Rumor: ZTE will release the world’s first 4K smartphone this year

Although smartphones with 2K screens are nothing new, the resolution is only just now starting to become the de facto standard for flagship devices. In order to distinguish itself in a crowded market, however, ZTE will reportedly be the first company to equip a smartphone with a 4K display. According to reports, the company’s upcoming Star 3 flagship will come with a 5.5-inch 2160×3840 display, which would offer an insane 806 pixels-per-inch.
