ZTE is the fourth-largest mobile phone manufacturer in the world. The brand attracted significant attention from the mobile industry earlier this year when previewed at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. The ZTE Open smart phone has a 3.5-inch screen built around a single-core 1GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, which delivers a fraction of the processing power found in the quad-core processors used in most modern smartphones. There’s also 256MB of RAM, 512MB of expandable storage and a 3.2-megapixel camera on the back. The ZTE Open is powered by Firefox OS, which frees developers, operators and consumers from the constraints of existing closed ecosystems by using the Web as the platform for all functionality and applications. It is available in bright orange colour and is being retailed exclusively on eBay.

Alok Agarwal, Director – Marketing, eBay India, “We are delighted to provide Indian consumers access to the ZTE Open, a popular smartphone which is a great option for first time smart phone users.
