I bought the Blade for 99 dollars at Metro PCS. Love it. I have installed several large apps and have not even made a dent in the memory. Sound quality with ear buds is good too. The large screen is nice too as I don't have a laptop or iPad. Camera quality is decent. I bought a protective case, an Otter and it feels nice in my hand. Nice phone.
I've had it 7 months now and continue to love it. I will never buy a high end phone again! KILLER battery that's saved me countless times. Interesting variety of camera options thanks to the dual camera, though I do miss the detail found in higher end phone cameras and the ability to take decent photos in dim light. But for this amazing price, I can live with it.
Any body can tell what phone better the ZTE prox max or the ZTE blade max got the zte prox and amazon for 150 still thus year oready 2020 and the blade max for $99 thing zte blade better phone one to buy one thinking what work better thsnk s much
Had mine couple of weeks. The display quality is better than my old Max Pro. Never used fingerprint scanner before, glad I set it up on this phone. Pretty good for $99
I busted the screen on mine about a year ago and I found a new Z982 somewhere on Amazon for about $90, the same price the repair place wanted to fix the screen.
I have a ZTE max ultra, I'm still down impressed with how such a cheap phone has so many amazing features. Amazing battery, the best I've ever had. Hands down
The battery is a beast! I play GTA vice city and GTA San Andreas and with my brightness turned down I can play for a full 8 hours on a single charge. And it fast charges so it fully recharges in appx an hour's time. They've got some awesome cases and screen protectors on Amazon for really cheap too. Since putting on the case/protector I've dropped it literally 100 times and it didn't hurt the phone at all. I've never been happier with a phone, especially since I got it for free from metro PCS.
Big Tech can keep their iPhone and All their other expensive crap! After 3 years of use now, my Blade Zmax is still standing tall next to the newer phones on the market and I'll happily keep it for as long as I can! 😁 It's my own personal opinion/belief that this is the best phone ever made!
The Pop up ads are absolutely horrible . What's worse is your unable to stop or disable the very unwanted ads. When you ask how to disable the unwanted ad's you're going to be told you can't . You can download another app that doesn't guarantee stopping all pop-ups ads it's a nightmare . Because if you are trying to watch a video or whatever you will be disturbed.
I am trying to figure out which is a better phone, I am now using a moto x pure edition. In your opinion, which is a better phone Moto x plus 5 or the zte blade max? Also can you tell me if the max blade has where you can make the screen smaller? Great video...
Before I switched to metro, I had the zte Max xl for a month, that phone overheated twice, had problems connecting to my wifi, but my zte blade Max is way better no problems with it at all
Pretty good phone for the money,had mine for over a year now and mine does lag and freezes up from time to time so I'm gonna get that 128gb card and see if that helps it...
Great helpful info. One issue, when using the mic, why doesn't google maps understand zero? Puts it in initially, but then deletes it with the next number.
necromancer101 I have a stylo 2 plus and I'm looking to upgrade. I'd like a better camera. It's main camera 13mp has not been upgraded. The camera has always sucked. Do you think this phone has a better camera? I don't expect iPhone quality pics, but at least the ability to take better pictures would sway me completely, most other things being equal or greater.
Dontbthirsty -Notadrink Well the camera quality is great and there are reviews out there that compare them to the galaxy note 8 camera amd iphone camera they have the differences but the phone has way more camera features and for the price the camera is just as comparable to the expensive model phones.
I don't have a pro are they able to stop unwanted pop up ads ? because my Zet Max doesn't allow me to disable the unwanted ad's it's very distracting as well as frustrating.
@@teddyisbell2119 how the phone i good phone pleope saint the zte prox better want to buy it dont no what phone better let me know h tha phone work good p thank s much
Top reason not to switch from ZTE Zmax Pro, Battery life is still good in the Pro and it has better scratch / shatter resistant glass. I'm keeping my Pro until something better comes along.
only BAD thing i can think of this phone and i am very upset about it, ZTE if you reading, please get your phone to have OTG support!!!! you beat all premium phones with battery/screen why miss OTG support??!! comon guy's.. next generation you better have OTG...LOL, ZTE is the hidden tiger of smartphone market, if they can tweak a little bit market themselves more, it will be a force to be reckon with..if u agree give me a thumbs up.
Had this phone for less than a week with metro and the battery died and metro wouldn't fix it or replace it so I went to boost and got the ZTE Zmax XL and I love it so much
