ZTE Blade V8 Mini - Full Phone Specifications

ZTE introduced two midrange smartphones at the MWC - the Blade V8 Lite with focus on the design, and the Blade V8 Mini with a dual-camera setup for advanced photography experience.

The Blade V8 Lite is made of metal and is built around a 5" IPS screen of 720p resolution. The phone is powered by the MT6750 chipset, which may be aging and borderline mediocre, but is becoming quite a popular choice among the manufacturers.

The ZTE Blade V8 Mini is keeping the nice design, but brings a Snapdragon 430 chipset, a bigger battery, and a dual main camera with a secondary 2MP sensor for depth information. ZTE promises a variable aperture up to f/8.0 and you should be able to snap some nice photos with bokeh backgrounds.
