If you think of the top of the line phone for this season, it might be not the highly touted Samsung Galaxy SIV (or S4). And it's not that ASUS Padfone Infinity which is driven by the same Qualcomm's Snapdragon S600 as some of the SGS4s. Well, it's not even HTC One.
That is, if you base your choice on performance:
Engadget presenter didn't find the time or desire to present anything though about this ZTE Geek champion:
Mobileggeeks' Nicole couldn't add anything to that either:
So, the phone remains to be seen and reviewed yet. However, sompe specs are known already:
Phonearena puts them this way:

In any case, this ZTE Geek lacks just 1920x1080 screen (it has 1280x720) and extra 1 GB of RAM when compared to the "big" guys. But you can bet it will be priced $150...$200 less than those Samsung, HTC, and ASUS flagships.
Of course, if you plan to burn top dollar for top phone, then there's nothing beats Lenovo IdeaPhone K900. But that's a different story altogether, and it's not your "cheapo" ZTE:
Motorola X phone and Nexus 5 remain in their thick clouds of fog as per yet, so noone knows whether they will happen to be geekier.
