Let’s talk about budget smartphones. Itel, a name under the Transsion tech family, just pulled back the curtain on its newest model. This Chinese brand, known alongside TECNO and Infinix, introduced the Zeno 20. It builds on the Zeno 10, which came out earlier in 2025. This phone arrives with a friendly starting price of 5,999 Indian Rupees.
You might wonder what kind of phone you get for that kind of money. The Zeno 20 answers that question well. It sports a 6.6-inch HD+ IPS LCD screen. This means colors look crisp and clear. Plus, it has a smooth 90 Hz refresh rate. This helps everything on screen move nicely at 90 frames per second.
Powering the Zeno 20 is a Unisoc Tiger T7100 chipset. This chip runs at up to 1.8 GHz. You can get it with either 3 GB or 4 GB of RAM. Storage options are 64 GB or 128 GB.
For taking pictures, the Zeno 20 includes a 13-megapixel main camera on the back. Up front, there’s an 8-megapixel camera for selfies. The phone runs on Android 14 Go Edition. Google designed this version to make apps run smoothly even on less powerful phones. Keeping the lights on is a big 5,000 mAh battery. The phone also has an IP54 rating. This means it can handle dust and splashes from any direction.
It also comes with some handy extras. You can use voice commands with the Aivana 2.0 digital assistant. This assistant understands Hindi. Plus, it features DTS audio for a better sound experience.
The Itel Zeno 20 is available on Amazon India. You can pick from three colors: Starlit Black, Space Titanium, or Aurora Blue.
