ZTE announces a new 5G Axon smartphone compatible with SA/NSA modes

SHENZHEN, China, Dec. 16, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- ZTE Corporation (0763.HK / 000063.SZ), a major international provider of telecommunications, enterprise and consumer technology solutions for the mobile Internet, today announced the latest flagship smartphone ZTE Axon 10s Pro, which is compatible with both 5G SA and NSA modes. This device will be commercially available in China in the first quarter of 2020. Based on Android 10, ZTE Axon 10s Pro is empowered by the new flagship Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 865 5G Mobile Platform that features the Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ X55 5G Modem-RF System, the world's most advanced 5G mobile platform.

ZTE Axon 10s Pro features the latest Wi-Fi 6 technology, which provides users with the incredible speed of up to 1.2 Gbps (laboratory test data) and low latency, especially in crowded environments where many devices share limited network resources.

In addition, ZTE Axon 10s Pro supports multiple network connections, allowing users to connect this device to two wireless networks, such as 2.4GHz and 5 GHz, simultaneously for higher stability and faster speed.

ZTE Axon 10s Pro has a unique advantage of seamless switching from Wi-Fi signals to LTE or 5G networks, due to the link-booster network enhancement solution, which enables an intelligent response to the complicated signal environments through the self-developed high-speed algorithm and smart perception. The device will evaluate whether the current network is good enough for use, then automatically transfer to LTE or 5G data connection for better internet experience and lower latency.

In addition to the latest Snapdragon 865 Mobile Platform, the smartphone also features the latest LPDDR5 RAM memory and UFS3.0 ROM storage, which offer higher operating efficiency and quicker read/write speed.
