While smartphone manufacturers churn out a steady stream of new devices each year, flagship processors are becoming less rare in the Android market. OEMs usually prefer to a couple of flagship devices and their rest of the phone lineup is entry-level or midrange devices. While Snapdragon 870 isn’t the newest chip, it should outperform many Android devices in today’s market. ZTE has just dropped the price of ZTE Axon A41 to an incredible $137 (999 CNY)!

ZTE A41 was initially launched in 2022 and has now hit its lowest price since release. It features Snapdragon 870 chipset, supports 66W charging, and boasts a 5000 mAh battery. For just $137, these specs are quite impressive.

The phone was originally priced at $605 in 2022, the current price is a quarter of its launch price. However, this deal is only available in China. While some ZTE phones are sold globally, the ZTE Axon 41 is not among them unfortunately.

It’s remarkable to see such significant price cuts on older devices from ZTE. Chinese smartphone manufacturers have made significant improvements in many countries with their competitive pricing. A price cut like this on the global market would be fantastic. While the ZTE Axon A41 might not run the latest Android, it would still be an excellent choice for users with basic needs.
