ZTE has many attractive phones, but most of the customers are aware of only a few models coming our way from the Nubia line. On the contrary, the original ZTE smartphones are warmly welcomed in the US market. So the new products announced today at MWC 2018 should be met with applauds as well. Those new models are the ZTE Blade V9 and ZTE Blade V9 Vita.
