This phone was announced yesterday and I am in love with it already. Price is OK at $600 AUD however the only issue is that it does not support B28(700). Does that mean I will not get 4G in Australia? I'm with Optus.
ZTE Axon 7

75% of Optus 4G towers have Band 28. Of course towers have multiple frequencies, but this means you're still losing a fair bit of 4G coverage.
Correct me if im wrong but doesn't Australia use band 28 via 700MHZ? I think the one on Amazon is band 28 via 2600mhz
This will probably be my next phone.
Yeah, it looks like a brilliant phone at the projected US pricing. I hope we get it here too, although somehow I doubt it. I just hope it is easy to import as this is a phone that really interests me. It'd be far better if it is officially released here, and not as a exclusive to Telstra phone but one that you can purchase outright as I am on Boost Mobile and I would not give up on prepaid for anything. The specs look awesome, so if it is executed well then it is sure to be a winner if the price is right and it lives up to its potential.
does anyone know if the phone will be released in Australia
Guess what folks, this phone is coming to Australia officially in October.

If this happens to be true, then line me up to get one!!!
Hi all guys i have been using the phone for the last one month got it imported from the states working flawlessely supports all 4g bands and i have to say that it perform better than my last galaxy s7 edge in both cpu performance and blows it in the sound segment
I love the look of the Axon series..
Really hope that ZTE Australia pick the range up and bring it here with Australian specs.
Paying any more than $300 for a phone without full band support seems stupid to me.
It'll still get 4G in Metro Areas, Band 28 just gives you better coverage in metro (and faster speeds), and significantly better coverage in regional areas.
