Other specs include an 8 MP rear camera, a 2 MP front shooter, 16 GB of internal storage and expandable memory via microSD. ZTE is also quick to mention the phone’s superior audio, which is powered by Dolby Audio technology.

ZTE Avid Plus

ZTE is avid to bring its products to as many Americans as possible, but they won’t do that by targeting only one carrier. This is why the ZTE Avid Plus is coming to both T-Mobile and MetroPCS.

While ZTE didn’t reveal the price point on this one, its specs tell us it should be priced towards the lower side of the spectrum. The smartphone packs a Qualcomm Snapdragon 210 processor, a 5-inch 854x480p display, 1 GB of RAM, 8 GB of internal storage, a 5 MP rear camera, a 2 MP front camera and a 2300 mAh battery.
