Editorial report
ZTE nubia A57 technical sheet
The nubia A57 suits buyers looking for a slim, relatively light phone with a large display for everyday tasks. Its main trade-off is the hardware: performance, camera capability and battery figures are worse than most phones of its time, leaving its overall verdict among the weakest of its generation.
Its 6.75″ IPS LCD display runs at 120 Hz, a typical figure for its time, while 256 ppi and 740 nits are worse than most. The 98.8% usable surface is among the best of its time. The body is 7.95 mm thick and weighs 193 g, making it thinner and lighter than most phones of its time. IP64 provides dust and water protection.
The Unisoc T7250 comes with 4 GB of RAM and 128 GB of eMMC 5.1 storage. Storage is expandable, but both RAM and capacity are worse than most phones of its time. Android 16 and direct OS updates strengthen the software offering. The 13 MP rear camera is among the weakest of its time and has no optical image stabilization. The 5,000 mAh battery and 22.5 W charging are also worse than most.
Dual Nano-SIM, Bluetooth 5.2, USB Type-C, a 3.5 mm audio jack and GPS, Galileo and GLONASS cover the main connections. With a NeoScore of 4.0, the nubia A57 is better suited to buyers prioritizing display, size and basic features than to those seeking strong camera hardware, performance or battery figures.
