If you’re looking for a relatively affordable handset that delivers respectable specifications on a prepaid carrier, Boost Mobile’s recently-announced ZTE Warp Sync might be up your alley.

The Warp Sync comes equipped with a 5-inch HD display that displays Android 4.4.2 KitKat in all its glory. Powering the handset is a 1.2GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 processor and 2GB of RAM. The 8GB of internal storage might not give you enough room to store pictures and videos taken with the handset’s 8-megapixel rear-facing and 1.6-megapixel front-facing cameras, but the Warp Sync has a MicroSD slot that will take up to 64GB cards.

The Warp Sync comes equipped with Sprint’s HD Voice technology, which allows for clearer calls over the network when calling another HD Voice-equipped handset. Finally, the handset also support Sprint’s Spark technology, which is the carrier’s beefed-up LTE network.

The ZTE Warp Sync joins several ZTE handsets on Boost Mobile, including the Boost Max and the Boost Warp 4G. It is currently available for $180.

ZTE’s powerful Axon 10 Pro arrives on U.S. shores with an affordable price

ZTE Axon 10 Pro rear

ZTE is finally bringing a flagship phone -- the Axon 10 Pro -- to the United States, its first since the dual-screen Axon M smartphone it launched in 2017.

Why the absence? In 2017, the company was forced to pay heavy fines for illegally shipping American goods to Iran, violating U.S. sanctions. It was forced to dismiss several senior executives and discipline others but lied to regulators about reprimanding employees, which is when the U.S. government banned American companies from selling to ZTE. The Chinese company worked out a deal and the ban was lifted, but it had to pay more in fines, replace its entire senior executive team, and had to agree to a compliance monitor selected by the U.S. Department of Commerce. It's still operating under a 10-year suspended ban, which means the U.S. can activate the ban again if violations are found.
