Itel Zeno 5G+ Full Specifications
Display and Design
The Zeno 5G+ sports a 6.67-inch HD+ IPS display with a 720 x 1612 pixel resolution and a punch-hole cutout for the front camera. The panel delivers a smooth 120Hz refresh rate and a 240Hz touch sampling rate, ensuring responsive scrolling and gaming. Pixel density sits at 260 ppi, which is respectable for the price bracket.
Performance and Memory
Under the hood, the phone is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 octa-core processor, built on a 6nm fabrication process. The chip pairs Cortex-A55 cores clocked at up to 2GHz with a Cortex-A76 core reaching 2.4GHz, delivering capable multitasking performance for its class. The device ships on Android 14 out of the box.
Itel's proprietary Memory Fusion technology allows the 4GB RAM variant to virtually expand to 8GB (4GB physical + 4GB virtual), while the forthcoming 6GB variant can reach up to 12GB of effective RAM. The phone uses LPDDR4X RAM technology. Internal storage is 128GB on the base model.
Camera, Battery, and Charging
Photography duties are handled by a dual rear camera system headlined by a 50-megapixel main sensor with an F/1.6 aperture, accompanied by LED flash and a secondary light sensor. For selfies and video calls, there is an 8-megapixel front-facing camera.
Powering the device is a robust 5,000 mAh battery that Itel claims can deliver up to 32 days of standby time on a full charge. The phone supports 18W fast charging, though it should be noted that the included charger in the box is rated at only 10W — users who want the full 18W charging speed will need to use a compatible third-party adapter.
