After a small stop in the market, ZTE returns this year with new devices that seek to offer the best technology at a reasonable price. One of them is the new ZTE Blade V10, a terminal that stands out for including a 32 megapixel front camera with Artificial Intelligence. It also has a large screen with a drop-shaped notch to follow the current design trend in the mobile market.
Inside we find an eight-core processor, a tight amount of RAM and a 3,200-milliamp battery. In short, a very balanced terminal that will hit the European market next March. We are going to review its features in more detail.

32 megapixel front camera
One of the main features of the ZTE Blade V10 is its front camera. It has a 32 megapixel sensor that integrates AI “smart selfie” technology. This Artificial Intelligence system identifies more than 300 scenes in "preview" mode, intelligently adapting the camera in order to obtain better photographs.
At the rear it includes a dual camera system consisting of a 16 megapixel main sensor. This is accompanied by a second 5 megapixel sensor that controls depth. We do not have too many details about these sensors, but according to the manufacturer, the ZTE Blade V10 achieves clearer and more detailed images than its predecessor, the ZTE Blade V9.
Inside the terminal we have an Octa-Core processor whose model has not been revealed. We do know that it is accompanied by 3 or 4 GB of RAM, depending on the version. The internal storage also varies, which can be 32 or 64 GB respectively. The set is completed by a 3,200 milliamp battery that is charged through a USB Type-C port.
Screen with teardrop notch
The other great novelty of the ZTE Blade V10 is its design change. The new model sports a front with a 6.3-inch screen with an FHD + resolution of 2,280 x 1,080 pixels. Thanks to the incorporation of a drop-shaped notch for the front camera, a body-screen ratio of 90.3% is achieved. And it is somewhat minor since ZTE has decided to use a black frame at the bottom.
Otherwise, the terminal sports a curved design with the rear camera positioned in the upper left corner. The fingerprint reader is in the central position and looks the same color as the rest of the case. And speaking of color, the ZTE Blade V10 will be available in black, blue and green.
Price and availability
The ZTE Blade V10 will go on sale in Europe next March with a price yet to be determined. From ZTE they assure that it will be an economic terminal. To give you an idea, its predecessor was launched with an official price starting at 270 euros.
What we do know is that it will arrive in two versions. On the one hand we will have a model with 3 GB of RAM and 32 GB of storage. On the other hand, a somewhat superior model with 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of internal storage.
