ZTE has unveiled a mid-range device price at $100 which it says creates a new record for its highly cheap price. The device adopts the moniker ZTE Zmax Pro and takes over from last year’s Zmax 2 and its 2014 predecessor Zmax. ZTE says the device will be aimed at rival devices Samsung Galaxy J7 and LG Stylo 2, which both sport identical specs with the Zmax Pro but cost higher.

On the specs, the Zmax Pro sports a 6-inch 1080p touchscreen display and is powered by an Octa-core Snapdragon 617 processor with Adreno 405 GPU. The device packs 2GB of RAM and 32GB of built-in storage which is expandable. Also, the ZTE Zmax Pro features a USB Type-C port and a fingerprint scanner at the back.

In addition, ZTE ZMax Pro boots Android 6.0 Marshmallow operating system. The smartphone also features a 3.5mm headphone jack which is gradually disappearing from phones  and crams a 3,400mAh battery under its hood.

Talking about the camera, the Zmax Pro sports an impressive 13MP rear facing camera with phase detection auto focus and LED flash as well as a 5MP camera up front for selfie snapshots.
