Paris, - ZTE Corporation ("ZTE") (H shares securities code: 0763.HK / A shares securities code: 000063.SZ), a publicly-listed global provider of telecommunications equipment and network solutions,has announced the availability of its new flagship smartphone, the ZTE Skate, and the ZTE Racer II in France.
A review of the ZTE Race Android handset has been posted over at Tracy and Matt. 'Let's start at the front of the ZTE Racer then. At the top there's a large speaker grille behind which, on the right, is a small indicator LED that tells you the charging status as well as providing a visual alert. The resistive touchscreen is 2.8" diagonal and is 240x320 pixels, rather low res really. Below the screen are three touch-sensitive buttons for Home, Menu and Back. Under these are two physical buttons for answer and hang-up functions. On the top of the handset you'll find a 3.5mm headphone socket a recessed power button and a a whole which looks like it would take a phone charm or lanyard but does appear to be the loudspeaker.'
A review of the ZTE Racer Android handset has been posted over at Tech Radar. 'The ZTE Racer is a light handset and has a slight look of a budget phone about it. The plastic casing and lightweight feel don't make it feel any more premium, and any mobile with a resistive screen is always cause for concern. However, while ZTE is keen for the Racer to be seen as a package and not based on specs, it holds its own in that department too: a 3.5mm headphone jack and 3.2MP camera are both welcome additions at this price point.'
