[ZTE](http://www.engadget.com/tag/zte/)'s no stranger to phones that provide more [bang for your buck](http://www.engadget.com/2012/10/29/ztes-u950-tegra-3-phone/), so it's hardly surprising to see evidence of a new mid-range phablet from the Chinese outfit. The leaked images may not point towards another [world first](http://www.engadget.com/2013/01/08/zte-grand-s/), but the device apparently runs Android 4.1.2 and is rumored to pack a 5-inch, 1,280 x 720 display and a quad-core [MediaTek MT6589](http://www.engadget.com/tag/mt6589/) SoC. There's also support for China's [TD-SCDMA](http://www.engadget.com/tag/td-scdma/) networks, while an 8-megapixel camera joins some [China Mobile](http://www.engadget.com/tag/chinamobile/) branding on the back. Some specifications are still missing, but if the pricing is as low as expected, the smartphone could likely be an option for penny-pinchers who can't afford its [designer cousin](http://www.engadget.com/2012/12/26/nubia-z5-launch/).
