The flagship phone comes with stereo speakers as well, although a headphone jack is missing.
ZTE's new flagship will ship with Android 10 out of the box, featuring the MiFavor 10 skin on top. However, the company is yet to reveal precisely when the Axon 10s Pro will go on sale or how much it will cost.
