ZTE Blade V7 Lite review

Beauty is sometimes only skin deep

Nice design ; Expandable storage ; Fingerprint scanner

Dull 720p display ; Dodgy camera ; Sluggish performance

The ZTE Blade V7 Lite's premium looks belie its budget origins. Interesting UI tweaks and the ability to expand the phone's storage can't fully atone for the dull 720p screen, poor camera and weak chipset, but this is still decent value for money.

ZTE Blade V7 Lite Smartphone Review

Darkness favors secret dealings! ZTE's Blade V7 Lite is an affordable mid-range smartphone with very appealing looks. Compared with its Blade V7 sister model, it is cheaper and aims to attract price-conscious buyers. However, the Lite version is...

IPS panel with good black level and contrast ; decent battery life ; fingerprint scanner ; aluminum casing

dark screen ; speaker ; performance ; slow SD card slot

In our tests, the Blade V7 Lite presented itself as a good mid-range handset from the lower price range in a quality metal casing and with a decent battery life. However, it also exhibited a few shortcomings. The IPS panel is solid and high-contrast,...
