Comparisons Featuring ZTE Grand X View 2
Short Review
- The ZTE Grand X View 2 features a robust design with dimensions of 215 x 125 x 9.4 mm and a weight of 330g, making it relatively portable for an 8-inch tablet.
- Its IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 800 x 1280 pixels, providing decent clarity at approximately 189 ppi, though it lacks HDR support.
- Performance is driven by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 210 chipset, with a quad-core CPU clocked at 1.3 GHz and 8GB of RAM, which allows for basic multitasking.
- The camera system includes a 5 MP rear camera capable of recording 720p video at 30fps, while the 2 MP front camera is suitable for simple selfies.
- The device is powered by a 4620 mAh battery, which supports extended usage but lacks fast or wireless charging options.
- Running on Android 7.1.1 Nougat, the software experience is straightforward, though it may feel dated compared to newer versions.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.1, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The absence of stereo speakers is notable, but it does include a headphone jack for audio output.
