A 13MP sensor is situated at the back of the device (with a 2MP secondary sensor) while an 8MP snapper is placed on front for selfies. The top and bottom portion of the
back cover features a faux-leather design and comes in three colors. There’s
also a set biometric security features in the device including a fingerprint
scanner, voice recognition and an eye scanner.
The phone will also sport NFC connectivity that will allow
users to make transactions using NFC technology. The ZTE Axon Lux will be on
