       The Zopo ZP999 standard version continues the classic design sported by the Zopo ZP998 with many similarities from the size to the way the buttons are set. Even their batteries are the same size, so, they’re interchangeable. However, the SIM slots were changed.  Zopo ZP998 has one big SIM slot and one small one, and has support for China Unicom 3G networks. The Zopo ZP999 standard version, on the other hand, has two micro card slots (one micro-SIM slot and one micro-SD slot) and has support for China Mobile 4G networks. The two slots overlap each other. Another difference is that the Zopo ZP999 standard version is not NFC-supported. As a result, there are no NFC-sensing sections all over the phone. This is a phone aimed at the mass market, and so, it’s no surprise that its specifications doesn’t have much improvements from Zopo ZP998.

It looks like ZOPO is challenging Meizu as it recently posted photos comparing the MX4 with its upcoming high-end version of the  Zopo MiniHei 3 in terms of memory, screen, and all kinds of hardware.

It includes a 5.5-inch OGS screen with FHD resolution, a built-in 5mp front-facing camera, and 3GB RAM (as compared to the MX4’s 1GB 2GB RAM). It also scored more than 50000 at the Antutu benchmark test.
