Short Review
- The ZTE Skate Acqua features a simple design with a 4.0-inch TFT display, offering a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels and a pixel density of approximately 233 ppi.
- Its build is basic, available in black and white, but lacks water resistance and premium materials.
- Performance is powered by a Qualcomm MSM7227A Snapdragon S1 chipset, with a 1.0 GHz Cortex-A5 CPU and Adreno 200 GPU, complemented by 4GB of storage and 512MB of RAM.
- The camera system includes a 5 MP rear camera capable of 720p video recording, but it lacks optical image stabilization and a front-facing camera.
- Battery life is supported by a 1600 mAh capacity, but it does not offer fast charging or wireless charging options.
- The device runs on Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich), providing a dated software experience without modern features.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 2.1, and microUSB 2.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
