Design and Display
There has been some improvement to the look in the Homtom Zoji Z7 with a more compact and well built body which emphasizes its rugged nature. The Homtom smartphone has a nice aesthetic despite the bulky nature of its build which is common to other rugged smartphones. However, the Homtom Zoji Z7 is much more thicker than its predecessor and also weighs more at 204g and a thickness of 11.9 mm.
Things are pretty much the sane except an increase in screen size to 5.0-inches while still retaining the 1280 x 720 pixel resolution IPS display. Although, the pixel density seems to have dropped to 294 ppi which might be due to the increased screen size.
