ZTE Axon 7 Mini Review: Solid Phone with a Deal-Breaking Flaw

3.0

The Axon 7 Mini doesn't make too many trade-offs from ZTE's flagship-worthy Axon 7. But this $299 phone's battery life holds it back.

ZTE Axon 7 Mini Review

3.5

The unlocked ZTE Axon 7 Mini's lower price comes at the cost of significantly pared down hardware. It's a decent midrange Android phone, but the Axon 7 is a better deal.
