ZTE decided to treat Chinese consumers to another smartphone from the budget Changxing series. The ZTE Changxing 60 smartphone looks as if it was created a few years ago, and its specifications are not much better.

I must admit that I haven't seen such a strange phone in a long time. ZTE Changxing 60 from the back it resembles models from the Huawei Mate 40 series or some Honors, but from the front it looks as if we were still in 2015 . The back is decorated with a juicy orange color and a huge circle housing cameras, while the front is marred by a huge, old-fashioned frame around the display. Source doesn't provide screen parameters, but I bet it works in HD+ resolution. Especially since there is a rather old Unisoc T7520 processor running underneath - as a consolation, it is equipped with a 5G modem. The processor works with LPDDR4X operating memory with a capacity of 4 or 6 GB and internal UFS 3.1 with a capacity of 128 GB.

The "wary" looking photo frame houses only one "real", 13-megapixel camera and an LED diode, next to it there may be a background blurr or dummy additional lenses. We also know that the smartphone has a minijack and an FM radio, and the operating system is Android 13 with the company's MyOS 13 overlay. This strange smartphone is relatively expensive considering its capabilities. It costs 899 or 1099 yuan - respectively - for the 4+128 and 6+128 GB versions, which after conversion gives 125-153 USD, 115-140 EUR. Against this background, the announced POCO C61 appears as a technological miracle...
