ZTE Blade A2 Plus 4: Front

The front is covered with 2.5D curved glass which gives it attractive looks, at the same times, reminds me several other phones, but it's quite close to Nubia N1. It has three capacitive buttons on the bottom bezel which can help you to navigate through the phone easily.

It hosts an 8-megapixel camera at the front and 5.5-inch Full HD (1080 x 1920 pixels resolution) LCD capacitive touch screen with a pixels density of 404PPI.

The smartphone has a metal body painted in gold. It feels rich while holding in hands and offers good grips as well. At the back, the Blade A2 Plus sports a 13-megapixel main camera sensor with Dual LED flash and it can capture 1080p high definition video.

ZTE Blade A2 Plus 4: Speaker Grill

At the bottom, it boasts a speaker grill and microUSB port. I am a bit surprised on still using MicroUSB when Type C market is booming and other competitors are selling their devices with the new USB connectivity.

Mi-Favor, by ZTE, runs on top ofAndroid 6.0 Marshmallow on this device, offering a customized experience.
