ZTE ZMax Pro review

How is this phone so cheap?

Incredible value ; Good build quality ; Close to stock Android

Dim screen ; Bad speaker

The ZMax Pro is an incredible value for an affordable phone that does so much right. But it's not worth switching carriers for.

ZTE ZMax Pro review

ZTE's ZMax Pro is the best $100 Android phone we've ever used.

Put simply, the ZMax Pro is the bargain of the year. You’ll be hard pressed to find a phone with a 6-inch screen HD screen, octa-core processor, 3,400mAh battery, and fingerprint sensor for $100, much less $200. The Asus ZenFone 2 starts at $200, but...

ZTE Zmax Pro

The ZTE Zmax Pro is an affordable MetroPCS phablet that offers lots solid value for its low price.

Affordable. Large 1080p display. Good overall performance. Fingerprint sensor. Expandable storage.

Big and heavy. Dim screen. Some bloatware.

Software and Conclusions The Pro comes running Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow , with some UI customization from ZTE and bloatware from MetroPCS. App icons are different from stock Android, the notification shade is transparent, and the wallpaper features a...

The ZTE ZMax Pro offers impressive specs for under $100 (hands-on)

What if I told you there was a smartphone you could buy for under $100? You may be a little skeptical. Surely such a low cost device would come with some sacrifices, right? Wrong.

ZTE Zmax Pro Review – This $99 Phone Actually Rocks

A 6″ phablet for $99? The ZTE Zmax Pro is proof that a budget smartphone doesn't have to suck. For starters, not only does the ZTE Zmax Pro have a large display, but that display is light years ahead of the typical display you'll find on a $99 budget...

ZTE Zmax Pro Review: A $99 Big-Screen Bargain

The Zmax Pro doesn't have any breakthrough features, but at $99, it really doesn't need to. ZTE's latest phone is a useful phablet if you're shopping for price, a larger display size and better-than-average battery life. If you're OK being tied down to...

Bright 6-inch display ; Compelling price given its specs ; Sleek

Lackluster cameras ; Limited to one carrier

ZTE’s Zmax Pro is a good budget phone for anyone shopping for price, display size and solid battery life that lasts throughout the day.

Review: ZTE ZMax Pro for MetroPCS

The ZMax Pro is an Android smartphone that delivers a premium experience and powerful performance at an affordable price point. This budget-minded handset is no cheap simpleton. The ZMax Pro is a well-rounded addition to MetroPCS' roster of phones....

The ZTE ZMax Pro is a hell of a good value. MetroPCS is selling it for $99, which makes it the best bargain in Metro's lineup. Metro has a handful of phones in the $50 to $80 range and more in the $150 to $200 range, but none as balanced as the ZMax Pro.
