ZTE launches dual screen foldable smartphone named Axon M

Chinese mobile devices provider ZTE has launched a dual screen foldable smartphone in the US. The device called Axon M features two 5.2- inch screens that can be folded to the size of a traditional smartphone.

For specifications, the ZTE Axon M features two 5.2-inch dual full-HD TFT LCD displays with Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protection. It is powered by Snapdragon 821 SoC, which may seem slightly outdated. It comes with 4GB of RAM and packs 64GB inbuilt storage. Interestingly, there's a 20-megapixel single camera which can be used for rear and front-facing shots. The rear camera comes with f/1.8 aperture. The Android 7.1.2 Nougat-based handset packs 3,180mAh battery and supports Quick Charge 3.0 fast charging.

The ZTE Axon M has three unique modes to accommodate the various needs of the user. With dual mode, the users can open different apps on each screen simultaneously. For example, the user can watch a game of football on one screen while texting to a friend on the other screen simultaneously. The mirror mode allows people the option of sitting across each other and watching the same content on one device.

AT&T will be exclusively selling the ZTE Axon M in the US next month, and the device will eventually be available in China, Europe, and Japan. The price of the smartphone hasn't been revealed yet.
