This isn't as consistent a problem as the shutter lag, but it did happen on multiple occasions in my experience with ZTE's phone. Besides the pokey camera performance, we found a few other areas where the Blade 10 Prime fell short of our expectations — especially when it came to longevity on a charge. Disappointing battery life You expect to sacrifice power, camera quality and design with cheap smartphones, but the one thing you shouldn't have to give up is battery life.
Apparently, ZTE never got that memo, because the Blade 10 Prime put up disappointing numbers in Tom's Guide's custom battery test, eking out just 7 hours and 2 minutes from its 3,mAh battery. To put that into stark perspective, that's less than half the endurance of the Moto G7 Power, which turned in a staggering 15 hours and 35 minutes of web surfing on 4G LTE and currently sits atop the list of the longest-lasting smartphones we've ever tested.
In working on this review, I charged up both the Blade and G7 Power before one weekend, and then proceeded to use them intermittently over the next couple days.
The Nokia's longevity still isn't excellent, though it's much closer to the average smartphone. Seven hours on a charge from the Blade 10 Prime is just not good enough, especially given the sacrifices buyers already make with a handset this cheap. A solid display that's far too dim In the grand scheme of things, the Blade 10 Prime's 6. The full-HD resolution suffices, and the In fact, the screen on ZTE's phone puts the Nokia 4. What's more, with a color accuracy score of 0. However, the Blade 10 Prime underperforms when it comes to brightness. This panel peaks at a measly nits, which is not especially impressive.
In contrast, the G7 Power topped out at nits, ensuring comfortable outdoor viewing on a sunny day. The Blade 10 Prime's screen often looks dim indoors by comparison, and that's never a good sign. That's a shame, because on those rare occasions where the Blade 10 Prime's screen is bright enough to satisfy ambient conditions, it doesn't look half bad. Having viewed the very same scene in a theater, I was impressed with the fidelity on ZTE's phone. Yet that still doesn't make up for the fact that during most of my time with the Blade 10 Prime — including when I watched that trailer — I needed to crank the display's brightness to the max.
And if it had been possible for me to set it even higher, I would have. For everything ZTE's phone gets right — the respectable performance and solid image quality, first and foremost — it gets hung up in other areas, like with its short battery life and a display that's so dim, it can be hard to see outdoors. It uses a beam of infrared light to transmit information and so requires direct line of sight and operates only at close range.
