ZTE Grand X

You might not have heard of ZTE - its full name is Zhongxing Telecommunication Equipment - but like so many companies such as Ericsson and Huawei, ZTE was originally a telecommunications equipment supplier, but like the other companies it's also had...

Feels sturdy, barebones Android, Dolby Mobile

Touchscreen is not great, quite a dull phone, a bit too expensive

ZTE gets a lot of credit from us for providing a simple, barebones version of Android. Many users like this, and unlike early versions of the mobile OS, in its default flavour, it's pretty much feature-complete.

ZTE Grand X review

ZTE impresses with a dual-core stock Android 4.0 device for the masses

Cheap ; Pure Android 4.0 ; Dual-core Tegra 2 ; Fast browser

Plastic feel ; Low quality screen ; Average media ; Nexus clone

ZTE has big ambitions to join the likes of HTC and Samsung at the top of the Android pile, and the ZTE Grand X is the company's biggest statement of intent yet.

ZTE Grand X Review

£200 can get you a spectacular 16GB Google Nexus 7 by Asus. £200 can also get you a pint sized yet potent Sony Xperia U or Intel's first foray into smartphones, the Orange San Diego. £200 is clearly…

Great gaming experience ; Sharp screen ; Relatively stock Android

Build feels hollow ; Camera under-performs ; Occasional stability issues

ZTE Grand X review

ZTE's Grand X delivers well on some levels. The combination of good specifications for less than Â£200 with unspoilt Android 4.0 makes it an attractive package. It will certainly play games and suits video content too. However, you should take into...

ZTE Grand X

The ZTE Grand X is a brand-new Android smartphone from the upcoming Chinese mobile maker. Typically the company has been known for its low rent handsets which cost next to nothing but this marks the start of a new era for the company in the West. The...

While we like what ZTE is trying to do with the Grand X it doesn't quite represent value for money. If you want the stock Android experience then you should go with Samsung Galaxy Nexus instead: it costs around the same now but has a larger screen and...
