Reviews for the ZTE Blade V40s

91% Review and comparison of ZTE Blade V40 Design and Blade V40s smartphones
Source: Root Nation English
The advantages of the V40 Design and V40S are only emphasised by the price of the devices. For instance, the ZTE Blade V40 Design costs ∼$147, while the ZTE Blade V40S sells for ∼$174. Even considering all the shortcomings of the latter devices, the price is just fine. As for the V40 Design, most competitors in the same price category offer a much worse screen, the same cameras and similar processors. However, the V40S has some interesting competition. For example, the Redmi 12 offers a better chip in the form of MediaTek Helio G88, but 2GB less RAM. But at the end of the day, it’s about the key features the phones offer. And the V40 Design/V40S predominantly wins with its style and price. That’s not a bad thing, as an extension of the existing line-up. And creating a brand identity is also a good decision.

ZTE Blade V40s Smartphone Review
Source: OI Spice Tech News English
The ZTE Blade V40s smartphone is an affordable phone that offers various attributes that a user generally needs from a phone. It has a large and decent display with sufficient storage and performance to support your daily life activities without any hassle. However, the optimization of the battery is fairly outstanding, which means that you will be able to play video games without being distracted by anything. There’s no denying that 5G connectivity is necessary, but when you are purchasing an affordable smartphone, you will need to sacrifice certain features in order to get the best price. Inside Malaysia, the Blade V40s are an incredible deal if you want to enjoy the internet and take lots of photos and videos. But we have to recommend an alternative phone. It would be the Vivo Y73t for better specs with 5G experience.

6.67":

It is a small display format for smartphones. You shouldn't be severely defective in vision, and you won't see much detail on the screen and only have a small resolution available. For that, the device should be small and handy, easy to transport.
