ZTE Axon Pro / Axon

They forgot Verizon
Just like 99% of the China phone companies, they are short sighted and only make GSM compatibility. Verizon and Sprint are CDMA. With the new Verizon plans, there is an incentive to BYO phone to the Prepaid side. This is because nice phones now cost $600 on the pay monthly plan. No more $100-200 deals.
So, why would these manufacturers ignore 50% of the US market?

Overpriced
Plenty of other Chinese manufacturers with phones out there of the same and better specs and much cheaper.

Not Quite a Waste
While my first impression is this is a wasted effort by ZTE on further reflection, it's not. This could be a part of a larger push to get flagship phones into the hands of consumers for less money. That said, it doesn't seem like that good of an effort.

Looks nice but why are companies insisting on making these huge phones?
Hopefully ZTE will also bring the Nubia Z9 (not Max or Mini) to the 'States. That one is sized whereby most folks could handle it one handed (albeit it's a bit on the heavy side).

Overpriced
Plenty of other Chinese handsets that do not get exposure in North America. Same specs and better and cheaper as well. Ex: Ulephone, Elephone, Oppo, Meizu, to name a few.
