Chinese telecommunication equipment major, ZTE is reportedly planning to launch the company's flagship smartphone Nubia Z7 Max in India in a few months time.
The company plans to sell its marquee phone online and is already in talks with some Indian e-commerce websites. If all things fall in place, ZTE Nubia Z7 Max might hit stores around September/October, just ahead of the festive season in India, reported PTI.
In 2014, exclusive tie-up between e-retailers and smartphone vendors has become a profit churning business model in India. For instance, Motorola reportedly sold 1 million Moto series (E, G and X) smartphones in India via Flipkart in just five months, pocketing a cool ₹700 crores revenue, The Economic Times reported.
ZTE's Chinese counter-part, Xiaomi too has joined hands with Flipkart to sell the company's flagship Mi3 online in India.
ZTE Nubia Z7 Max made its global debut early this month in China. It flaunts a mammoth 5.5-inch full HD (1920x1080p) display and ships with Android v4.4 KitKat (with Nubia v2.0 UI) backed by Qualcomm's 2.5GHz Snapdragon 801 series quad-core processor, Adreno 330 GPU, 2GB RAM, 32GB inbuilt-storage (expandable up to 64GB).
Other stipulated specifications include 13.0-megapixel camera (with auto-focus, LED flash, HDR), a 5.0-megapixel snapper on the front (with full HD video recording ability), a 3100 mAh battery and on connectivity front, it supports 3G (& 4G-LTE in select markets) network, Bluetooth v4.0 (with A2DP) and Wi-Fi (802.11 b/g/n/ac).
According to PTI sources, ZTE is expected to retail Nubia Z7 Max with competitive price for around ₹24,000- ₹26,000.
