ZTE Blade V8 - User Reviews

  • My second sin is not working

  • I've had mine for about a month now and I really like it. The cameras are great.

  • Well it is but. the battery drains fast due to that the game is very demanding

  • Quick question.. is this phone capable of playing Pokémon go? It says it has a gyro sensor so in theory it should be.

  • My opinion: As we own two of these phones on an insurance base with three. We have only encountered the problem to be the fact that the screen easily breaks on soft carpet.. Whilst waiting for our cases to arrive. Luckily it only happened to one phone. But overall. GREAT. Thumbs up from me. Its dual camera is good. I love the battery life. it's a real good phone for me. Despite you can't enjoy it out of the case.

  • When all other companies fail this actually looks good 194 € whit 64GB storage and 3GB RAM.

  • Does it support both capturing devices and peripheral card readers via Serial Port Profile (SPP)?

  • This actually has 2 rear facing identical color cameras. You could use it for 3D photography. Even many of the other dual camera phone models have 1 color and 1 monochrome, so this phone has a slight advantage for that feature alone. You can't even find a 3D camera for less than $200. Let alone one that does 13MP! Not bad. And with a Sanpdragon 435 core, it doesn't completely suck as a personal computing device either.

  • why?

  • Bought it for 149€, it´s pretty good for that price and replaces my - back in the day - way too expensive S7 Edge. It´s biggest strength is, that it doesn´t have any real weaknesses. Good screen, good battery run time, good calling quality, great fingerprint scanner, very decent camera and audio via Bluetooth and AUX. It also has Dual SIM (shared), wich is a viable option with 32GB internal memory. The only real downsides are the lack of 5GHz WLAN and the weak main speaker. The Mifavor UI does, despite the not very potent Snapdragon 435 (it´s sufficient for almost all 3D games though), work more fluently and stable than my S7 Edge ever did. I like it, good phone if you get it cheap.

  • zte is really bad

  • blade v8 7.0 frp? help me

  • It says that this phone is dual sim, but however in the manual for the phone is doesn't mention anything about dual sim. You can put the 2nd simcard in the SDcard holder, but it won't recognise the sim. In the setting you can't find anything about dual sim or sim management. a ZTE phone is and will stay a joke.

  • Is this Phone working for CXT soft ware to collect the Data

  • It is dual sim on the phone look up Settings--> Dual sim settings The menu is visible regardless if you have 1 ,2 or no sim inserted. and check the icon in the sim tray both the nano sims must be parallel

  • micromax is borrowing it to launch as their dual 4..hahahahaha....

  • It does not reckognise the second sim card - is it really a dual sim phone? I don't find the "Dual Card Management" function in the settings menu.

  • how to remove frp?

  • The battery of this phone is not enogh to last long.I wish to see 4000mah on every device with 5.5 inch.It should be standard

  • It looks nice to be honest, but ZTE - why use microUSB v2.0, why!? Move on!

  • Dual camera on low budget chipset. Its official. This camera is a norm now.

  • at least, looks different
