When it comes to camera tech, ZTE went all out. The main camera is a dual 16MP and 5MP setup, however, the selfie-camera has an impressive 32MP resolution as well as ZTE’s ‘smart selfie’ technology. Backed by AI, ‘smart selfie’ “is used to adjust and perfect selfies taken with the high megapixel camera to create high-quality photos, without losing details in a backlit or low-lit environment.” In addition, the “technology and can identify 300+ scenes in preview mode to intelligently adapt corresponding camera technology and capture the best shots.” This type of AI camera integration we have seen before from other phone manufacturers like Huawei and LG, but it has been mostly relegated to pricier, flagship devices.
