Review: ZTE Salute

Sep 9, 2010, 4:43 PM by Eric M. Zeman

ZTE's first effort for Verizon Wireless demonstrates that some times it is best to start with the basics before moving on to more advanced devices.

Nostalgic, "real phone" lovers might find the ZTE Salute appealing, as it recalls simpler times (like, perhaps, 2007), when vertical sliders with basic operating systems and 12-key dial pads were the norm. If you want a simple device that looks decent and functions (mostly) well, the Salute might just earn a smart snap of the right hand to your right brow.
