ZTE’s upcoming bezel-less flagship, the ZTE Axon 40 Ultra, got certified in China. In addition to that, the phone’s real-life images also surfaced, a couple of them.

ZTE’s bezel-less flagship got certified, while its real-life images are also here

This smartphone managed to attract quite a bit of attention online due to its design. It looks like ZTE got inspired by the Galaxy S22 Ultra design, and decided to improve upon it.

Instead of all the rear cameras separately poking out of the phone’s back, ZTE included a camera island on the back, though the rear camera design does resemble the Galaxy S22 Ultra. The phone’s overall design does as well.

The shape of the phone is also reminiscent of the Galaxy S22 Ultra. Unlike Samsung’s flagship, this handset does not have a display camera hole. ZTE decided to utilize an under-display camera here, it seems.

The Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 will be included, along with three 64MP rear cameras

You can check out the phone’s real-life images in the gallery below, while we’ll talk about its specs now. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 SoC was confirmed by ZTE, and the same goes for three 64-megapixel cameras. The phone will include wide-angle, ultrawide angle, and periscope cameras on the back.

The phone’s certification did fill in the gaps, along with some earlier leaks. A 6.8-inch fullHD+ (2480 x 1080) AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate will also be a part of the package. It will be curved, quite a bit.

The phone will launch in 8GB, 12GB, and 16GB LPDDR5 RAM variants. 128GB, 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB UFS 3.1 flash storage models are also mentioned. Android 12 will come pre-installed on the phone, along with ZTE’s MyOS 12 skin.

You’ll also get 80W wired charging, and an under-display camera

A 5,000mAh battery will also be included, while the device is said to support 80W wired charging. It seems like wireless charging won’t be a part of the offering, but we’ll have to wait and see.

A 16-megapixel under-display camera will also be included, and the same goes for an in-display fingerprint scanner. We’re guessing that it’s going to be an optical fingerprint scanner, but we’re not sure.

The device will, of course, support 5G connectivity. Bluetooth 5.2 will also be supported, and a Type-C USB port will sit at the phone’s bottom. The phone is said to measure 163.28 x 73.56 x 8.41mm, and weigh 204 grams.

This smartphone will become official on May 9 in China. It remains to be seen if it will launch in more markets.
