ZTE Blade V40 Design technical sheet
The ZTE Blade V40 Design suits people looking for a large-screen phone for viewing content and using apps. Its IPS LCD display measures 6.6 inches and has a resolution of 1080 × 2408 px, with a density of 400 ppi. The 4500 mAh battery is its main trade-off: it has less capacity than the batteries in most phones launched around the same time. Fast charging is rated at 22.5 W.
The screen takes up 87% of the front surface, a higher share than on most phones released around the same time. The phone also weighs 183.4 g and is 8 mm thick, both lower figures than those of most phones from its time. The display uses a 20:9 aspect ratio.
Its 50 MP camera has an f/1.8 aperture and records video at 1080p and 30 fps; these are typical camera specifications for phones of its time. It is joined by a 2 MP macro camera and an 8 MP front camera, which also records at 1080p and 30 fps. The Unisoc T616 is paired with an octa-core CPU, 6 GB of RAM, and 128 GB of expandable storage. Android 12, NFC, USB Type-C, and a 3.5 mm audio jack round out the features. This is a fit for anyone who prioritizes a spacious display and a light, slim design, and is comfortable with a lower-capacity battery.
