ZTE Axon 30 Ultra has not one or two but three 64MP cameras
ZTE has announced the successor to its Axon 20 5G that was launched last year as the first commercial smartphone with an under-display selfie camera. While it didn’t get positive reviews for the tech used, it looked cool. Now, LG is abandoning the idea of an under-display selfie shooter and has gone with a punch-hole cutout for the front camera. Moreover, the Axon 20 5G was a mid-range device. That’s changing too.
The ZTE Axon 30 Ultra is an outright flagship that comes with impressive features. It features a 6.67-inch AMOLED curved display. It supports a variable refresh rate of up to 144Hz (with 60Hz, 90Hz, and 120Hz variable options) and a 300Hz touch sampling rate. Moreover, the display has support for HDR10+ and comes with a 10-bit color depth. It lies under the protection of Corning Gorilla Glass 5.
The device weighs under 200 grams at 188 grams. It is powered by the flagship Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 SoC, paired with Adreno 660 GPU. It comes with 8GB / 12GB of LPDDR5 RAM and 128GB / 256GB of UFS 3.1 storage with support for a microSD card. It packs a 4,600mAh battery, which can be juiced up via 66W fast charging with the in-box charger.
In the optics department, you get an interesting quad rear camera setup. The Axon 30 Ultra sports a 64MP Sony IMX686 with an f/1.6 aperture and OIS support. It is accompanied by a 64MP ultra-wide angle lens with a 120-degree field-of-view and another 64MP camera. There is an 8MP telephoto lens as well that supports OIS, 5x optical zoom 10x hybrid zoom, and 120x digital zoom. On the front lies a 16MP selfie shooter.
The Axon 30 Ultra comes with dual speakers and DTS:X Ultra sound. You get an in-display fingerprint scanner as well. The phone will be available in Black, Gold, Green, and White colors in China starting April 19. It will also launch in the US but we don’t know the exact date yet.
ZTE Axon 30 Ultra Price:
-
- 8GB + 256GB- 4,698($719)
- 12GB + 256GB- 4,998($765)
- 16GB + 1TB- 6,666 yuan($1,021)

ZTE’s wild Axon 30 Ultra packs three 64MP cameras and an 8MP periscope lens
It's only fair to share...
What’s the first name that comes to your mind when talking about ridiculous smartphone camera specs? Samsung, likely for the Galaxy S21 Ultra, or HUAWEI’s P40 Pro+ with its impressive zoom camera. And just last month, the Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra further upped the ante with its imaging hardware that includes a 50MP main camera, a 48MP ultra-wide-angle snapper, and a 48MP periscope-style telephoto camera. Now, China’s ZTE plans to one-up the competition with its upcoming Axon 30 Ultra flagship. And by one-up, I mean really outclassing the competition.
As per official teasers, the ZTE Axon 30 Ultra has three 64MP cameras at the back, sitting alongside an 8MP periscope zoom camera. Yes, you read that right. The primary snapper uses a 64MP sensor, there is a 64MP ultra-wide-angle camera, and a third 64MP camera for portrait photography. Rounding off the impressive camera hardware is an 8MP folded lens/periscope-style telephoto camera that is said to deliver an impressive 5x optical zoom range.
ZTE’s teasers make a big deal about the video stabilization capabilities of its upcoming camera. Officially confirmed to launch on April 15 in China, the ZTE Axon 30 Ultra will likely be limited to its home market. As for the rest of the specs, it is rumored to arrive with an AMOLED panel that offers 120Hz refresh rate and 360Hz touch sampling rate for a smooth and ultra-responsive experience.
The Axon 30 Ultra will reportedly come equipped with Qualcomm’s top-of-the-line Snapdragon 888 SoC ticking alongside 12 gigs of RAM and 512GB of onboard storage. However, more storage configurations might be on the table as well. A 4,500mAh battery is rumored to keep the lights on, and it will reportedly support 55W or 65W fast charging.
Rumors also point towards a 44MP front camera, but there is no word if it is going to be a regular one housed inside a hole-punch cutout, or it will be an under-display camera. ZTE has already announced plans for its second-gen under-display camera technology, so it is quite likely to make an appearance on the Axon 30 Ultra.

200MP Samsung sensor with 16K video recording could be coming soon
Samsung is tipped to be working on a whopping 200MP ISOCELL sensor. According to the latest leak, it could debut with the ZTE Axon 30 Pro smartphone. It is rumored to come with support for up to 16K video recording capabilities. Plus, it might support 4-in-1 and 16-in-1 pixel binning to reduce noise in photos. It could work alongside the company’s in-house Exynos 1080 SoC, which supports up to 200MP camera sensor. For the unaware, Exynos 1080 is a 5G chipset built on the 5nm process.
According to the details shared by WHYLAB on Weibo, Samsung’s upcoming 200MP sensor has model number S5KGND. As per the leak, this image sensor measures 1/ 1.37-inch and has 1.28-micron pixels. The sensor is said to be able to record 16K videos. Moreover, it is claimed to have support for 4-in-1 as well as 16-in-1 pixel binning technology, which is used to reduce the noise in photos and offer enhanced images. Surprisingly, this 200MP sensor is allegedly not debuting on a Samsung phone. Instead, it is tipped to be equipped on the upcoming ZTE Axon 30 Pro.
The smartphone is also rumored to come with second-generation under-screen camera technology. It could feature a 6.9-inch 1080p or 1440p display. It could feature a 120Hz refresh rate. The smartphone is tipped to pack a 4,700mAh battery with support for “super fast charging.” Unfortunately, that’s all we know about the upcoming smartphone as of now. As per a Weibo post by ZTE President Ni Fei, the smartphone will come equipped with “the industry’s strongest imaging system”.
There is no word on the official launch date of the sensor or the upcoming ZTE Axon 30 Pro, but we should be getting more information as we head towards the launch.

ZTE Axon 30 5G to feature 2nd-gen in-display camera
ZTE launched its Axon 20 5G as the world’s first Under Display camera phone last year. It went on sale recently. It is a premium mid-range model. The device received overall positive response from the reviewers. However, the selfie camera quality was a problem. Now, it seems like ZTE is working to improve it. The company is gearing up to launch a second model with an Under Display camera. It will be called Axon 30 Pro 5G.
Moreover, a tipster @TheGalox_ has now revealed the specs of the device. The ZTE Axon 30 5G is tipped to be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 SoC. It could feature a 6.9-inch 1080p or 1440p display. It could feature a 120Hz refresh rate. The smartphone is tipped to pack a 4,700mAh battery with support for “super fast charging.” The upcoming smartphone will be the industry’s first flagship phone equipped with second-generation under-screen camera technology.
For its ZTE Axon 20 5G, there is a dual-control chip and a unique driver circuit that solves synchronization problems of color and conventional displays when using an under-display camera. ZTE created a special matrix that optimizes pixels to improve display consistency and create a more natural transition of pixels.
The company says that it has achieved a full view display effect while maintaining the same level of performance of the front camera by adapting a special material with high euphotic rates achieved through new organic and inorganic film, which improves light input to the front camera. Further, the smartphone also includes additional under-display technologies, including ambient light, sound, and fingerprint sensors to achieve a true full screen without hole punches. To recall, it is powered by the Snapdragon 765G SoC.
