Tomorrow, ZTE will release the Axon 40 line of smartphones (May 9). The Chinese company has not confirmed the number of Axon 40 versions that will be introduced tomorrow, but it looks that there may be three: the Axon 40, Axon 40 Pro, and Axon 40 Ultra.

How to watch the ZTE Axon 40 series launch event
Tomorrow at 2 p.m. (local time), the Axon 40 series will be launched. The event will take place in China and will be live-streamed on ZTE's Weibo account. It is unknown whether ZTE intends to sell the Axon 40 range outside of China. As a result, there is no word on its global release.
ZTE Axon 40 series – what to expect?
It goes without saying that the Axon 40 Pro flagship phone may be tomorrow's main attraction. Since 2020, ZTE has been the only manufacturer to release phones featuring an under-display camera. The Axon 20 5G, which debuted as the first phone with an in-screen camera, was unable to capture high-quality selfies, and its front camera was easily visible. The under-display camera on the Axon 40 Pro, on the other hand, is nearly invisible.
The region where the front camera is located is believed to be indistinguishable from the rest of the screen due to altered pixel structure. As a result, the phone may provide a full-screen experience. Furthermore, the screen has extremely curved edges. The smartphone also has a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset and triple rear cameras with 64-megapixel resolution.
Other variants in the Axon 40 family include the Axon 40 and Axon 40 Pro, although specifics on their specs are lacking. Please see our roundup piece for more information on each of them.
