    • nice phone but cant use on network
It's a nice phone but all of the networks won't take the phone they said it's a old device to work on the network that we have now.

    • Decent phone. I only paid $143, then the price skyrocketed. Supply and demand I guess.
Decent phone. I only paid $143, then the price skyrocketed the very next day!. Supply and demand I guess. Better than my older 3G phone. My son had the exact same phone, so when I needed to upgrade my old phone I ordered this because Metro PCS was pushing their newer ZTE phone (Blaze?) with a slower processor! Now the only ZTE phone Metro PCS has is the ZTE Avid 4. Unfortunately the Zmax Pro Z981 doesn't support On-The-Go (OTG) features. I can live without them, but I hoped to use it as a GPS screen with my Icom IC-2820H mobile D-Star ham radio. Also with the new Android versions (mine has Android version 6.0.1), you can't install apps to the SD card like my old phone, supposedly for "security" reasons (yeah right), so even if the SD card has tons of room, the phone only uses the internal RAM for storing software and fills up fast. The camera is pretty good. Battery life is short if you play games or listen to music/watch videos on Youtube, maybe 4-6 hours without a charge... I just keep mine plugged in all the time. Use a 2 Ampere charger (or larger), not a 1 Ampere charger, or it will hardly charge during use. ... show more

    • Can't use the phone
I paid $136 for the phone,the very next day it was $49. They said unlocked phone and it is not,but then said they didn't say it was unlocked like what can anybody do with a locked phone. I have the same phone and I cracked it that's the only reason I bought the phone cause I wanted the same phone.

    • $50 Cheaper at a Metro PCS Store
So far the phone is great, that said I've only had it a few days. It has a good size screen, good looking display, decent sound and the phone is working properly. I don't like the fact that it has a different charger than my last ZTE, so all my old chargers (the same charger that most android phones use) are now worthless. I also don't like how Amazon is selling it for 150 bucks when you can get it at a Metro PCS Store for 99 bucks. I'll update the review later after I've used the phone for a while. UPDATE: This phone has a horrible battery life. Also, there is a problem with the default texting program which sends and receives texts multiple times. If you have this problem, download Google Text Messenger and use it as your default text program. The other problem I have is that I can't completely disable notification sounds when I'm listening to music. ... show more

    • Awesome seller
Phone was amazing, I am a cheap phone buyer always (as opposed to an iPhone or whatever) and I love this phone. The fingerprint sensor is amazing, it has so much storage for the price, and it's so big. 10/10. On top of everything this seller is great. This is a Metro PCS phone and will only work on Metro PCS network. In case you were wondering, it will not work on T-Mobile so don't be stupid like me and buy it if that's what you're looking for. It can't be unlocked unless you have Metro PCS. On the bright side, this seller was amazing, they refunded me my money no sweat and are fantastic. Will be buying this phone for my network! ... show more

I loved my phone! was having a hard time replacing my ZTE yes I like them and they are no longer available new on Metro. it came sooner than expected in pristine condition and I am very happy. the price was beyond reasonable. the battery life is what it is I've had about 5 of these ZTEs great phones real warriors but battery was always an issue on all of them but they take beautiful pictures with the dual camera and huge screen is perfect for my games and movie watching which is what I use my phones for the most. thank you for sending me a great phone definitely a great purchase. ... show more

    • Love this phone but
Since it was used it does have a couple scratches on the back but my case covers it. Plus the screen sometimes is unresponsive when I'm playing games. Also it shut off on its own a couple times from the screen not being responsive. I bought a brand new one at Metro but then my screen cracked bad so I ordered one on here. Phone came at a decent time & don't get me wrong, I love this phone overall. But being completely honest I should've just got the screen fixed on my new one that broke. Oh well. ... show more
