ZTE Axon 30 Ultra 5G review

200 million pixels! That's what the cameras on the back of the ZTE Axon 30 Ultra 5G add up to. And since more is better, the Axon must be the ultimate...

High-quality build, minimal bezels, standout rear design.

144Hz refresh rate really only available for the base UI, display colors are off by default, peak brightness is lower than on competitors.

All things considered, though, we can give the ZTE Axon 30 Ultra 5G a recommendation. It'll be a particularly good fit for those looking to take nice pictures without springing the cash for the true no-holds-barred flagships that can run you twice the...

ZTE Axon 30 Ultra Review

Handsome design ; Excellent performance ; Creative camera module ; Fast 65W charging

Poor connectivity ; No wireless charging ; No IP rating ; Software upgrades aren't guaranteed

The ZTE Axon 30 Ultra looks great and performs like a champ, but the phone’s spotty connectivity combined with ZTE’s uncertain future makes it a hard sell.

ZTE Axon 30 Ultra review: the right stuff for the right price

A big screen and top-shelf performance for $749.

Excellent performance ; Big, fast refresh rate screen ; Great camera hardware

Image processing is a mixed bag ; No IP rating ; Doesn’t work on Verizon

The Axon 30 Ultra is a premium Android phone with high-end features that costs less than the competition. It offers a big 6.7-inch screen with a fast 144Hz refresh rate, a Snapdragon 888 chipset, and four rear cameras including a 5x optical zoom lens.

ZTE Axon 30 Ultra review: A step in the right direction

Can ZTE make a flagship comeback and compete with the best? Find out more in this ZTE Axon 30 Ultra review.

Classy hardware

ZTE’s first true flagship phone in years is an excellent effort. The Axon 30 Ultra is a finely crafted piece of hardware that covers most of the basics in terms of features and performance.

ZTE Axon 30 Ultra review, one month later: A question of commitment

Do you miss the days when you could get a spec-heavy smartphone for less than a thousand bucks? Well, you're in luck because ZTE is finally launching a

ZTE Axon 30 Ultra Review: A Great Phone in Its Own Right

If you've looked into the ZTE Axon 30 Ultra at all, then you'll know that most reviewers and enthusiasts are pointing to it as an affordable alternative to the Samsung Galaxy S21. I think that's a disservice to the Axon 30 Ultra, which is really a...

Flagship performance ; Awesome 144Hz display ; Impressive, flexible camera selection ; 65-watt fast charging ; Android 12 update coming late 2021 or early 2022

No wireless charging ; No IP water resistance rating ; Doesn't work on Verizon, poor 5G compatibility ; Often over-processes photos ; Can't turn off camera shutter sound

ZTE Axon 30 Ultra 5G Review: An underdog in the Canadian phone space

The latest flagship device from ZTE has some nice surprises but its not the absolute best phone out right now.

Solid Android 11 skin ; thin design ; Great camera

Zoom lens is a gimmick ; Bad haptics ; Not waterproof

If you have around $1,000 to burn on a phone and you want something unique, the ZTE Axon 30 Ultra 5G is totally usable and even offers a few surprises.

ZTE Axon 30 Ultra review: ultra-good value

ZTE has packed all the features you want into the Axon 30 Ultra, but with a price tag you'd expect attached to a far more basic phone.

Great value for money ; 144Hz display ; Excellent portrait and telephoto photography

Uncomfortable design ; Poor 5G compatibility in U.S. ; Unrefined user experience

Fortunately, the ZTE Axon 30 Ultra doesn’t have to be. Its current price is low enough that it's easy to overlook those shortcomings. ZTE’s made a real flagship-killing phone with the Axon 30 Ultra, and it should be your top choice if you want the...
