Performance on the sensor is also great
the sensor is still accurate and fast
ZMax Pro is just fine

The image-processing results were uneven in my testing

it is a tad invasive

ZTE ZMax - Pros & Cons

Performance on the sensor is also great
the sensor is still accurate and fast
ZMax Pro is just fine
the camera works well
s pretty streamlined and straightforward
Snapdragon 617 chip makes perfect sense in powering this affordable smartphone
Viewing angles are solid and colors are accurate
Viewing angles are also good
makes the phone fairly easy to hold
Transmissions are clear and natural
offers lots solid value for its low price
The 13-megapixel rear camera is surprisingly good

The image-processing results were uneven in my testing
it was still pretty annoying to come back to the phone and find a huge ad
it is a tad invasive
slow things down
make the UI harder to use
it has an extremely colder color temperature than most at roughly
a phone doesn t mean having to endure a costly investment
the fingerprint sensor on the back of the phone
there s a noticeable level of over-sharpening
nor the accompanying hardware they re just as ordinary as any other low priced phone
more blurry shots and more noise
occasional lag
getting harder and harder to find a bad phone nowadays
the phone is not unlocked
rose gold plastic accents around the phone
Lack of it has been far from a deal breaker for me
device may be too hot or have other apps running in the background
Battery life is very sensitive to changes in screen brightness
this setting cannot be enforced by the benchmark app
Blu R1 HD may cost half as much
lower-resolution display and a slower processor
are noticeably slow to render and controls

ZTE ZMAX Pro Review - is a $100 smartphone worth buying?

There's a stigma that the more you pay, the better something is but the ZTE Z Max Pro aims to prove a low price doesn't mean low quality. Does it deliver?

The ZTE Blade Z Max for MetroPCS is a heck of a bargain, offering dual cameras, long battery life and a huge 6-inch screen for less than you’d expect.
