The ZTE Axon 20 5G is the world’s first smartphone to feature an under-display camera and an under-display fingerprint scanner. The ZTE Axon 20 5G comes with a 6.92-inch OLED display and four cameras on the back. The gadget includes a slew of new capabilities, and the good news is that it’s a low-cost handset. It has a 6.92-inch OLED display and a 64-megapixel back camera.
Design and Display
The rear of the ZTE Axon 20 5G is constructed of ten layers of high-hardness 3D curved glass. Vacuum optical coating is used on the back side to create a nano-level streamer illusion texture.
Its overall measurements are 172.1 x 77.9 x 8 mm, and it weighs 198 grams. The phone features an under-display camera, which is the phone’s key selling point and has a significant impact on the design of the display.
It has a 6.92-inch OLED screen that supports 10-bit colour depth and covers 100% of the DCI-P3 colour gamut. Not only that, but the display also features a 90Hz high refresh rate, a 240Hz touch sampling rate, and an accurate full-screen view. The resolution is 2460 x 1080 pixels in FHD+.
The under-screen camera was created utilizing five fundamental technologies, according to the business, including specific materials, dual-control chips, unique driver circuits, a customized pixel matrix, and an in-house selfie algorithm.
ZTE also uses a high-transparency material for the display, which helps to balance the display’s and front camera’s performance. Inorganic films and novel organic materials were used in the material, which increased the light intake of the display region to the front camera.
Furthermore, to achieve colour synchronization between the camera and the traditional display, a built-in independent dual-control chip and integrated driver circuits were used.
In addition, ZTE developed a specific matrix that optimizes pixels and improves display uniformity, resulting in a more natural transition. The performance of the ZTE front camera has been improved. It also has support for automated dynamic range adjustment, which improves the clarity and contrast of photos.
On the other hand, there’s an under-screen speaker and a fingerprint scanner onboard. Isn’t it true that everything appears to be hidden behind the screen? Let’s take a closer look at the camera.
Camera
It has a quad-camera arrangement on the back, which is stacked in the upper left corner. A 64MP Ultra-high pixel primary camera is included in the camera. An 8MP 120-degree ultra-wide-angle camera, a 2MP depth of field lens, and a 2MP macro lens are also included.
ZTE also included unique features like dual-LED dual-tone flash, HDR, and panorama in the cameras. The selfie camera is a 32 MP sensor hidden beneath the display.
