Comparisons Featuring ZTE Blade A52

Short Review

  • The ZTE Blade A52 features a practical design with dimensions of 168 x 77.5 x 9.4 mm and a weight of 214 grams, available in Space Gray, Silk Gold, and Crystal Blue.
  • Its 6.52-inch IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 720 x 1600 pixels, providing decent clarity with a pixel density of approximately 269 ppi, though it lacks HDR support.
  • Performance is driven by the Unisoc SC9863A chipset, featuring an octa-core CPU and 2GB of RAM, which handles basic tasks adequately but may struggle with more demanding applications.
  • The camera system includes a 13 MP main sensor, complemented by 2 MP macro and depth sensors, capable of recording video at 1080p@30fps, while the 5 MP front camera serves well for selfies.
  • A robust 5000 mAh battery ensures extended usage, although charging is limited to 10W and lacks wireless capabilities.
  • The device runs on Android 11, providing a familiar user interface without any significant customizations.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and NFC, with a USB Type-C port for charging and data transfer.
  • The absence of 5G support may limit future-proofing, but the inclusion of a headphone jack is a positive feature for audio enthusiasts.
  • Overall, the ZTE Blade A52 is a straightforward smartphone that meets essential needs without extra frills.
