This ZTE is powered by a MediaTek MT6589 chip with a 1,6 GHz Quad-Core processor. This chipset has a quad-core processor with 2048 MB RAM. With a thickness of 6.9 millimeters, the device is very thin, there are not many devices thinner than this. This phone weighs 160 grams.
The Grand S V988 has a 13 megapixel camera, it means that the camera is capable of capturing detailed images without the added cost and complexity of a higher megapixel count. This can be useful if you want to take high-resolution photos that you can zoom in on or crop without losing too much detail, but you don't need the very highest level of image quality. In general, having this amount of megapixels can provide a good balance of image quality and affordability. You can also use the 2 megapixel selfie camera for video calling, for example. Please note that this device does not have expandable memory and that you regularly transfer the photos to the computer or the cloud to have enough space.

Dual-sim
A dual-SIM phone is a type of mobile device that has the ability to use two separate SIM cards. This allows the phone to be connected to two different mobile networks at the same time, which can be useful for a variety of reasons.

Dual-SIM phones can also be useful for people who travel frequently and need to use local SIM cards in different countries. Some dual-SIM phones have a physical slot for the second SIM card, while others use a virtual or eSIM.
