ZTE V8000 visits FCC, heading to Cricket
Back in May, we were able to check out a phone called the ZTE Nova 4.0 V8000 around the block. The device, seemingly headed for Cricket Wireless, has just visited the FCC as the ZTE V8000. The device visiting the Feds carried the same cellular bands as those used by Cricket. FCC photos revealed an 8MP camera on back with flash and a front-facing camera for self-portraits and video chats. While the FCC pointed out the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity on the device, further photos brought to light a microUSB port and a 3.5mm earphone jack. SRS Audio is also aboard as is Cricket's music library Muve Music.
Thanks to our time in May with the ZTE Nova 4.0 V8000, we can fill in some of the gaps. For example, the phone we played around with had a 4 inch WVGA LCD display and was powered by a single-core 1.4GHz Qualcomm MSM8655 processor with 1GB of RAM and 4GB of ROM on board. A 1900mAh battery keept the wheels spinning on the handset. Our run through with the phone showed Android 4.0 to be installed
At the time, we told you that the ZTE Nova 4.0 V8000 would be launched via Cricket in the future. Now, more than 4 months later and following this FCC visit, we'd say that the future is now and to expect this model to be released shortly.