I got 2 of these phones for free and my friend and I love them. All the features are the best, the battery life is wonderful and the 32gb of internal memory is the best. The dual cameras are the best on the market to you can't beat that. I'm getting ready to get one for my daughter and add her onto my plan, I'm getting the phone for a hundred dollars off and only adding her for an extra $10 dollars a month to my bill so you can't beat that
H2TechVideos very true its very impressive and becoming pretty popular I used one for a bit I only sold it because I got a sweet deal on a used Galaxy S7 but now I want another Blade
Troy Wright yeah. No reason to waste money or time on Samsung when phones like this exist. I've absolutely loved my Blade. Won't change it for the world.
D. Page yea I'm using galaxy S7 right now and I can honestly say the build is spectacular but it doesn't really matter because a case is a must other than build it's faster and the camera is better but when your not using them side but side it's honestly hard to tell I think the Blade is truly spectacular and I think it could be labeled a flag ship killer I don't have any complaints on the blade can't really think of one
Sadly I must have a dud.... Only way to light the screen is click power button. same to black it out. Very easy to turn down the volume, then you have no idea if your getting called or text. Just a black screen. metro, plus everybody and their neighbor has tried to change the screen settings. My old LG will out run its speed any day of the week, as for all that fancy dual camera stuff, its a pain in the butt. It does take a good picture, but forget a kodak moment. Set up time is to long!
this is the best phone under 200 you can buy possibly under 275.. not even a question the only other phone I would say could ALMOST compete is the Lg j7 prime that is a solid phone but lacks a couple features but in return has more ram I believe as well as a new version of Android.
the axcess to split screen and internal 32 g memory was fucking awesome! i also love the key board options with out having to down load a keyboard app its an enternal option and i love it also the volume and dolby sound the dual camera is amazing 10 stars all around
when I recorded videos with it or did Facebook live music events the internal mic is way to sensitive and distortion is through the roof!!!!! any way to fix that????
5) constantly saying limited or no data or internet connection. 6) Buttons are extremely hard to press. 7) camera constantly keeps coming on and switching rapidly from front to back camera without me touching the phone. 8) can't transfer apps to the memory card, like was great on the ZTE Max Pro. 9) constantly opens apps without my input. 10) volume level constantly changing on it's own. 11) keeps making phone calls on it's own. 12) constantly saying data usage warning even though I have the MetroPCS $50 unlimited plan. 13) ALL of these problems occurred within the first day I had this model. 14) obviously, most people have not had these negative issues with their ZTE Max Blade. I've been told that my phone might have many manufacturing defects. 15) the worst problem I've had is with the MetroPCS company. They said they can't find anything wrong with the phone I have. They said if they are going to replace the phone, I can only get a refurbished one. That really sucks MetroPCS. I want a brand new phone.
I just got that yesterday ,i also have the z max pro ,there is not much difference ,pretty much everything is exactly same or little better except big difference in camera, I love this one but you can get the zmax at $79 @ metro pcs and this one @$130
the only thing is u can't change the battery. u supposedly can but I tried on mine and the screen went to shit. so basically u can destroy it phone trying
I don't really trust ZTE since the last phone I got, forgot the name of the phone though it was pretty cheap, I'm more of an LG or Samsung guy. I need a new phone and this looks promising, I might think about getting it ZTE Blade Z Max
the ear speakers dont work on mine and I havent had it a year. I listened and looked at these review before I bought this ZTE 928 AND I wish I didnt buy it.
TBH, I Hate ZTE! It Sucks, The Battery Life Lasts Like For 6 Hours! It Blacks Out On UA-cam Too Much! It Stopped Sending My Notifications! I Now Have The LG STYLO 3 It's Great! BTW I GOT MY LG STYLO 3 AT CRICKET! METRO IS SLOW AF! CRICKET IS FAST AND RELIABLE
had a zmax. after a year it started having data issues connecting to 4g or any g..bought a blade..after a year same issues as well as the power button stopped working. zte is crappy. so i bought a galaxy 10. i guess u get what u pay for. ZTE is SHIT.
INDIONYC VAPE No where lol to be eligible for the 99$ price you have to be with metro or coming in with new activation which you will still pay more /:
They have a new promotion going on if you buy the 60$ rate plan which is unlimited everything with hotspot it takes 60$ off of the 100$ phone so in total your paying 100$ with the first month bill instead of 170$
It only has 3 GB Ram.I want 4 and I also want camera at least 16 pixels.I have now Moto X Pure with 3 GB Ram.I am looking to upgrade.It does get buggy and glitchy even in You Tube sometimes and even when I am reading something thru Firefox browser on it.

