About ZTE Blade A520
The ZTE Blade A520 feels compact in the hand, measuring 71.6 mm wide, 143.5 mm tall and just 7.9 mm thick while weighing a modest 137 grams. Its 5‑inch TN‑TFT LCD screen delivers a 720 by 1280 pixel resolution, offering clear visuals for everyday tasks and media consumption on a modestly sized display.
Under the surface, the device runs Google Android 7.0 Nougat and is equipped with 2 GiB of RAM to handle multitasking and app usage. Power comes from a 2400 mAh battery, and the phone supports a single SIM card for connectivity, all brought together by ZTE’s entry‑level offering in the Blade lineup.
Compared to the base Blade A520, this variant reduces the RAM to 1GiB and increases the chassis thickness to 8.4mm.
It differs from the other Blade A520 versions by offering only 8GB of internal storage while the global LTE models and the China TD‑LTE model provide 16GB, and by pairing that storage with 1GiB of RAM whereas the global LTE models ship with either 2GiB or 1GiB RAM but are intended for international markets and support LTE rather than TD‑LTE.
Although its name hints at dual‑SIM capability, the spec sheet shows a single SIM slot, setting it apart from the dual‑SIM configurations of the global LTE and the other China TD‑LTE variant. These combined differences in memory, thickness, storage, region, network type and SIM arrangement define this particular Blade A520 variant.
