ZTE nubia Z17 miniS - User Reviews

  • EU rom is available to download from the german/spanish site for the Nubia Z17 mini S :) Finally, yaayy!!! I have question, i understood that upto 256 GB microSD card is possible to put in this phone. Anybody tried and did it work good?

  • I agree with you need to do again and again restart to instal new apps from playstore.

  • dont buy this phone its bullshit, have to wait a long time to download apps from playstore, SD652 slowing down the performance like quadcore, not even run octacore even in heavy usage.

  • that US rom is gold! cant find any international rom :( stuck in CN too and it sucks! Any news for a diferent rom?

  • Where to download EU or US rom? Mine came with US rom, but i upgraded with CN rom... Shouldn't have done that.

  • First you have to root your device, than in the nubia store there is a google installer. (box with a play store lcon) just install that app. It will install the google play store and play services.

  • Mine came with chinese bloatware and no google playstore :( how to get rid of bloatware and install playstore?

  • Beautiful georgious looking phone. 6Gb. More nicer then the Samsung note 8! Love it. Bought it for 300 euros including shipping. No regret. Newest android 7.1.1 olso.

  • I don't know how they can call this a mini when it is nearly the same size as its bigger brother. Sure the display is much smaller but the body is too large relative to the larger phone.

  • What different z17? camera same, tft card support No, 3.5 mm Jack no, but more expensive its like a jog

  • when it will be available in Malayisa ?

  • The same size as a "bigger" version, old ARM... Who would ever buy that?

  • i dont understand why SD653 and not SD660. Not learning from past mistake is bad. Z17 mini is flop because of battery.

  • lol 147.5 mm is mini now?

  • it's called Z17 mini Blue not miniS, you can check it in the official website.

  • Why 5.2", not even 5" for a mini?!?! 4.5 - 4.7" IS mini you buffoons! Why SD653 and NOT 660. Bleh!

  • Great Specs,but they didn't updated the back cam, they're same as the z17 mini's & those weren't that much great

  • This hybrid sm trey is the most hating thing now a days. Or else great phone

  • ZTE need to go to hell if they think 5.2" is mini.

  • Hahahahahaha cough 5,2 inch is called mini then how looks maxi? And if they make micro or nano it will be 4,8 and 4,5 inch? :-) Anyway great price great specs. 300 quids for 6gb ram souns really interesting.

  • Agree guess ill be waiting for the samsung galaxy a5 instead

  • I would really like a phone that is 4.5 to 4.7 inches and has semi decent specs and was excited when I saw the work mini. Now just disappointed. My only real choices are a Samsung A3 or Xperia Compact.

  • 5.2" with this sizes 147.5 x 71.2 x 7.6 mm is a stupid design. it should be 140 x 70 x 7.6 mm

  • ha, Honor 8 + nubia m2 design. Design COPY-writers

  • Are you serious? I don't know why they keep naming "mini" phones that are between 5" and 5.5". At least for me, it makes sense to name smartphones like this: screen
