    Looking at the performance of both this and x100 pro, I am curious to know how an soc with 8 x Cortex-A720 cores would perform. It has a very high chance of being exceptional.

      That is the best design ever

        Is it just me or are the articles of GSMArena no longer consistent in including Software and Security updates, OS's track record and how brands are handling their promises and updates in their software reviews anymore? Or is there a good reason?

          I don’t like those boxy shape corner. It is not comfortable in gaming.

              I think the stability and cooling solution can be improved over time so the issues regarding stress tests may not relevant anymore after software upgrades. IMO it's still the better phone than the Pro+ and a really nice phone for extended gaming.

                    I bet the heating is a software bug but damn. that's a tad shameful coming from a supposed gaming phone. €649 is on the other hand a CRAZY price, I'll definitely get one.

                      All the cameras on this thing are piss-poor. I know that isn't the main focus of this device, but they're letting decent hardware go to waste.

                        Sounds pretty nice but i have few issues with this one.
                        1) The software support should be mentioned and longer than EOL when the next model comes out in 6months
                        2) does it have full google services like G pay with no issues
                        3) Thermal handling seems to be step back

                        Maybe i'll just wait for the S model if they have smoothened the hardware bugs by then

                          Anonymous, 18 Dec 2023I ask the question again: why on earth does a gaming phone ... moreSo, according to you, ppl that want this phone will never use it for anything else but games.
                          How about zte also remove the ability to make calls?

                          🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️ .... Type of stuff I see here.

                            It seems that the battery is optimized for watching video only

                              Will it have any software update, like all the ZTE phones? I wonder.

                                I am kinda shocked that a freaking FAN EQUIPPED GAMING PHONE couldn't even finish the wildlife extreme test!!
                                WTF!
                                It was the very testnutnwas supposed to crush everything else on!

                                Sorry but that's unacceptable

                                  so, in the frequency response graph for the speakers, WHERE is the ostensibly red line denoting THIS phone's response? don't you guys proofread basics like that?

                                    Anonymous, 18 Dec 2023No camera bump, no camera hole, 6500mah battery. This phon... moreI preferred better camera and my phone is dead now in 2 years. I understood why it died, it was the heating issue. I've learned my lesson. Since then I've decided to buy gaming devices only, whether it's PC or a Smartphone. Two things that can kill electronics easily are - Heat and Water. Gaming devices are robust, has excellent cooling system, operating system also comes with tons of customizable features, etc. And since you're talking about camera on a gaming, let me tell you they aren't that bad, and of course the recent gaming phones have improved their camera significantly. I'm phone less now, in future if I buy smartphone I'll definitely go for a gaming device.

                                      I ask the question again: why on earth does a gaming phone have cameras? Apart from possibly the front facer, it does not need any back cameras, let alone multiple ones. I think customers would be ok to buy them cheaper.

                                        720p screens are rare today. Majority use 1080p.
                                        So many above $500 are at least 1220p.
