ZTE MR1: a smartphone without a camera

Reviewing information from TENAA I came across another interesting phone. Oppo is trying to hide the camera in the housing, but ZTE goes a step further - and intends to sell the smartphone at all deprived of the camera. Does it make sense?

At first glance - no. But after a moment's thought, there comes an unbearable thought, and if there are customers who do not use cameraphones and do not want to pay for it? It is possible that there is also a group of customers who - for various reasons, for example occupational ones - cannot use the phone that could take pictures...? Anyway - the niche market certainly exists, and the model ZTE MR1 is for these buyers. This is a classic smartphone based on Android, with a rather simple specification and an equally simple styling. A typical model from the lowest shelf. ZTE MR1 received a dual-core processor clocked at 1.2 GHz, a gigabyte of RAM and a 4.7-inch display with a resolution of 540x960 pixels. It also has 4 GB of memory, a microSD card slot and the ability to work in GSM and TD-SCDMA. This model is designed, of course, exclusively for the Chinese market - so we can assume that it will find its place there. I'm not sure if it would find buyers in Europe... even if we take into account that it will be quite cheap - within the limits of $ 100. What do you think - can anyone even want the phone without a camera?

I’ve spent a solid three weeks with it, so now I can tell you a bit more about this smartphone and share my honest impressions. read more