Just moved my number to metroPCS. Got the Blade for FREE! Really great device!
I've had mine for a month and I can't be more satisfied with both the quality and performance of this phone.

Sierra Uecker I switched to metro and got it for 66

I got this phone yesterday I'm in love with it the screen is big and the fast changed is amazing
Had mine a couple months have had no issues. Really recommend this device
I busted the screen on mine about a year ago and I found a new Z982 somewhere on Amazon for about $90, the same price the repair place wanted to fix the screen.
I had this phone since launch date and the Battery still lasts all day sometimes 2 days it's a battery Beast
I have a ZTE max ultra, I'm still down impressed with how such a cheap phone has so many amazing features. Amazing battery, the best I've ever had. Hands down

It's Jan. 2020 and I just ordered my z max for $85, and it's the last batch of ZTE's on the market since they are now banned. I can't wait.

B.L. Simpson same
Does this phone have wireless charging features. If what wireless charging device is compatible?
Got it for free with Metro! Love it! Very informative video. Thanks!
I am trying to figure out which is a better phone, I am now using a moto x pure edition. In your opinion, which is a better phone Moto x plus 5 or the zte blade max?
Also can you tell me if the max blade has where you can make the screen smaller?
Great video...
i saw about 11 reviews for this same phone..yours was the best..thanks.
Just Moved my number today got the ZTE Blade Z Max. So far so good!
Before I switched to metro, I had the zte Max xl for a month, that phone overheated twice, had problems connecting to my wifi, but my zte blade Max is way better no problems with it at all
I'm using it as we speak and I will say it's the best phone I've ever had and the best phone I've ever used!!!
Pretty good phone for the money,had mine for over a year now and mine does lag and freezes up from time to time so I'm gonna get that 128gb card and see if that helps it...
Great helpful info. One issue, when using the mic, why doesn't google maps understand zero? Puts it in initially, but then deletes it with the next number.
I got mine for $50 just by adding a 3rd line to the account, amazing phone really good especially for the price
Don't forget the 16Mp + 2Mp Dual camera guys!
Modo portrait it works great

Top reason not to switch from ZTE Zmax Pro, Battery life is still good in the Pro and it has better scratch / shatter resistant glass. I'm keeping my Pro until something better comes along.
To this day I still have my blade and I need to buy another one for a backup... I don't think they make them anymore
You still should be able to get one....

Every time I record something like me at a concert or just out with music, the playback audio sucks so bad.
Great video, no wasted time or long intro.

Julie Hildebrand my father has his plan, but why is your daughter only 10 dollars more if I may ask
Does anyone know how to take of the battery percentage sign
I just purchased this phone I love it...
Still don't know how they did it at that price
+Troy Wright my guess is it was a strategic play for marketshare.
H2TechVideos very true its very impressive and becoming pretty popular I used one for a bit I only sold it because I got a sweet deal on a used Galaxy S7 but now I want another Blade

This video was very helpful, thank you. 😎
I just got it I love it so much it really great of u like big phones definitely get it it's bigger and wilder then the I phone 7
luv my zmax nice video u got a new sub
Sadly I must have a dud.... Only way to light the screen is click power button. same to black it out.

I wish you could change the color of the pulse light. But it's still an amazing phone and I had a Galaxy s7
ZTE should sell the Factory Unlocked version so everybody can have the phone without goin with MetroPCS
Chanse Ormon you could buy one with one month of service, unlock it and switch to your carrier. Still a hell of a deal.
Chanse Ormon if you get with metro you can device unlock it after 3 months. I'm with cricket and I got unlimited and my phone is device unlocked
Chanse Ormon I paid and had my cell unlocked when I first got the zte I asked if they would unlock it I paid not a lot either
Shirley Dutes who are you with?
I agree should work on both cdma and gsm carriers.
Zte zmax blade XL is great phone
Shame they still aren't doing that free deal.
I love this phone . I got it for $15.00 because I ported my number from att ..sweet
Can you make a video of ZTE blade Z max vs the LG stylo 3 plus?
many comparison videos already on youtube. most reviews favor the blade. camera, screen size and battery life
Jay D For the price the blade is better the lg stylo 3 is more expensive and for what for a "popular" brand?
this is the best phone under 200 you can buy possibly under 275.. not even a question the only other phone I would say could ALMOST compete is the Lg j7 prime that is a solid phone but lacks a couple features but in return has more ram I believe as well as a new version of Android.

I was going to get this phone, but do to the lack of updates I left it in the Metro Store. I had to go back to Google and land a Pixel XL.
A nother cool thing about it is that it fully charges in 45 minits evry time
New subbie alert 😁😘😊😊💪
Mine has shitty wifi reception at home when other devices work,but anywhere is ok.
when I recorded videos with it or did Facebook live music events the internal mic is way to sensitive and distortion is through the roof!!!!! any way to fix that????

Is the scream glas or plastic?

Not impressed at all with the glass, but otherwise I love it. Have one for my business and one for private use.
Anyone else have problems with it freezing for several seconds sometimes especially when using the camera? I didn't have this issue with my Zmax Pro
Does this phone tell you if someone is typing while texting?
Okie Dokie no unless you and the person you are texting download Android messages and both use it as the default messaging app
sam cowell oh ok

Were can I walk in and purchase this phone on the spot for $100
INDIONYC VAPE No where lol to be eligible for the 99$ price you have to be with metro or coming in with new activation which you will still pay more /:
Metro pcs
They have a new promotion going on if you buy the 60$ rate plan which is unlimited everything with hotspot it takes 60$ off of the 100$ phone so in total your paying 100$ with the first month bill instead of 170$
That's what I actually got
It's the best
What is the best phone with 4 GB Ram,good speakers at least 5.5 inch screen fm radio,wi fi direct and 64 total memory but under 400 US dollars?

It only has 3 GB Ram.I want 4 and I also want camera at least 16 pixels.I have now Moto X Pure with 3 GB Ram.I am looking to upgrade.It does get buggy and glitchy even in You Tube sometimes and even when I am reading something thru Firefox browser on it.
