ZTE Blade A520 - User Reviews

  • my zte blade a520 won't turn on, black screen and the indicator light always on when i charge but off when not charge it... i already try to push volume up button and power button but nothing happened..my phone won't turn on...can anyone help me ???

  • This phone is legendary. Without a doubt

  • so...when i formated my SD card as internal..some of the apps not working... and when I connected this phone to my laptop, the SD card file not appear....what should I do?

  • Wrong, this phone has 2 SIM slots + 1 micro SD slot.

  • You can't move apps to the SD card. You have to use the Android fonction to use the microSD as internal storage. In advanced settings > storage > SD card > format as internal. Caution : this will erase the SD card content. Advantage : your SD card is fully part of your storage Inconvenient : you don't know what's phisically on the SD card or on the phone memory. You can't use the SD card outside the phone. You can't change the SD card since you don't know what datas are on it.

  • microSD, up to 128 GB (uses SIM 2 slot)!!!

  • Does anybody know how can I move stuff to my SD Card? I only have 2 apps installed and I already have no space left on my phone. Thanks

  • It doesn't SUPPORT OTG, in any hp if you want to know it suppirt OTG check at setting, add connection look for OTG enable, cant find means, didn't support

  • I used my phone for about 3months now, but it just goes up even when the battery is at 100percent and a little less.

  • Its a good phone..If anyone wants to buy the phone that within his budget,this phone is affordable

  • The A520 is a seriously good phone, except that the 700Mhz 4G reception is poor. In Australia, the 850Mhz 3G is tuned to Telstra, and that works very well, but the upload power is not as good as the old ZTE T100. The camera is very good and does brilliant macro shots. The weight is very low, but the screen is a nice glass. It feels very good in the hand and packs Android 7, which has very few things that annoy me. It's the kind of phone that makes you wonder how the high end phones can really differentiate themselves.

  • Hello, Friends. I Have a ZTE Blade A510 "Made in Brazil". My Phone have the bands in use here (here in Brazil) 2G: 850, 900, 1800 3G: 850, 2100 4G/LTE: 700 (Band 28), 1800 (Band 3) and 2600 (Band 7)

  • if you want a full storage usage go to settings,advance settings,storage,tap sd card and format it as an internal.If u have 16gb external + 8gb internal phone = 24gb internal storage.

  • umm, you know there is something called a MEMORY CARD

  • I hace the 1gb versión, AND have two cameras of 13mp

  • Just simple suggestion, Do not buy this mobile! I do not know about the other models of ZTE. But their OS has problem with memory consumption. This phone says, it has 8 GB internal memory, but you will barely be able to use 1 GB space for yourself. Only few number of apps you will be able to install! Camera also very slow and not possible to turn of the sound of the shutter! Very very annoying.

  • Do anybody try using OTG thumb-drive? I tried too many time but can't detect my OTG thumbdrive. Help me...

  • It has 2 type 1gb and 2 gb

  • why my zte blade says only 4gb internal storage. plz help.. i only can intall whatsapp n fb lite.. i cant intall onther apps coz it says dont have enough memory..sit!!

  • i already use for zte a310 and i very satisfy with performance with money. Zte is less hang compare others. Good! but this model a520 can detect for compass or not? A310 cannot use for compass because not have magnetic sensor.

  • the system use a lot of memory

  • Yes its have 2 types..1 or 2 gb ram..but 1 gb ram its more cheaper..the CPU still same

  • used 3 days so far,the only problem I had is when the battery is below 10%,it drains to 1% in like 30 seconds.

  • have problem with sd card slot and battery wire but already fix by service

  • 1gb ram ???

  • 1, just saw it in the box

  • Do this phone has 1 Gb RAM or 2Gb RAM?

  • Is that a de-branded Nokia 3 ? It seems very similar in its specs. Except that the Nokia 3 seems to have a better casing and construction (with metal frame and gorilla glass display)
