Finally we may know the CPU type

I hope this will finally crush all doubt of what the processor is.

Will he be patient enough to charge it up and look in About Phone or will he just smash it open to find out?

LMAO. He can easily find out without smashing it open

Oooh, Jealous.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU !!
At least the questions about the Skate will get answered now:)
Although there will still be that possible chance the Monte Carlo is different.

I look forward to hearing what Paul makes of it.

It looks pretty awesome next to the other phone in the pic.


Any chance of an unboxing video and review this week?

Looks like we will get our answer soon about the Skates supposed armv7.

Will be interesting to see if he thinks its worth the £200 price tag.

I'm already going to predict the camera and recording will be sub par.

Just to add to intrigue, the pre production Skate I have is clocked at…. 600MHz! :-/ /proc/cpuinfo reports same as the Blade. (post: http://twitter.com/#...956848858185728)

That is because they have different ratios. iPhone is 2:3 while the blade is 6:10 "widescreen".

Hang on is this a review device? Why would you send an under clocked version? ZTE you sure know how to treat your customers.
