Better screen, better camera, and no notch
ZTE has revealed its latest smartphone to use an under-display camera, the Axon 30, which claims to achieve a better balance between those two elements than previous models.
Thenewly announcedZTE Axon 30 isnt the first 5G smartphone with an under-display camerathat distinction belongs to theAxon 20 5Gbut it does seem like an improvement.
While there is interest in a smartphone screen that isnt disrupted by a divot or notch to get to house a selfie camera, the Axon 20 5Gs selfie camera and screen justweren’t up to snuff.

ZTE is looking to change that with the Axon 30, boasting better screens and more advanced integration with the front-facing camera.
The entire point of an under-display camera is that its practically invisible, so Axon 30 is using an independent screen display chip to better synchronize the display around the camera.
This, along with the “in-house selfie algorithm,” should provide better display performance and improved transitions between the phones screen and the front-facing camera area.
ZTE also states that a larger light-sensitive selfie camera and added processing technologies will make the under-display camera more light-transmissive than its predecessors.
Aside from the under-display camera, the Axon 30 uses a Qualcomm Snapdragon 870G CPU as well as “self-developed memory fusion technology” to add up to 5 GB of running memory.
It also uses a 5G super antenna 3.1 to improve 5G connectivity, and a dual Wi-Fi antenna, so you wont block the signal when youre holding the phone horizontally or vertically.
The ZTE Axon 30 will be releasing in China on August 3, starting at 2,198 (about $338 USD).
Global pricing and availability details havent been revealed yet, but according to ZTE youll be able to find it on theofficial website"soon."
