Although ZTE has already unveiled the Axon 40 series, it seems the company is not done with the Axon 30 lineup yet. It recently released the Axon 30S, which has similar specifications to the Axon 30 and includes an under-display camera. So let’s get into the specs, features, availability, and expected price of the ZTE Axon 30S in Nepal.

ZTE Axon 30S Overview:

With the front under-display camera, the Axon 30S gives you a full-view screen for content consumption. The hidden camera area has a high pixel density of 400PPI, blending it in with the rest of the screen.

The Axon 30S features a quad-camera setup on the back headlined by a 64MP primary camera. Joining it is an 8MP ultrawide sensor, a 5MP macro lens, and a 2MP depth sensor.
