ZTE Blade Vec 4G - User Reviews

  • i used this phone for 4 years, its gpu is below average and heats a lot under load. its camera and video recorder are okay as long as you use a third party app because both have trouble with focusing. I dont take selfies but its below average i guess. It has a high brightness which i believe is a little more than 470 nits, comparing to j5 2017(around 468 nits) model side by side, zte looks brighter. I use it mostly for media consumption, youtube, and its enough for that. Ram is very little, you generally have around 300 to 400mb free and apps usually reload when you switch between them. If you mainly watch youtube and listen to music, i would recommend this phone since i believe it has an above average battery life. Also call quality is good but wifi connection is less powerful(defiinitely below average) than iphone 5s and 6 and j5 pro (only phones i know so can only compare with them). I hope this helps someone.

  • it's durable!!

  • it says that the phone have a dedicated sdcard slot but it dosen't on mine. Don't know if it's like that for the european version

  • whats the meaning of dedicatedslot.

  • I've dropped it about 80-90 times. It is so durable (or maybe lucky)

  • Really good phone. I have had it for almost 2 years and it is still like new. I have dropped it several times and from very high and no cracks or schratses. Love this phone.

  • So I came here to see what ppl say about this phone (before I buy it) and now im having doubts.. I got excited when I saw it and its pictures

  • I really love ZTE Blade Vec 4G but after 6 months suddenly my phone did'nt open I don't why I feel so freaking sad :(

  • Is slow - the GPS is terrible always thinks I'm a couple 100 metres away from where I actually am. Apps keep crashing. Waste of money.

  • Used almost an year, I like it for great looks, hardy and still trendy. One big issue, poor signal strength! I even had to divert to another to avoid missing calls. Even SMS dosent get delivered at once. Any fix for this???

  • Absolutely great phone, have been using it for the last year without an issue!

  • This crapshit crashes, it's slow, and now both my cameras stop working simultaniously.

  • what about the quality of the cam of this phone?

  • Hallo, is working the gps, just need to set to full power

  • fantastic phone - 4g and super fast - great price - good size screen - the problem i see is that it doesnt take micro sd so you have to use the internal memory - which is usually ok but if you want to put hundreds of mp3 files then i dont know if you could ?!

  • Anyone knows what camera this phone has? (model)

  • ZTE blade Vec 3g & 4g are great phone perfectly made to compet leading brand.

  • The brand name ZTE is at the moment virtually nonexistent when it should be up on the top with products such as Apple, HTC and Nokia. The phone itself is a stunning all black slim design, cutting edge curves and amazing functionality which would put the latest HTC ONE M8 to shame. It boasts a super fast Quad-Core 1.2Ghz Processor with a more than ample 1Gb RAM and 4G functionality for connecting to the web at faster than ADSL speeds. It features a clear 5.0 inch OLED screen, which is fantastic for sunny places such as Spain. The onboard Memory is a huge 16GB and has a 13MP Primary Camera and an 8MP Front camera, which is perfect for Skype and the ever popular selfie photos! The camera even allows for recording videos in full 1080p at a phenomenal 30 Frames Per Second! The operating system is the Andriod 4.4.2 Kit-Kat, which allows access to all the latest applications from Google Play such as Facebook, Snapchat and the ever popular Whatsapp. The only downside to this phone in my opinion is the battery and lack of expandable memory. The battery life itself is perfectly fine allowing a full day's use of Facebook, photos and gaming in between charges. However as the phone is a completely sealed unit it isn't possible to change to a heavy duty or long life battery. Also because of the sealed unit it lacks an SD Card Slot so while the 16GB memory is plentiful if you are a snap happy mobile user it would require a microUSB port to upload your photos to the computer.

  • how do I print?

  • Not really ridiculous it rocks a quad core processor which makes the 1gb ram plenty for it! In comparison the Samsung Galaxy S3 only has 1gb ram too but that was/is still a popular phone.

  • i think i know what happened. open settings (yea u need to double tap all the way) and try to find talkback (i think its in the accessibility options?) and disable talkback. if it works make sure to keep ur talkback up to date bcs it happened to my galaxy core i8262 too

  • your device must be rooted. then, download chamelephon app in the market

  • Oh no, how is it possible, no 850mhz 3G support??? Its the only available 3G band where my girlfriend live and theres no EDGE there and no plans for LTE in the area this year. GSM data is 9.6 kbps in her place, in other words not fast enough even for using Facebooks basic mobile site. I thought i found the perfect cheap android and then this dealbreaker, and i refuse to pay a dime more for an LTE phone running something as ridiculous as AD-droid.

  • any one can help me i whant change my imei number how i can change i need prog for change imei number where i can get programme darkmed dragon imei

  • how i can change my imei phone zte blade vec 4g

  • I've had mine since november and am very happy with it. One problem though, I managed to be a klutz and dropped it on asphalt so now it has a thin crack from top to bottom on the screen. Anyone know where I can get legit spare screens on the internet? I've searched everywhere and so far the most "legitimate" place I can find one is eBay. If anyone knows any other place, I'd appreciate it :) PS: I live in Europe so places that ship here would be best :D

  • It runs everything perfectly well, with no lag at all. How is that ridiculous? Why do you need more RAM? Only to exhaust your battery faster? Now that would be ridiculous

  • Blade VEC 4G does not support dual-SIM. This phone comes up with a Micro sim card.

  • Great Phone for the Price. Equal or Better than my Nexus 4!!! The better choice for Greece!!!

  • You can buy it from a specific carier only but it is unlocked so you can use it with any carier.

  • Is the best smartphone! I love It.

  • I didn't use the phone but it's performance is like Moto G and other phones using Snapdragon 400 chipset.
