ZTE is a very well known brand and sells internationally in retail shops. Generally they put out a very good phone.
The latest bargain bin offering is the U807. The phone retails for 399 yuan and comes with a nice little bonus for a cheap phone – NFC.
The $75 ZTE U807N will feature MT6517 SoC. 4.0″ LCD @ 800*480. 512GB RAM, 4GB ROM. Battery a lowly 1600mA, but in such a small phone, this is understandable. The camera will be 3mp.
As with the MT6572 Jiayu F1, the ZTE U807N can be considered only as a backup phone, or as a gift for the kids. Unfortunately it only has TD-SCDMA + GSM, which means it will be incompatible with any 3G outside of China.
If comparing the Jiayu F1 to the ZTE U807N, we’d have to say the Jiayu F1 is easily the better choice with it’s huge battery, but if you’ve got a bit more dough to spare, don’t subject yourself to the frustrations that 512MB brings.
