ZTE Axon 30 Review: The Invisible Selfie Camera gets an Upgrade!

ZTE were the first to bring Under Display Camera (UDC) tech to the mainstream with last year's Axon 20. And with the release of the Axon 30, we get a pretty good idea at just how much this technology has improved in the space of one year.

idk man, you make these phones' too aesthetically pleasing in my opinion

[Deathsead]

The intro was sooo good. Digging the vibes and aesthetics!

[TotusEius]

As an owner of the OP7Pro, I am actually very surprised the pop up front camera never took hold. Works like a champ 3 years going. Seems it will outlive the other tech of the phone.

Tell me more bout the OS. Ads? Bloatware?

Your videos are so satisfying. Great review as well

I love the under display camera!
The phone would have been perfect if it had a 5.8 inch version with audio jack...
I also love that they added expandable storage, can't live without it!

Hi please make a video about the mobile application lock

[unexon]

I don't use selfie camera in my current phone so bad quality of this under display camera wouldn't be a problem for me at all

[thisisartman]

Sam. You make these reviews too good. One day i'mma buy a phone even if you hated it just because you made a beautiful review. 🥲

[AryanKumar-icjh]

What aspect ratio is video
Its fits my new phone perfectly.

[mendellalvarado]

Mine won't let me change the launcher. 🙁

[ColdIce]

One issue (major issue) with ZTE devices is there followup on Software Updates and fixes., hardware has always been really wish ZTE would put more emphasis on Software and Updates. (I have owned almost every ZTE Axon device)

Hey! I use autoclickers for games, but after the latest android update the phone close every third part app as I open a game. Do you know a way around this? Any settings or apps that can help? Ty😀

[urielbeaupre]

you should also review the xiaomi mi mix 4. their implementation of under display camera is the best among the 3 (zte, samsung).

[chuff]

I love that companies are trying new tech, but man. . . . . the pop camera and the amazing OnePlus 7 Pro. That was the way to go. Especially considering the state of UDC tech. It's a no brainer. Give me the OP7Pro set up, but actually pair it with a top tier camera, and you have a golden setup.

[jayzee]

not sure what you mean, never have that repeated text issue, maybe its your carrier?

[Rachitdubey]

Hey man
I'd like you to import Iqoo 7 from India.
I think you'll enjoy that phone.

[mthabisimoyo]

What?
What?
What?
What?

Wifey probably thought he turned into Stone Cold

[cleopangestu]

Xiaomi has the same under display camera, could be better
Xiaomi Mix 4

iPhone video isn't a plus it's a con 🤣 I don't know what you reviewers are seeing with iPhone video but no iPhone has ever impressed me with video right up to the 12 pro. Paid by Apple I guess. More free phones to review if you slap an iPhone nod in your videos?
