ZTE has just launched a new budget smartphone in India and it happens to be the cheapest 4G smartphone in the country. Named as 'ZTE Blade Qlux 4G', it will be the Chinese OEM's ticket to the budget smartphone market in India. With Reliance Jio all set for its 4G network launch and Airtel having rolled out its 4G network already, people are slowly making the transition towards 4G phones. ZTE Blad Qlux 4G has been launched with the motive of cashing big on that notion.
The smartphone has been priced at Rs 4,999. It will be available exclusively on Amazon in Black color, starting from Tuesday. It features a 4.5-inch IPS display. Powering it is a 1.3GHz quad-core processor coupled with 1GB of RAM. It supports both Indian 4G LTE bands (1800MHz and 2300MHz). ZTE has further tied up with Airtel to give double data for the users of the smartphone. Let us take a quick look at its specifications:
