Since ZTE released its first Axon smartphone, we should look forward to ZTE Axon 2, but it is amazed us that it has released ZTE Axon 7 smartphone which is high-end smartphone called monster phone. ZTE Axon 7 is not well-known its high-end hardware, but the nice user’s experience. So today we will share the experience about ZTE Axon 7 for you in the following aspects.
Design
ZTE Axon 7 has kept the design as the first generation of ZTE Axon, but it has changed a lot in details. It has added two walnut wood tiles up and down the screen frame to enrich dual speaker. Meanwhile, it becomes thinner from 9.3mm to 7.9mm thickness and it uses curved metal unibody desgin to make it much thinner which has better grip feeling when we hold it first. It weighs 175g heavier than previous model. It has removed dual camera to be equipped with 20MP camera with F1.8 aperture to support optical image stabilization which is more powerful than before. It also support fingerprint scanner to unlock the screen faster. There is one feature we don’t satisfy is that the place of fingerprint module is a little low, so i can have better use this function by my hands. But it will depend on different people about this habit.
Display
ZTE Axon 7 still uses 5.5inch 2K AMOLED screen instead of IPS screen, which brings more vivid and clear screen color and effect. But there is a little problem that the overall screen color of ZTE Axon 7 is lower than the last generation, it is a challenge to watch the video under the strong light outdoor. Meanwhile, it supports force touch which is best until now in Android OS. As you know, there is difference between top version and advanced version is that it’s real button under the screen rather than visual button. I will not be used to using these three buttons because other two buttons are so close to the home button. I need time to be accustomed to these buttons.
Hardware
ZTE Axon 7 as the flagship of ZTE is powered by Snapdragon 820 processor, RAM 6GB ROM 128GB and supports 128GB tf card expandable. It has dual independent audio chipset, AK4961+AK4490 and independent crystals and secondary compensation circuit. Its camera can also support optical image stabilization and so on. What’s more, it has 13W antutu test score.So you don’t worry about its performance. After optimization of OS, when i use it normally, it occupies 1.6GB OS, I feel there is not much different in RAM 4GB and RMA 6GB Version, unless you do multitasking and play large games.
Software
ZTE AXON 7 runs MiFavor 4.0 UI OS based on Android6.0 OS, its overall design has not much difference from the last generation with MiFavor3.2 UI. After adjustment of new OS in optimizing functions, it can support voiceprint unlock function. The MIFavor 4.0 UI enables us to log two wechat accounts at the same time.

Camera
ZTE AXON 7 this time adopts 20MP main camera to support optical and electronic image stabilization which can take the nice photos such as stars. You can set up simply to take nice pictures. We have shared some photos from ZTE AXON 7 camera. It’s OIS stabilization and F1.8 big aperture have been helpful for taking photos.
Network
Network is one of the most important features that ZTE attaches great importance to. It supports dual sim card, dual standby and all Chinese network frequency with 7 mould 22 frequency, it can support CDMA BC0/1/10. UMTS/HSPA B1/2/4/5/8, LTE B1/2/3/4/5/7/12/13/17/20/25/26/29/30/41,LTE 2CA B2-B4/B2|4-B12/B2|4-B5/B2|4-B5/B25-B25/B41-B41. So you can see it can be used in most European and America countries. There is no need to worry about the signal problem.
Battery
It supports QC 3.0 quick charge built in 3250mAh battery which can charge the phone from 0 to 100% in 87 to 91minutes. After 5 hours using, it has 31% power left. So we can conclude the overall usage is from 13 hours to 15 hours for daily use. It will reduce 1.5 hours under heavy use.
