suits buyers looking for a large display and a high-capacity battery who can live with modest memory. Its 6.75-inch display gives room for viewing content, and its 6,000 mAh battery is among the highest-capacity batteries in phones of its time. Fast charging is rated at 22.5 W.
This version pairs 3 GB of RAM with 64 GB of storage. Both are below what most phones of its time offer, and its hardware performance is among the weakest of that period. The IPS LCD display has 1080 × 2400 px resolution and a typical density of 390 ppi; its 90 Hz refresh rate is lower than that of most phones of its time. At 214 g, it also weighs more than most.
The 13 MP rear camera has lower resolution than most, and its f/2.2 aperture is among the weakest of its time. It records video at 1080p at 30 fps. Android 11, NFC, dual Nano-SIM and a 3.5 mm audio jack round out the features, while connectivity is worse than most phones of its time. Its overall NeoScore is 3.6. This is a fit for buyers who prioritize battery capacity and a large display and are comfortable with the limitations in memory, performance, and camera specifications.
