Show season is right around the corner, and as such we’re subject to the usual rumor mill churning overtime. What we’re seeing here though isn’t one of those rumors, it appears to be cold hard facts. ZTE will announce the Grand S in a press event at CES 2013 in Las Vegas next month. The source — the CES Press Event schedule page.
Being unveiled on Jan. 8 in a press event at the main Convention Center in Las Vegas, the ZTE Grand S is the Chinese OEM’s latest and greatest. It’s a 5-inch device, with an FHD display. More so, it’s supposedly the worlds thinnest 5-inch FHD smartphone — although that market isn’t exactly bursting at the seams right now. So, it’s thinner than the HTC Droid DNA/Butterfly, and according to the folks at CNET, there’ll be a quad-core processor of some variety in there as well. We’d expect Jelly Bean of some variety to be on there too, although there’s no information at this time.
The 5-inch market is expected to come alive during 2013, and it certainly looks like we’re going to hit the ground running in January. Of course, Android Central will be on the ground in Las Vegas throughout to bring you everything you’ll need to know.
