ZTE has gradually grown into one of the leading global mobile phone and telecommunication equipment provider. A TGDaily’s sneak peek into the company’s concept phone exhibition has revealed what ZTE has been up with lately.

Amid concepts like the ultra low cost plastic handset with a plastic screen, flip-phone models made with clear plastic keypads, solar powered handset and the previously seen WP623 desktop-like handset, the most appealing has been a fan-phone concept, which appears to relive the Chinese traditional hand fan. The fan phone featuring a digital paper screen, functions just as any ordinary phone besides folding out neatly like a fan – just so reminiscent of its name. Digital paper technology has a long time before it actually matures, so we aren’t going to the fan phone soon.

The ZTE phones may not be available for retail directly to the customers because the company prefers to sell them directly only to the mobile network providers, but the cutting edge concept phones up in exhibition suggests just why the growth still has an upward trajectory.
