Barcelona, Spain - February 25, 2018 – ZTE Mobile Devices today announced the new ZTE Blade V9 smartphone, featuring a full screen design and industry leading low-light camera capabilities that empower consumers to explore the world and experience more.

The sleek and effortless design of the ZTE Blade V9 features an industry leading screen-to-body ratio of 83.6%, and provides a superior user experience that allows consumers to quickly and efficiently navigate with minimal reach. Furthermore, the dual camera low-light technology enables consumers to capture clear and stunning nighttime photographs and experience low-light photography like never before.

Low-light Camera

With the ZTE Blade V9 low-light camera, consumers can now capture those moments that make us wonder and dream, the moments that feel magical, the moments when we fall in love, and the moments when the world around us fades away. There is something special about the night, and the ZTE Blade V9 camera enables consumers to capture this magic.

The low-light camera also provides consumers greater freedom – we are no longer limited by daylight, and we no longer have to settle for less at night. We can find the perfect shot right now, anytime.

The ZTE Blade V9 delivers exceptional low-light camera capabilities through a dual lens 16MP camera, a larger aperture to capture more light, a 6P lens for reduced distortion, and next-generation PDAF 2.0 for 40% faster focus speeds.

Full Screen and Screen-to-Body Ratio

The ZTE Blade V9 5.7 inch FHD+ screen and 18:9 aspect ratio provide expanded views for photos, videos, internet browsing, and video games. With the ZTE Blade V9, we are providing more screen for the smartphone body:

- Longer screen (18:9) views allow users to quickly and more efficiently browse through content.

- Faster and more efficient navigation due to industry leading screen-to-body ratio of 83.6%.

- Wider views for photos, videos, internet browsing, and video games.   

- More opportunities for unique combination photos.   

“To provide meaningful innovation that enables consumers to experience more of the world around them is the best part of my job, and it is what truly motivates me,” continued Cheng. “We hope as consumers experience and explore more with leading features such as the low-light camera, they will share those experiences with us.”
