ZTE Axon 20 5G Unboxing (First Phone With Under Display Camera) By GSMDome

Hi guys this is jsn. com, and I'm here with the unboxing of this special phone, it's called the at axon 25g, and it's the world's first commercial phone with a selfie camera under the display. Yes, it has come to that we've seen a bunch of prototypes, but finally we have a commercial one, and this is what it looks like. So under this screen at the top side rests a selfie camera, which I look forward to showing to you. Now. The handset should be priced at around something like 450 to 500 dollars.

It's a huge device, it's diagonally dangerously close to seven inches, which was the diagonal of a tablet. A few years ago. The back side catches the light in an interesting manner and the device debuted in September in a global version and in Europe it came in December, okay, so a quad camera super heavy range phone with the selling point being the premiere, the selfie camera hidden under the display panel. Now I'm going to explain this technology for you a bit. It appears that there are two panels overlapped, two screens basically, and one of them is a lower resolution and when you try to take selfies, this area here becomes transparent, letting you take those selfies.

So ZTE is a company. We don't often interact with. We do interact with their gaming phones from the Nubia department. I think we should be more careful with this input- lovely wallpaper, which is also dynamic, and, let's see, what's inside the box, some lovely high-tech sounds, and here you can find the metal key used to access the slots as well as a pretty important. I would say case because you don't want a huge behemoth of almost seven inches slipping from your hand.

This is if it's quite thick, so it will protect the device, it's silicon, and it's transparent inside the box as well. There's this bigger box here which holds the charger. It's got an USB a connector and let's see here it promises up to 33, 30 watts of charging and anything else. Nope no kinder surprises here. Okay, so we proceed further, and here we should find the cable.

It goes from USB to USA hooks up to the charger or to your PC. If you don't believe in wireless transfers- and here we have an adapter which goes from USB to audio jack, it definitely tells you that there is no audio jack on the device. So when I say audio jack here, of course, 3.5 millimeter classic audio port, we are done. That's everything inside the box, no headphones, just in case you're wondering okay. So there's that- and this is the beast that I have to show you.

So I think it's time to reveal some aspects here now, if you're, on a white background, let me turn down the brightness a bit if you're on a white background, you're going to notice something interesting: okay, there's a square here which is a bit more pixelated, I'm going to zoom in, so you can properly see it. So that's the square which is hiding the selfie camera. That's the exact placement of the selfie camera that just in case you were wondering now. Why are big device makers, placing the cameras under the screen? The answer is simple: they want to get rid of the notches, the cutouts and the punch holes and make the screen more immersive with slimmer, bezels and a whole viewing surface. In spite of that, we have quite a big chain here now, if you want to talk about the design, this is glass beautifully shaped.

We have a metal frame here, which is quite protruding, so it helps with the grip and glass at the front as well. Now we don't have a clear mention: if we're dealing with gorilla, glass or not, but glass, plus metal plus glass equals a premium build. I keep mentioning that it's almost 7 inches in diagonal. Well, it's actually 6.92 inches. At least you have a quality OLED panel with a 90hz refresh rate, which I actually want to confirm.

So you go here, and here we go 90hz refresh rate. The resolution is 2460 over 1080 pixels and inside this baby we have a familiar CPU. The Qualcomm snapdragon 765 g, which defined the super high mid-range segment in 2020. Octa core, is seven nanometers, and it's accompanied by let's see uh eight gigs of ram and 120 gigabytes of storage plus micros. Now the battery may smell uh seem a bit small for a huge screen, 4220 William per hour.

Excuse me so 404 hot excuse me 4 220 million per hour with 30 watt fast charging which, on paper, promises up to 60 charge in just 30 minutes now, even though we get some bells and whistles, we don't get the whole full package and full treatment. We just get a singular speaker here at the bottom. This panel holds three components: there's the selfie camera under the display. There is the in display optical fingerprint scanner and there's also the replacement for the earpiece. If you look closely, there's no slit here for any sort of earpiece, it uses a special piezoelectric vibrator to make the panel vibrate and deliver the sounds during your calls.

Just like the Huawei P30 Pro and p40 pro did, and just in case you want to know that about the selfie camera um, it's a 32, megapixel shooter and, as you can see it lights up when it's becoming in use and as the screen area becomes transparent, so 32 megapixels at the front side for the selfies. Well, at the back side, this module feels like the one you'd see on a Xiaomi or a Huawei phone. It includes a 64 megapixel main shooter, which takes 16 megapixel shots by combining the pixels f, 1.8 aperture, there's an ultra-wide 8 megapixel camera as well, and 2, megapixel micro camera and 2 megapixel both camera. We have one led flash here and also the promise of 4k 60 frames per second capture, which is actually not bad, and also you can take full 32 megapixel shots. You aren't taking any sort of interpolation selfie shots here, they're, actually the full resolution ones.

Now, as far as the connectivity is concerned, this device can deliver 4g and 5g, as well as Wi-Fi dual-band: Bluetooth, 5.1, GPS, ages, glass, Galileo and BDS. Plus. You should also offer payments via NFC at the bottom. There's an USB 3.1 port, and here you can see the slot which is accessible via the key you saw before. I think that's pretty much it here.

You can see the buttons close to each other two volume buttons and a stripe to reached power button easier to find in the dark. And of course I want to check out the camera interface uh, okay, so it's pretty snappy and has quite a few options, and I was surprised by the quantity of video options. You can shoot 4k video. I have a special movie mode and time-lapse and slow motion plus vlog. In the more section there is mono macro panorama, watermark manual document, 64, megapixels mono is actually interesting because it's not exactly monochrome it lets.

You pick some colors uh. We have some studio lighting options here for the portrait there is a night mode and both is being kept separate from portrait uh because it doesn't search for faces. It can be applied to objects. So, in a nutshell, this is the innovation you're getting there's a special area here at the top side, hidden in the screen which hosts a selfie camera. Sadly, the rumors you've heard are well quite true.

I have taken my share of pictures with this device and I have to see that the selfies are a work in progress, we'll be back with more in the full review, but so far some of them have been blurry more about that when the review is finalized. This is from json. com, we'll back with more soon bye, bye.
