No default gallery app. Pics go to Google photos app. Don't know if I could delete trash after deleting pics. After deleting a video it magically appeared again.

    This phone is absolutely bad, even for its 160€ price range.

    1. The OS here, also called MyOS is not only one of the laggiest UI's on a phone, but also contains a lot of bloatware, resulting the phone to slow down. I have never seen a phone which feels like 30Hz when it was set to 60Hz. MyOS also uses a lot of gradients, even on the volume slider which i dislike. Not only this, but the padding between the status bar and the rounded corners is horrible. The icon and text is nearly inside the rounded corner. Not only this, but the phone is stuck on Android 11, without any options to upgrade to Android 13 or even 14.

    2. The display is also questionable, why does the display have 90Hz but then have a screen resolution of 720p? I would rather get a 1080p display, but then use a 60Hz refresh rate.

    3. A 3.5mm jack is amazing, and so is 5G for the phone. But then the speakers, which are mediocre at best. The SoC is not good at all.

    In short, ZTE can and should really improve on its UI, display and its SoC (Maybe try to use a Snapdragon SoC?). I would recommend to buy a new Samsung Galaxy S7 for 140€ off Ebay, then try to install a custom ROM like LineageOS and Google Apps on it which would still perform better than this phone.

            Also known as Voyage 30? Really? Why is it significantly worse than the Voyage 20 (Pro)? Okay that is a "Pro" phone and this isn't, but as much as I know there was no regular Voyage 20.
