The first time I saw pictures of ZTE Blade V40s, I thought "oh, new Huawei"... And here's a surprise: ZTE reached for a design theme with two lenses on the back...

So far, the camera frame in the form of two large circles has been characteristic of Huawei and Honor smartphones. Later, in a slightly changed form, flashed in the compact Asus ZenFone 9 - and now it went to the mid-range ZTE model. How does the new ZTE Blade V40s look like? Evaluate the visual side according to your own taste, and I will only indicate that it is not a phone that is too distinguished by its equipment.

It has a screen with a diagonal of 6.67 inches, Full HD+ resolution and a standard refresh rate of 60 Hz - but AMOLED. Interestingly, probably due to savings, the fingerprint reader was left on the side of the housing, instead of hiding it under the screen. Maybe it's better... The heart of the smartphone is the UNISOC Tiger T618 processor, which comes in a set with an expandable internal memory of 128 GB and an operating memory with an unspecified capacity yet - but with the option of virtual expansion by 2 GB.

ZTE Blade V40s also received a battery with a capacity of 4500 mAh, recharging with 22.5 W, and an 8-megapixel selfie camera. Contrary to appearances, the two-part rear camera frame hides three matrices: 50, 5 and 2 Mpx - additional ones are responsible for wide-angle and macro photos. The smartphone measures 163.5 x 75.8 x 7.6 mm and weighs 184.1 g and comes in black or blue. The housing has an IPx2 protection against water and the estimated the price of this model is 249 euros.
