Its spec list includes a 5.5-inch 2560×1440 AMOLED display, Snapdragon 820 processor, 4GB of RAM, 64GB of storage, a microSD slot that doubles as a second SIM slot, and a 3250mAh battery that supports Quick Charge 3.0. The Axon 7 also boasts a 20-megapixel rear camera that rests above a fingerprint reader, and an 8-megapixel front camera.

Also of note is that ZTE touts the Axon 7 will support Daydream, Google’s virtual reality platform. ZTE says that the Axon 7 will be Daydream-ready this fall, which is when the Daydream platform and its VR products will launch.

Finally, ZTE says that the Axon 7 will support T-Mobile band 12 LTE, VoLTE, and Wi-Fi Calling.
