Boost Mobile has cultivated a reputation for offering slick, good-looking smartphones–which is why I’m pleasantly surprised to see the ZTE Warp enter Boost’s no-contract lineup.
ZTE isn’t well-known in the U.S., and definitely not for higher-end devices, but the specs are promising so far. The Android 2.3 Gingerbread ZTE Warp offers up a 4.3-inch display, a 1GHz processor, and a 5-megapixel camera with LED flash.
The screen won’t be the most brilliant with its 480×800-pixel resolution, but it should serve, and in theory the 5-megapixel camera could be pretty good–it all depends on the light sensor and the camera software. It’ll all become clearer in a few weeks when we can get our hands on the phone.
The ZTE Warp goes public on November 2 for $249.99 without a contract. That’s $20 more than Boost’s Samsung Transform Ultra, which also runs Gingerbread, and has a 3-megapixel camera, a front-facing VGA camera, and a slide-out QWERTY keyboard.
