ZTE Debuts Axon 11 5G Mid Range Phone with Curved Screen

Last year at MWC Barcelona, ZTE jumped on the 5G bandwagon with the Axon 10 Pro 5G.

A year later, as MWC was unfortunately cancelled due to the coronavirus situation, ZTE announced its new offerings online.

Meet the Axon 11 5G, a midrange device that still offers some interesting features.

The Axon 11 5G catches the eye with very thin bezels (ZTE says it has a 92 percent screen-to-body ratio) and a  6.47-inch fullHD+ curved display with a fingerprint scanner embedded.

While the ZTE Axon 10 Pro had at the time a flagship Snapdragon 855 chipset, the ZTE Axon 11 chooses the Snapdragon 765G mid-range octa-core processor with liquid cooling and 5G connectivity.

The phone will launch in three models, starting with 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage, offering a middle ground at 8 GB RAM and 128 GB storage and a top of the line combo with 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB of storage.

All three models of the ZTE Axon 11 5G also have microSD and allow you to upgrade to 2 TB of storage.

Also worth mentioning that all the devices have a hybrid dual SIM setup, which means you can either use a SIM card and a microSD card for extra storage, or two SIM cards.

On the back of the phone, you’ll find a quad camera that gathers a 64 MP f/1.9 sensors, an 8 MP f/2.2 ultrawide sensor, a 2 MP f/2.4 sensor for macro and a 2 MP f/2.4 sensor pulling macro duties.

On the front, you’ll find a single 20 MP sensor with an f/2.0 aperture.

Everything is powered by a 4,000 mAh battery supporting fast charging at 18 W.

As for the price, expect to see it at around 360 euros when it launches worldwide (well, maybe not the US).

In China, the Axon 11 5G starts at around $380 or CNY 2,698.
