*double phone’s name in the title is there, because it is unclear whether the rumours pertain to one or the other. More info points out towards the 7s*

Judging by what information there is, ZTE is cooking up a solid mid-range phone. Personally, I do not really know why we need more of these, save perhaps for those of us who cannot stomach buying a Samsung. Most of Axon 8/7s looks quite nifty: 5.5′ OLED screen, Snapdragon 820/821 CPU, 4GB of RAM and from 64 to 256GB of storage, 3320mAh battery, 12mpx main and 8mpx secondary cameras. The only weird, in a bad sense of the word, detail is the phone’s OS, which is said to be a somewhat dated Android 6.0 Marshmallow – although there are rumours that it will in fact be 7.0 Nougat, which would make much more sense.

We’ll live and see.
