To extend the life of its Axon 7 lineup, ZTE has today announced an improved version of its flagship smartphone - the Axon 7s. The new model is identical to its predecessor, except for hardware that received a small upgrade. Besides that, the old model has received a price cut and is now available for $329.99.

ZTE Axon 7s is powered by a Snapdragon 821 chipset (up from the Snapdragon 820), but there is no word on memory configuration. Probably it will be available with up to 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage, like the previous spec bump.

Other specs are the same, including a 5.5-inch Quad HD display, a 20-megapixel rear camera and Android 7.1 operating system.
