Enjoy the amount of choice consumers have right now ~

    this phone shows why the ROG Phone 8 Pro is a huge downgrade for a gaming phone. This "normal" phone handily beats that phone in battery life, now that's embarrassing. They even have a notchless screen, and it ain't a gaming phone. Add the fact that this phone has a "class leading camera" compared to whatever the ROG Phone put out and that phone just got deleted. Everyone clowned on ZTE because it's not as good as other phone but Asus gets praised for selling an iPhone Pro Max priced phone that's actually like a base iPhone with more refresh rate. Idk why every chinese manufacturer needs their own skin like ZTE isn't gonna be selling millions of copies so no point in trying to have a brand image or something, just stick with a stock android skin with slight tweaks and update more, I think that's much easier to handle than updating heavy android skins. Whatever the case, great phone right here. Only the fact that the design is one a mother could love is a problem, the Z50S Pro was kinda stunning and they could've done that but anyways bravo ZTE, for being brave enough to go and increase the battery size for more battery life. This is what most manufacturers should do, optimisation on android will only get you so far and nerfing the CPU outside of performance mode (like Oneplus) is only a crutch. Plus according to LL Techview their performance mode actually is yk, a performance mode. It lets the phone loose and gets hot af. That's the power a user should be given. Like I got the phone let me go ham with it. Creating performance tiers for the performance mode is also an option. I don't understand why manufacturers baby their users, if someone f*cks around and finds out that the phone gets scorching hot in the performance mode and complains they should go back to kindergarten.

        It's not possible for gaming time is 10 hours it's bee 3 hours

          Anonymous, 28 Jan 2024Lower resolution screen + 1000mAh more than other. Differ... moreYou cant be serious. Samsung have worst UI ,worst ram, disk space and battery management mostly thanks to UI adnd other bloatware inside every phone.
          Any pure android experience have much more endurance,
          Just look at Sony V 5 or Sony 10 V for example. And thats a 6.1 inch phone.

          This Z60 eultra is far better than any Samsung you can name.

            Anonymous, 28 Jan 2024Almost 4400mAh. That is not small. Also, this value sho... moreIt will easily go for 2 full days of regular usage..

            "Almost 4400mAh.
            That is not small."

            It's not huge either. Battery life also depends on the OS and it's optimization, and of course the chipset itself. Android vs iOS, there is a huge difference there already, these two aren't comperable.

              DarlingYext, 28 Jan 2024Okay, and did it need a huge battery? No, absolutely not.Almost 4400mAh.
              That is not small.
              Also, this value should give almost 2 days at moderate use.

                    justasmile, 28 Jan 2024Oops, my bad, I forgot to reset it to the default slider. ... moreIt's not poor because it's not apples to apples. Of course the iPhone gets better battery life. There are other factors at play. Heck, there are numerous Android phones with 2K screens. That driving resolution alone is going to eat more battery than the iPhones Max resolution which isn't 2K. I agree that iPhones with their custom chips are more efficient. But you have to put it into correct context if you're going to make the argument as to why.

                            justasmile, 28 Jan 2024Z60 Ultra would be worse. 1000mah bigger, but barely better.What do you mean barely better? It's more than 2,5 hours ahead.. and it doesn't matter what would be, what matters is that it IS better.

                            It's also half the price of what the S23 Ultra was when that launched, with comparable cameras, an uninterrupted display with less bezels, and there is that battery life as well.

                            I'm not comparing it with the current S24 Ultra, as that one hasn't been scored yet when it comes to battery life. However apart from the battery, same things apply, and maybe even that as well, we'll have to wait for the battery test.

                            Of course there are disadventages, like software support and the terrible front camera, but people buying this phone know that, and they won't care about them.

                                  By that logic the S23 Ultra's battery life is also weak, because it's not even close to the active use time that the iPhone 15 Pro Max could achieve, let alone being able to beat it, and 5000mAh is still a lot bigger than 4441mAh, so it "should be" better.

                                      But 6000mah only matching a 4400mah+ phone is just poor.

Why is it your life's mission to bash this phone every chance you get? 😂 Upon recieving it a couple days ago I got 3 updates, and with direct comparison to members of my family, who have iPhone 14 Pro Maxes and a 15 Pro Max, the 14 gets beaten in all camera situations, including video, while the 15 is more than comparable.. a phone 3 times the price. Everything besides camera is pretty much subjective, besides maybe the LTPO on the iPhones but the Z60 ultra makes up for it with a 6000mah battery, plus an IR blaster.
