ZTE Imperial Review
(N9101) Score: 51.2 / 100
ZTE Imperial is a decent quality cellphone, coming with a 5 mega-pixels back-facing camera, a medium sized 4 inches multi touch capacitive screen and a good performance Dual-Core CPU running at 1200 MHz. But let's get into much more details.
ZTE decided to build this cellphone using a fast 1200 MHz Dual-Core CPU, included in a Qualcomm MSM8930 system chip and 1 GB of RAM memory. Graphic calculations often consume lots of processing power, so this cellphone counts with an additional 450 megahertz Adreno 305 GPU to help handle those graphic tasks. This phone counts with a moderate 4 GB internal memory, which is adequate for most users considering it also has a slot for external memory cards .
The ZTE Imperial's thickness , 0.45", is a little far from current standards, but it still feels quite fine in the user's hand. It appears that ZTE decided not to care much about the weight in this 5.43 oz cellphone.
ZTE equipped the ZTE Imperial with a very good 4-inches display, and a resolution of 800 x 480 , which makes everything look very nice. Its display uses IPS LCD capacitive technology, and can detect multiple fingers at the same time.
This device features wifi capability (and it can provide it to other devices acting as a wireless modem) and LTE 4G fast connectivity. This phone doesn't have a sim card, because it is not a GSM enabled phone and it can connect to CDMA carriers.
This cellphone has only a 5 megapixels back-facing camera. To complete the camera, it also features a couple of interesting characteristics: flash, auto-focus and smile detection shooting.
The ZTE Imperial packs a huge 2500 mAh battery providing this device a marvelous battery life.
This cellphone also features a couple useful features as Bluetooth (4.0) and GPS Localization, and plenty of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.
The ZTE Imperial is really expensive considering it is offerred for 145 dollars, and some similar phones are being sold for much less than that.
