Zopo Hero 2
Zopo look like they might have finally
woken up and are pricing their phones correctly with the announcement that
their budget Hero 2 will cost under US$ 70.
Zopo have quite a history of making
phones with low-end hardware only to over price them, but they might have
finally learned their lesson with the launch of the Zopo Hero 2.
At US$ 69.99 the phone is aimed at the
entry-level segment of the Chinese phone market, and will see fierce
competition from the likes of UMi, Bluboo, Blackview and Elephone, but this
time they have good specs to match.
In addition to a fingerprint scanner on
the rear of the phone, the handset also has a quad-core Mediatek chipset, 1 GB
RAM and 16 GB memory (plus space for 64 GB SD cards). The rear camera is an 8
mega-pixel model with dual LED flash for help in low-light conditions while the
front is a 2 mega-pixel selfie shooter.
Android 6.0 comes on the phone as
standard, and from what we can see from the press images it might be an
untouched stock installation. Zopo are teaming up with AliExpress, Gearbest and
Igogo to sell the Zopo Hero 2 which should be available to buy later this month
