even-though missed the Sunday rm399 offer, but hehe just pre-order from lazada and apply discount code SAVE75 so price around rm430 hehe
*
sunday price is 50% slashing, only RM334.50 but without the smart flip casing, with free tpu back case + screen protector together, if want flip case, total price is RM380.

some lazada preorder's buyers claimed did not rececive the tpu case + screen protector, only got smart flip case

i personally don prefer any flip case, particularly this zte 5" phone is designed with one hand operated in mind, only 70.2mm width

in fact, several zte 5" inch phone also in that good user design,

axon mini 5.2" also 70mm
S7 even less than 70mm

on the oppposite, huawei growing bigger & bigger width, say bye bye to one hand operation

thus i don wanna wait honor 5c - 5.2", 73.8mm

china brand is it ?

ZTE & Huawei not just consumer phone maker, they are actually prominent industrial telecommunication solution providers, same like ericsson

in malaysia here, Digi deploy ZTE 4G LTE network

Umobile sign up with ZTE to roll up 5G network

here are the cons (based on my experience) after used it for ~3 days:
-speaker sound quite slow..
-no Full HD video recording..
-fingerprint reader sometimes not detect my fingerprint..
-720p screen (but saves battery)..
-front 8mp camera just OK..same as my 5mp redmi note in term of quality..
-back 13mp camera just OK..enough for point/shoot & instagram..
-performance just OK coz use mediatek MT6735p 1 GHZ only..sometimes freeze & lag..
-no comment on games coz I don't play games on phone..
-got thick black border around the screen..I hate it!
-small battery, 2500mAH only..but sufficient due to 720p screen..
-dual sim slot but 2nd slot shared with micro SD..
-no gyroscope..so cannot use in Android Cardboard VR..

here are the pros (based on my experience) after used it for ~3 days:
-cheap!!
-got fingerprint reader..
-sexy 2.5D screen..
-solid aluminium build quality..
-Android 6.0 out-of-box..
-dual sim card support LTE
-no (or minimum) bloatware..
-got flash for front camera (8mp)..

Anything want me to test? just let me know  thumbup.gif  thumbup.gif

thanks for quick review, i also got mine, but juz unwrap box , not even power on phone yet

since it use nano sim, go to change to nano sim first, and wait for matte screen protector for eye safety concern

one more good point is that this model support LTE band 5

P1 reform company Webe going to launch their (cheap?) LTE band 5 service in June 2016 soon,
normally starting promotion can "abuse" one,,,u know what i mean lah..haha

Just bought this phone not even a week. Does the battery always drain? I left it untouch at 70% battery and  about 12 hours later battery already empty. Does it always like this,
*
if turn on 4g or 3g at bad reception spot, phone would emit highest transmission power in order to stay connected. and this scenario drain battery super fast.

if 4g signal bad, switch to "3g or gsm auto". if can, switch to 'wifi'.

and select "smart power"

select "show connection speed" and it makes the real time data transfer speed shown on top notification bar which let u justify if any app still "working hard" in behind

I remember seeing "show connection speed" before I update the firmware... I can't seem to find it now... Care to point out where to check again please?
Thanks.

bring down top menu, tap the battery icon next to setting icon to top right.

then appear a pen icon sit between battery & setting. tap it.

then got several command options at bottom

one of it is 'show connection speed'

Just a few question, just got my Zte....if i dont use Cellular Data, only wifi. I set it to 2G, but still display 'E' at the signal?

And another, mine didnt come with anything free. Any case or tempered glass to recommend. My kid is going to use it and say it looks too delicate.

i got better back case - https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?act=ST&f=271&t=3996055
