The ZTE Axon 7 mini is now available in Malaysia. Announced during IFA 2016, this is the compact version of its Axon 7 flagship smartphone.
The Axon 7 mini retains the same appearance as its bigger brother with a metal unibody design. The front gets a 5.2″ Full HD AMOLED display that comes with a smooth 2.5D Corning Gorilla Glass 4.

If you need more storage, you can pop a microSD card (up to 128GB) on its hybrid dual-SIM tray.

For imaging, it gets a 16MP Main camera with PDAF while the front sports an 8MP shooter. There’s also a fingerprint sensor for easy unlocking right at the back of the device.
The Axon 7 mini comes with a 2,705mAh battery which supports Quick Charge 2.0 via USB Type-C. It is rated to replenish 50% charge in just 30 minutes. Out of the box, it runs on Android 6.0 Marshmallow.
Similar to its bigger flagship, the ZTE Axon 7 mini comes with a privilege protection plan.
