Is it any good?
The Zeno 5G is itel's value pick for 5G: ₹9,299 for 4GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. It is for someone who wants a 5G phone that can take a splash, and does not want to pay City 300 5G money for it.
The money buys a MediaTek Dimensity 6300, a 6.67-inch HD+ screen at 120Hz, a 50MP main camera that records 2K video at 30fps, an 8MP selfie camera, a 5,000 mAh battery with support for 18W charging, an IP54 rating, an infrared blaster and a body 7.8mm thin.
The catch is its twin. The A95 5G lists the same chip, screen, cameras, battery and rating with 6GB of RAM instead of 4GB for ₹9,999. If you keep a lot of apps open, the extra ₹700 is worth paying; if not, the Zeno 5G is the smarter buy.
