ZTE Grand S review

The world's thinnest 5-inch quad-core smartphone

Great specs ; Jelly Bean ; Polycarbonate unibody

Sluggish ; Screen disappointing

A sluggish interface and disappointing screen seriously wound the Grand S, which is then pushed further down the pecking order by the superior Sony Xperia Z and Huawei Ascend D2. Perhaps ZTE will be able to iron out the kinks before the handset ships,...

ZTE Grand S hands-on review

ZTE's offering at CES 2013 is the Grand S, another flagship 5in Full HD smartphone. We've taken a look at the Grand S so here's our hands-on review.

The Grand S is a good effort from ZTE but performance issues and a dim screen worry us. Hopefully a cheap price tag will balance this out.
