"ZTE Axon 20 5G marks the beginning of ZTE's new product strategy," said Mr. Ni 
Fei, President of ZTE Mobile Devices. "Smartphones will serve as our core area 
of product innovation. Meanwhile, we will also be committed to developing 
personal and family mobile broadband products, smart wearable devices, and 
other new products that enable a smart life seamlessly connected to 5G 
scenarios."

The World's First Under-Display Camera Powered by Five Core Technologies

As the world's leading manufacturer of smart terminals, ZTE has been committed 
to breaking through the under-display camera technologies. By virtue of the 
five core technologies, including special materials, dual-control chips, unique 
driver circuits, the special pixel matrix, and the in-house selfie algorithm, 
ZTE has overcome numerous technical challenges during the research and 
development.

To balance the performance of the display and the front camera, ZTE has adopted 
high transparency material that includes new organic and inorganic films, 
thereby improving the light input to the front camera. 

Moreover, a built-in independent dual-control chip and integrated driver 
circuits have been employed to enable the color synchronization between the 
front camera and the conventional display. Besides, the unique driver circuit 
layout design and precision miniaturization components have been used to avoid 
the interference, and restrain the impact on the front camera.

In addition, ZTE has created a special matrix that can optimize pixels and 
improve the display consistency, thereby creating a more natural transition.

Furthermore, ZTE's front-camera selfie algorithm has optimized the performance 
of the camera under several lighting conditions, and supported automatic 
dynamic range adjustment, hence the great improvement of the photo clarity and 
the image contrast.

Revolutionized User Experiences with A True Full Display

ZTE has leveraged additional under-display technologies, including ambient 
light, sound, and fingerprint sensors to achieve a true full screen without any 
punch holes. The innovative light sensor can automatically adjust the screen 
brightness in accordance to the light environment, allowing the display to be 
seen clearly anytime.

As the world's first under-display camera smartphone, ZTE Axon 20 5G marked 
another milestone in the exploration of the true full display smartphone. It's 
equipped with a 6.92-inch OLED display, and supports 10-bit color depth as well 
as 100% coverage of DCI-P3 color gamut, making the display performance reach 
the digital cinematic color standards.

Moreover, the FHD+ resolution and OLED materials have made the display color 
clearer and more beautiful. By virtue of a length-width ratio of 20.5:9 and the 
DTS:X Ultra 3D sound, the device can deliver a cinematic experience. 

Design Comes First

With the thickness of only 7.98mm, and the ultra-thin design of double shoulder 
lines, ZTE Axon 20 5G has inherited the sleek style of ZTE Axon Series. 

The 3D curved glass on the back contains ten layers of structural stacks, which 
have been carefully crafted with 36 different processes to create a unique and 
gorgeous texture. The Axon 20 5G comes in four vivid colors, including blue, 
black, purple and orange.

In addition, ZTE has collaborated with the well-recognized UK illustrator Sam 
Falconer to create an exclusive package for ZTE Axon 20 5G. The design aims to 
encourage young people to explore more possibilities of the current 
technologies, by artistically representing the great contributions made by four 
well-known scientists to mankind.

Strengthened 5G Experiences with Super Antenna 2.0

ZTE Axon 20 5G features the upgraded antenna technology to ensure an ultra-fast 
5G experience anytime and anywhere. ZTE's Super Antenna 2.0 is a cutting-edge 
PDS antenna with a 360-degree surround integrated design and intelligent 
closed-loop tuning technology, which can improve network connection stability 
and download speed. 

Moreover, twelve different antennas have been integrated into the outer surface 
of the middle frame, which are further away from the motherboard and internal 
components, thereby allowing a more sensitive signal receiving and quicker 
network searching. 

Even on high-speed railways, the handovers can still be made between a private 
high-speed rail network and a base station network, ensuring high-quality 
calls. In addition, the network signal stability is guaranteed in elevators, 
underground garages, and other weak-signal environments.

Compatible with the networks of four major Chinese operators, ZTE Axon 20 5G 
features intelligent network acceleration technology, which has increased the 
download rate by 30%, according to the test results of ZTE's lab, and 
intelligently avoided frequency bands with congested signals.

Integrated Functions for Video shooting and Editing

ZTE has made continuous efforts in improving the video functions of its 
smartphones, in a bid to meeting the requirements of younger users in the 5G 
era. 

ZTE Axon 20 5G features a 64MP super HD main camera that supports 4K 
high-resolution video at 60fps, super night scenes, video beauty and real-time 
HDR video in multiple lighting conditions. In addition, the main and wide-angle 
lenses support image stabilization, which helps shoot videos of higher quality. 

Moreover, the camera software features six intelligent templates to produce 
stylized videos, which can intelligently match different styles of music with 
special transition effects. In addition, the unique full-screen film recording 
mode, with a ratio under 20.5:9, can support portrait bokeh and portrait 
beauty, providing a further video customization. 

Furthermore, the AI voice subtitling shooting mode provides powerful video 
editing functions, such as splicing, speed change, regional cropping, filtering 
and background music, so as to make video editing more convenient.

Comprehensive Performance for Excellent Experiences

Powered by the Qualcomm(R) Snapdragon(TM) 765G mobile platform, ZTE Axon 20 5G 
features a new-generation full-scenario system optimization engine. Underpinned 
by the engine, the startup speed of those high frequently used apps can be 
increased by 40% while the gaming and video experiences have also been 
improved, according to the test results of ZTE's lab. 

In addition, the latest MiFavor 10.5 UI system supports movie-level screen 
optimization and smart screen projection while the large 4,220mAh battery can 
support 30W Quick Charge and a 5G power saving mode that improves battery life 
by 35%. 

Furthermore, ZTE Axon 20 5G is equipped with nine temperature sensors to 
precisely detect the temperature. The heat dissipation capabilities are 
improved through a triple intelligent heat dissipation system, which includes 
liquid cooling circulation, carbon nanofiber thermal pad, and graphite 
material. The smartphone remains cool while users are playing games, viewing 
short videos, or watching movies.

The launch of ZTE Axon 20 5G has demonstrated ZTE's capabilities of addressing 
consumer needs and its strength in technical R&D and product innovations. 
Moving forward, ZTE will continue to devote itself to building an intelligent 
lifestyle for consumers seeking young, high-tech, fashion-forward brands.
