ZTE Grand S II LTE vs Oppo Find 7a
[komper pid=176,178,169 compareform=no]If you were in the market for a flagship Snapdragon 801 smartphone which would you choose? Are you an Oppo Find 7a fan? Or do you prefer the low cost of the ZTE Grand S II LTE?
This is no april fool, it’s real. At this price point, Xiaomi, Meizu and Huawei may even follow this price for their flagship model.
I love competition, the only winner are the consumers who pay lower prices for high specs phone.
So you are saying that ZTE is releasing a phone with the same specs as the Oneplus One for 274 dollars? And it just so happened its being released on April 1st? Sorry I don’t buy it. Can you cite any sources that indicate otherwise?
People in China can obtain a T code on the Tmall website of ZTE (Chinese marketplace where Chinese companies can start a retailsite) to buy this phone at April 10 between 10 and 11 o’clock with priority. Type ZTE tmall in Google search engine (I don’t think I can post any links in the comments without being checked that could take a while).
Remember, the price of 274 US dollar is only for people in China. You are going to pay a bit more in order to buy this phone of resellers.
Even Chinese techsites have a review of this phone already, this is not a joke. ZTE is going against Xiaomi, Meizu, Huawei and Oneplus with this phone. That’s why I love competition.
This phone even has a microSD card slot. If you want to read a Chinese review of this phone (with images of the 13 MP camera), type in the following Chinese words in Google search: 中兴天机 pchome
It should be the first search result, then go to page 8 for the images of the 13 MP camera.
WOW! That definitely proves me wrong. Thanks for the useful information! How do you know all this anyway? Are you Chinese?
This is for 100% sur a 1 april joke! Nice joke gizchina 😉
