Both stylish and affordable options, the ZTE C78 and C79 are full-featured handsets that operate on AWS and PCS frequency bands and provide over 60MB of user memory for users who want to download games, ringtones and applications. The suite of features also includes Bluetooth capabilities and picture messaging. The ZTE C78 features a sleek design with a 2-inch backlit color display in a black and silver candy bar casing.
