Reviews for the ZTE Blade Velocity

60% ZTE Blade Velocity review
Source: V3.co.uk English Archive.org version
While there's not much to get excited about here, the Blade Velocity actually offers more than you might expect for its bargain-basement price. It feels like an own-brand smartphone - you don't get the pretty design or fun features of the pricier models, but you don't pay for the brand name either.

Qualcomm Adreno 405: Integrated graphics card for ARM based SoCs. Depending on the used SoC the clock rate is around 500 MHz and features 48 unified shaders.

Only some 3D games with very low demands are playable with these cards.

617 MSM8952: Mid-range ARM SoC with 8 CPU cores (Cortex-A53, 64-bit capable) and an Adreno 405 GPU. Manufactured in a 28 nm LP process.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.


5.20":

This display is quite big for a smartphone but frequently used for smartphones.

Large display-sizes allow higher resolutions. So, details like letters are bigger. On the other hand, the power consumption is lower with small screen diagonals and the devices are smaller, more lightweight and cheaper.

0.145 kg:

Only few smartphones are more lightweight than this.


ZTE:

ZTE is short for Zhong Xing Telecommunication Equipment Company Limited, which was founded in China in 1985. The product range includes, for example, USB sticks, routers, smartphones and tablets.

The ratings of the relatively many reviews have a wide range from below-average to very good (as of 2016).


60%: Such a bad rating is rare. There exist hardly any notebooks, which are rated worse.
