Comparisons Featuring ZTE Avail
Short Review
- The ZTE Avail features a compact design with dimensions of 116 x 62 x 13 mm and a weight of 127 grams, making it portable and easy to handle.
- Its 3.5-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 320 x 480 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 165 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks but lacks vibrancy.
- Performance is supported by 512MB of RAM and 512MB of internal storage, which may limit multitasking and app usage.
- The rear camera is 5 MP with autofocus, capable of capturing decent photos, but it lacks optical image stabilization and a front-facing camera.
- The 1800 mAh battery provides basic power, but there is no fast charging or wireless charging support.
- Running on Android 2.3 (Gingerbread), the software experience is dated and may not support many modern applications.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g and Bluetooth 2.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The phone has a microUSB 2.0 port for charging and data transfer, and it includes a headphone jack.
- Overall, the ZTE Avail is a basic device suitable for minimal use, lacking many features found in contemporary smartphones.
- Its build quality and specifications reflect its 2011 release, making it less competitive in today’s market.
