Short Review

  • The ZTE Blade G2 features a compact design with dimensions of 133 x 66 x 9.9 mm and a weight of 145 grams, making it easy to handle.
  • It sports a 4.5-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 480 x 854 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 218 ppi.
  • Performance is powered by a Mediatek MT6589 chipset, a quad-core 1.2 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU, and 4GB of RAM, providing adequate multitasking capabilities for basic tasks.
  • The rear camera is a 5 MP unit with autofocus, capable of capturing decent photos, while the front lacks a selfie camera.
  • The battery capacity stands at 2000 mAh, which supports standard usage without fast charging or wireless options.
  • Running on Android 4.2.1 (Jelly Bean), the software experience is relatively dated but functional.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, and microUSB 2.0, though it lacks 5G and NFC support.
  • The device does not feature stereo speakers but includes a headphone jack for audio output.
  • Overall, the ZTE Blade G2 is a basic smartphone suitable for essential functions.
  • Its design and build quality are adequate for everyday use, but it may not meet the demands of more advanced users.
