It is part of the mid-range, but it is an interesting proposal, as well as compact, for all those who want to opt for an economical, but well-equipped mobile. We are talking about the ZTE Blade V8, a device that was presented at the beginning of the year and will soon be available to the general public.
Its older brother, the ZTE Blade V8 Pro, was also unveiled a few weeks ago, but with a generously sized screen. The regular ZTE Blade V8 was presented with a slightly more compact design. Today we want to review its most relevant characteristics. Do you dare to take a look at them?
1. Elegant design in different shades
The ZTE Blade V8 has a very elegant design. The ZTE company has decided to integrate a completely metallic design into this smartphone, as well as slightly rounded sides. This makes the phone very comfortable to hold and fits very well in the hand. In addition, the different elements have been very successfully located: the camera sensors are positioned in the horizontal section. Of course, the fingerprint reader has been moved from the back to the front, a detail that we do not know if all users will like it. Be that as it may, something that can seduce the public is that the device will be available in up to four different colors: rose gold, silver, dark gray and champagne gold.
2. Dual 13 megapixel camera
Obviously, one of the sections in which this smartphone stands out the most is right in the camera. It is a trend that many manufacturers are following and it seems that ZTE would also have signed up for it. We are talking about the double system of the main camera. On this occasion, the ZTE Blade V8 would sport a primary 13 megapixel sensor and a secondary 2 megapixel sensor: the former would work with autofocus, while the latter could offer blur, a feature that many users will like to play with.
3. FullHD screen
The screen is, in all smartphones, a fundamental element. ZTE Blade of the V8 would be a little more compact, but still would reach 5.2 inches and would be covered with a 2.5D curved glass. This same panel would offer us a FullHD resolution of 1,920 x 1,080 pixels and a density of 424 dots per inch. Thus, users will have the opportunity to enjoy a good level of detail, both when viewing photos, movies or even video games with quality graphics.
4. Android 7.0 as standard
Android 7.0 Nougat is still in a very small portion of teams. In fact, according to the latest reports, mobiles that work through the new Google icons barely reach 2%. On this occasion, the new owners of the ZTE Blade V8 will be in luck, because the device will have Android 7.0 installed as standard. This naturally includes the entire ecosystem of Google applications, among which we can find Google Maps, Gmail, YouTube, Hangouts, Drive, Google Search, and so on.
5. Good internal machinery
The ZTE Blade V8 is a mid-range computer, but the truth is that it has a good processor. Although we would not recommend it to all those users looking for a more professional team, its internal machinery does not disappoint. It works through an eight-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 435 processor, capable of combining its performance with 3 GB of RAM. This means that the device will be able to multitask without problems and have different tasks running in the background. In addition, the equipment has a 32 GB memory that, if necessary, we can expand with microSD cards of up to 128 GB.
6. Battery to match
We have already indicated that the ZTE Blade V8 is a mid-range phone. Do not expect great features, but the truth is that the team is not far behind in almost anything. The battery in the device has a capacity of 2,730 milliamps, so it should guarantee a performance of at least a day at a good pace.
