ZTE debuts foldable smartphone with dual screens (Specifications)

We have been hearing rumors about the new ZTE Axon M foldable smartphone for some time, the handset is now official and we have all the details and specifications on this new Android device.

Featuring 5.2-inch full HD screens on both its front and back, in a way, the Axon M brings a bit of the 2-in-1 spirit from the laptop market into the smartphone world. But then, it goes one step further by letting you combine both screens into one big-ass display, albeit with a not-so insignificant gap running down the middle.

While the Axon M is a bit thick thanks to its dual screens, those screens also let ZTE simplify its design by equipping it with just one 20-megapixel camera. That means the same camera you use for regular shots is the one you use for selfies too, which could be a boon for people looking for super-high resolution narcissism. All you have to do is point the phone where you want to shoot and switch the viewfinder, instead of the camera, from one side to another as needed. You also get a decent, but not super new Qualcomm Snapdragon 821 CPU, 4GB of RAM, 64GB of storage and microSD card expandability.

Specifications of the ZTE Axon M:

– OS: Android 7.1.2 Nougat
– Display: 5.2-inch, 1080 x 1920 pixels
– Storage: 64GB, expandable up to 256GB
– RAM: 4GB
– Processor: Snapdragon 821
– Camera: 20MP rear + front
– Battery: 3180mAh

The Axon M is exclusive to AT&T customers in the US and is set to hit availability in November. It’s been priced at $24.17 for 30 months on AT&T Next. The smartphone will eventually make its way to Japan, China and Europe.
