The ZTE Tania recently launched in the UK. It’s ZTE’s first Windows Phone and it features a 4.3 inch screen with the same 800 x 480 pixel resolution that all Windows Phones are required to have, 1 GHz processor from Qualcomm, 5 megapixel camera, no front facing camera, and that’s about it. There’s nothing really…
Lv Qianhao, Head of ZTE’s Handset Strategy, recently gave an interview to Retuers where he revealed some of the company’s ambitions for this year and beyond. First up is smartphones. The company predicted that they would ship 12 million of them in 2011, but they apparently “far exceeded” that goal. That’s a bit vague to…
Remember the T-Mobile Vivacity, the carrier-branded mid-level Android smartphone we talked about in November 2011? It was launched with the 99.99 GPB price tag and now the Deutsche Telekom-owned operator decided to slash its price by 10%. In other words, interested users can grab the ZTE-made Vivacity for just 89.99 on pay-as-you-go tariffs. No contract…
If you thought just seeing the upcoming Asus-made, Tegra 3-packing, 7 tablet from afar was a nice thing to see, you may be happy with what you see right here. While it likely won’t be coming to the US anytime soon, if at all, after cruising around the NVIDIA booth we saw a tablet from ZTE. Not…
ZTE is still far from a household name in the U.S. While they do offer some consumer products — like the brand new 4G hotspot ZTE Jetpack from Verizon Wireless — they’re still far other handset makers. That said, they did show some decent products at the CES, though I can’t say we were that…

Developed in partnership with the Chinese handset maker ZTE, it’s basically a rebranded version of the ZTE Blade, which we also know as Orange San Francisco. Yep it’s the original San Francisco, not the new (better) San Francisco II. To…
Orange’s San Francisco II will soon be available in white. Such a device already “earned” a place at the carrier’s “Coming Soon” page though we still don’t know when exactly it will be released. Aside from a different color, there won’t be any other changes included. In that sense, expect the same 3.5-inch WVGA touchscreen,…
Chinese handset vendor ZTE has a reputation for making low cost devices. Not that there’s anything wrong with that. In fact, we commend them for enabling millions of people experience the internet for the first time thanks to their vast portfolio budget Android smartphones. Lixin Cheng, President of ZTE North America, hopes to change the…
Virgin Mobile, the American prepaid operator that offers unlimited everything plans for just $55 per month, will soon introduce a pair of Android smartphones to the market according to PocketNow. They say that the two devices in question are manufactured by Chinese handset vendor ZTE and will be known as the Chaser and the Venture.…
Chinese handset vendor ZTE doesn’t get a lot of respect from the mobile geek community because they make devices that are usually targeted towards the low end. Case in point: the ZTE Blade (V880) (pictured above), which has has been out for over a year now, shipped with a 600 MHz Qualcomm CPU, 512 MB…
