Editorial report
ZTE S30 8 GB / 128 GB / China technical sheet
The ZTE S30 suits anyone looking for a slim, light 5G phone; the trade-off is a 4000 mAh battery with less capacity than most phones launched around the same time. At 7.9 mm thick and 184 g, it keeps its dimensions and weight modest for a phone with a large display. Its design and display are typical for its time, though the screen-to-body ratio is higher than that of most phones launched around the same time. The 6.67-inch IPS LCD has 1080 × 2400 px resolution and a 90 Hz refresh rate.
Connectivity is better than that of most phones launched around the same time. The S30 supports 5G, NFC, Wi-Fi 6 and two Nano-SIM cards with Dual SIM Dual Standby. Bluetooth 5.1 and a 3.5 mm audio jack are also included. The 64 MP resolution and 1/1.72-inch sensor are better than those of most phone cameras of its time, while the camera overall is typical and lacks optical image stabilization. Video recording reaches 4K at 30 fps.
The 4000 mAh battery has less capacity than most phones of its time, while 30 W charging is typical. The ZTE S30 runs Android 11 but has no Google Services. Its NeoScore is 5.4. It is a sensible fit for buyers who put 5G connectivity, a large display and low weight ahead of greater battery capacity.
