Other than that we find a rear 13MP camera with dual-tone LED flash and PDAF autofocus, while on the front there’s a 8MP shooter also accompanied by an LED flash.
The handset will run Android 6.0 Marshmallow out of the box, which is a bit disappointing at this point in time, but will suffice nonetheless.
ZTE Blade A2 Plus will be priced 11,999 INR ($178) and comes in two color variants: Gold and Silver. It’ll be available exclusively at Flipkart starting February 6th.
With the big 5000mAh battery, 4GB of RAM and an affordable price, the Blade A2 Plus is a very interesting new entry in the Indian market, still, it’ll go against devices like the Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 (Snapdragon) also recently launched in India, which is not an easy task.
