The ZTE Blade A35, released in September 2024, is an affordable smartphone packed with essential features for entry-level users. In this review, we’ll look at the key specs of the ZTE Blade A35 and see how it stacks up against its competitors in the budget smartphone market. Key Features of ZTE Blade A35 Design and Build Quality The ZTE Blade A35 offers a sleek polycarbonate body with a 3D curved-line texture that enhances grip and aesthetics. It is lightweight and durable, making it a solid choice for those who want a phone that can handle everyday wear and tear. Available in Starry Black and Clover Green, the A35 has a stylish look despite its highly affordable price range. In comparison, within a slightly lower price range, the Itel A50C has a bulkier design, weighing 192.6 grams, and lacks the refined texture of the Blade A35. The other competitors ZTE Blade A54 and Symphony Atom 5, also feature plastic bodies, but with slightly different finishes. Within the 10000TK price range, the Blade A54 has a side-mounted fingerprint sensor, offering a more modern feel. While the Symphony Atom 5, within around 8500 TK price range, is also slim and light but lacks the Blade A35’s textured grip.

This provides a decent viewing experience that is suitable for everyday tasks like watching videos or browsing social media. However, the 720p resolution is standard in this price range and performs well for most users. The Itel A50C has a slightly smaller 6.56-inch water drop HD display with a similar resolution, offering a comparable viewing experience. However, the ZTE Blade A54 falls behind with its 6.6-inch IPS LCD screen.  Camera Performance The ZTE Blade A35 features an 8MP rear camera and a 5MP front camera. While these cameras can capture decent shots in good lighting, low-light performance is subpar, which is typical in this segment. The camera comes with features like night mode and panorama for enhanced photo quality.
