ZTE
is not necessarily your Android manufacturer of choice, but they offer
affordable devices. Those not willing to pocket out many Benjamins for a
smartphone now have another option – the ZTE Score M from MetroPCS.
It
is the same low-end ZTE Score that Cricket released last year. The
device comes with 600 MHz processor, a 3.5-inch display, Android 2.3 and
a 3.2 MP camera.
The device didn’t manage to get any great
reactions last year, and it definitely won’t in today’s market. But the
$50 price point (after mail-in rebate) might be enough to convince new
smartphone adopters and pocket-conscious individuals. It could also be a
good device to give to your children.
“There is an
increasing number of consumers that see how the functionality of a
smartphone will enhance their lives, but still may not be prepared to
commit fully to a costly device. Working with MetroPCS to offer these
customers the ZTE Score M will allow them to have the smartphone
experience at an incredible value.” – Lixin Cheng, ZTE USA CEO
Considering
the options, even within MetroPCS, we don’t see many of these flying
off the shelves. But another option is always good. Would any of you
consider a device like this? |
