Comparisons Featuring ZTE Avid 4G
Short Review
- The ZTE Avid 4G features a compact design with dimensions of 124 x 65.5 x 11.9 mm and a weight of 148.8g, making it portable and easy to handle.
- Its 4.0-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 233 ppi, suitable for basic tasks but lacking HDR support.
- Performance is driven by a dual-core 1.2 GHz CPU paired with 4GB of RAM, providing adequate speed for everyday applications.
- The rear camera is a 5 MP unit with autofocus, capable of capturing decent photos, though it lacks optical image stabilization and a front-facing camera.
- The battery capacity stands at 1730 mAh, which may require frequent charging due to its limited capacity.
- Running on Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich), the software experience is basic and may not support newer applications.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth, but it lacks 5G and NFC capabilities.
- The device has a microUSB 2.0 port for charging and data transfer, with no wireless charging options available.
