On May 26, ZTE held a new product launch conference in Beijing, releasing the 2016 flagship ZTE new product, ZTE AXON Tianji 7. This time, AXON Tianji 7 did not adopt the dual camera design of AXON Tianji, but returned to the common single rear camera. The hardware is still as violent as ever, not only using 2K screen and Snapdragon 820, but also using the combination of AK4961 codec+AK4490 DAC in audio.

ZTE AXON Tianji 7 uses Snapdragon 820 SoC and a 5.5 inch 2K AMOLED screen. The camera is 20 million pixels F/1.8 and is equipped with optical anti shake, back fingerprint identification. The battery capacity is 3170mAh. It supports dual cards, dual standby+full network access. In terms of audio, ZTE AXON Tianji 7 uses the dual HiFi design of AK4961 codec+AK4490 DAC and dual stereo external playback.

In terms of price, the operator customized 4GB+64GB is 2899 yuan; 4GB+64G version sells for 3099 yuan; RMB 3299 for 4GB+128GB version; The price of 6GB+128GB (3D pressure screen+walnut panel) version is 4099 yuan. In addition, ZTE's VR box was simply mentioned in the press conference, with a price of 518 yuan.

The biggest feature of ZTE AXON Tianji 7 is that it uses the dual HiFi design of AK4961 codec+AK4490 DAC, which are the same chip of Sony professional recorder PCM-D100 and Aili and AK380 (sold for 20000 yuan), of which AK4961 codec is used for recording and AK4490 DAC is used for HiFi playback. However, it is worth noting that there are two AK4490 DACs on Aili and AK380, and ZTE AXON Tianji 7 is one. However, as a mobile phone, AXON Tianji 7 is directly equipped with the same DAC chip of the top player, which makes us very curious about its sound quality.
