While the just announced ZTE
Axon is heading exclusively to the United States, ZTE has another
smartphone that will be available to other countries. The Chinese smartphone
maker’s new Blade D6 should offer those outside the US who desires an Axon some
consolation.
The phone is built around a 5-inch 720p IPS display and is
powered by a 64-bit MediaTek chip with a 1.3GHz quad-core processor, a
Mali-T720 GPU, 2GB of RAM and 16GB of expandable storage.
At the back is where you’ll find a 13MP camera with
dual-tone LED flash. The phone also has a 5MP selfie camera with an 88-degree
wide angle lens, a 2200mAh battery, 4G LTE connectivity, Bluetooth, GPS, Wi-Fi
and dual-SIM functionality.
The ZTE Blade D6 runs on Android 5.0 Lollipop and is built using
high-grade aluminum alloy. ZTE hasn’t announced pricing details yet, but says
the phone will be available in the coming weeks initially in Japan, Russia and
Australia.
