One particular drawback that the ZTE Blade S6 is its 720p resolution, but it’s actually more of an advantage when viewed from a different perspective. You see, skipping Full HD or quad-HD resolution is good for the battery life, and it should also keep everything on screen smooth because 720p is a lot less demanding to the processor.
