ZTE announced the Axon 7s with a chip upgrade and a dual-camera setup – too bad, you can't have it!
Chinese smartphone maker ZTE announced an upgraded version of the Axon 7 model that it sells in the USA and other markets outside its homeland. The 7s runs the Snapdragon 821 processor in place of the SD 820, and dons a dual-camera setup on its back. Everything else pretty much stays the same, which isn't bad at all - the Axon 7 is a powerful handset with a 5.5-inch QHD display, 4GB of RAM, ample storage space, and it looks quite nice.
It's a bit unfortunate, because the Axon 7 offered a compelling price-to-features ratio, and the Axon line in general is well-positioned as a choice for an "affordable flagship" – together with the Honor 8 and OnePlus phones. But ZTE is free to make such business decisions of its own, that we cannot really judge. Onward to the Axon 8, then!
