ZTE Axon 30S unveiled with Android 12 and competitive pricing

ZTE unveiled its Axon 30S in China earlier today and as the name implies this is a slightly updated version of last year’s Axon 30. The core specs and design remain unchanged while the only noticeable difference is on the software side where the Axon 30S now boots Android 12 with ZTE’s MyOS 12.
