Design & Build Quality
Acer Super ZX
The Acer Super ZX is built with functionality in mind. At only 8.6mm thick, the phone feels slim and comfortable to hold. The glossy finish on the back panel makes it look sleek and more premium than its price indicates. The build of the phone is ergonomic, with volume rockers that are tactile and a power button located ideally for one-handed use.
Acer Super ZX Pro
The Super ZX Pro goes one step further. Not only does it have a sleek and robust design, but it is also IP64 certified, so it is dust- and splash-proof – a feature that is hard to find in this category. The matte-finish rear panel of the phone minimizes fingerprints while giving it a sleek, high-end look. The bezels' symmetrical look and AMOLED display add to its flagship-like look.
Performance & Processor
MediaTek Dimensity 6300 on Super ZX
Inside, the Acer Super ZX is fueled by MediaTek Dimensity 6300, a 5G-capable chipset made for entry and budget mid-range smartphones. It is built using a 6nm process and provides a combination of performance and power savings. It is efficient in performing regular tasks such as browsing social media, watching videos, and juggling multiple apps. Although it's not designed for hardcore gaming, it's still capable of playing games such as Subway Surfers, Call of Duty: Mobile (Low settings), and Asphalt 9 fairly well.
MediaTek Dimensity 7400 on Super ZX Pro
The Super ZX Pro, however, has the MediaTek Dimensity 7400 chipset, which is significantly more powerful and tailored for gamers and multitaskers. It can provide top-class performance in graphically intensive games, offers high refresh rates for smoother scrolling, and enables effortless switching between apps. This processor also features enhanced AI camera upgrades and improved network optimization for rock-solid 5G connectivity.
Camera Capabilities
Acer Super ZX
The Super ZX comes with a 64MP Sony IMX682 primary sensor, which is quite impressive for a device under ₹10,000. The sensor is famed for taking clean daylight photos with precise colors. It is accompanied by a 2MP depth sensor for portraits and a 2MP macro lens for close shots. The secondary sensors are relatively basic, but the Sony primary sensor handles the load and takes well-detailed photos with decent dynamic range.
Acer Super ZX Pro
The Super ZX Pro features a 50MP Sony LYTIA IMX882 sensor and Optical Image Stabilization (OIS), which is a better camera setup for both images and videos. OIS provides less shaky videos and clearer low-light images. The 5MP ultra-wide sensor is ideal for landscape photography or group photography, and the 2MP macro lens captures minute details. The Pro model obviously wants to be a photography buddy in the sub-₹20,000 segment.
Battery Life and Charging
Both phones have a 5000mAh battery which is the standard in mid-range and budget phones today. Whether watching content non-stop, viewing Instagram Reels, or gaming, the battery will easily get you through the day.
Both models also include 33W fast charging, which can refill the phone from 0 to 50% in roughly 30 minutes. It's not the quickest charging technology available, but it's reasonable enough for this price point and more than adequate for the majority of people.
Display
Acer Super ZX
The Super ZX has a 6.78-inch Full HD+ LCD display with a 120Hz refresh rate. The high refresh rate provides smooth scrolling and a better experience while gaming or scrolling through the UI. But since it is an LCD display, the blacks are not as deep, and color contrast is not as rich as on AMOLED screens. Nevertheless, in its segment, this is a good all-around offering for content consumption.
Acer Super ZX Pro
The Super ZX Pro, however, features a 6.67-inch Full HD+ AMOLED display that supports 120Hz refresh. AMOLED displays provide richer contrast, lower blacks, and richer colors, which make it perfect for anyone who consumes numerous videos, scroll through social media, or photograph edit on his or her smartphone. It further improves battery efficiency due to the capability to dim individual pixels on dark scenes.
Software Experience
One of the biggest highlights of both phones is that they run on Stock Android 15 out of the box. This means:
No bloatware or unnecessary third-party apps
Faster system updates
Smooth, lag-free performance
Enhanced privacy and permission management
In a world where most manufacturers add custom skins (often loaded with ads), Acer’s decision to go with a clean, stock Android experience is refreshing and highly appreciated.
Connectivity & Other Features
Both models come equipped with all the necessary connectivity and security features, including:
5G Network Support
Dual SIM Slots
Bluetooth 5.2
Wi-Fi 6
USB Type-C Port
Side-mounted fingerprint sensor and Face Unlock
GPS, Accelerometer, and Compass Sensors
The Super ZX Pro adds the benefit of IP64 dust and splash resistance, making it more durable in challenging environments.
Pricing and Availability in India
Acer Super ZX is priced starting at ₹9,990, making it one of the most affordable 5G phones in the country.
Acer Super ZX Pro starts at ₹17,990, and given its AMOLED display, powerful chipset, and OIS camera, it’s a strong mid-range contender.
Both models will be available for purchase on Amazon India starting April 25, 2025. Launch offers, bank discounts, and no-cost EMI options are expected to be revealed closer to the release date.
If you’re looking for a value-for-money 5G phone under ₹10,000, the Acer Super ZX is a no-brainer. It offers a Sony camera sensor, smooth 120Hz display, and clean Android with 5G support – an unbeatable combo in its segment.
If your purse can afford up to ₹17,990, the Super ZX Pro offers top-notch AMOLED experience, high-performance capable processor, superior camera performance coupled with OIS, and even ruggedness in the form of IP64. It's a wonderful all-around mid-range handset.
