The ZTE F870 is a mobile phone that was announced and released in 2009. However, it is now considered a discontinued product, which means the manufacturer is no longer producing it. It may still be available from some third-party sellers, but support and availability of replacement parts may be limited. As a discontinued product, it is not being updated, and the features may be outdated compared to the current technology and new smartphones available today.
Design and Display
The ZTE F870 phone is designed to be compact and lightweight, with dimensions of 108 x 55.5 x 12.6 mm and a weight of 100 grams. It uses a Mini-SIM card and features a TFT resistive touchscreen display with 65K colors. The display measures 3.2 inches and has a resolution of 240 x 400 pixels. The phone is equipped with a resistive touchscreen, which requires pressure to register touch input and may not be as responsive as a capacitive touchscreen. Additionally, the resolution of 240×400 is relatively low compared to modern smartphones, which may not provide the sharpest or most detailed images. However, it is sufficient for basic phone functions such as calling, texting, and internet browsing.
Camera
The ZTE F870 phone features a main camera with a resolution of 5 megapixels. This camera has no specific features; it is a basic camera you can use to take pictures. The phone can record videos and has a front-facing camera, which can be used to take selfies.
Memory
The ZTE F870 phone has a microSDHC card slot, a dedicated slot that allows users to expand the phone’s storage capacity by using a MicroSDHC memory card. However, the phone doesn’t have any internal memory, which means that its storage capacity is limited to the microSDHC card and may not be sufficient for storing large amounts of data. The phone does have the capability to store phonebook contacts and call records. This means that users can save their contacts and call history on the phone, making it convenient to access and manage them.
Sound and Features
The ZTE F870 phone has a built-in loudspeaker, allowing users to hear audio from the phone without needing external speakers or headphones. However, it does not have a 3.5mm headphone jack, so users may need to use a Bluetooth headset or adapter to listen to audio from the phone. The phone does not have wireless LAN (WLAN) capabilities, meaning it cannot connect to a wireless network. It does have Bluetooth version 2.1 with A2DP, which allows users to connect to other devices wirelessly. However, it does not have GPS capabilities, so it cannot be used for navigation or location-based services. The phone has a stereo FM radio with RDS (Radio Data System) support, which allows users to listen to radio stations without needing an internet connection and provides additional information like song titles and artist names. The phone also has a USB 2.0 port, which can be used to transfer data and charge the phone. The phone also has an accelerometer sensor that detects the phone’s movement and orientation.
Battery
The ZTE F870 phone comes with a removable Li-Ion 1250 mAh battery. The battery can be easily taken out and replaced if needed. The phone is available in black, Red, and Brown.
