I have a hard time getting internet connection too. I have unlimited LTE data but my videos and movies constantly stop and when they are on they blur. Other ppl I know who have Metro don't have this problem with their phones

I've had the ZTE ZMAX PRO for a few months and have loved it. I started having trouble with charging 3 weeks ago. It says on the battery symbol on the right side that it's at say 70% but the battery symbol that is on the left days 100% which is it? I still liked the phone until about a week ago. That's when I stopped getting 4G or any G fit that matter and I'm lucky to have more than 1 bar for signal. It's a clear sky so I can't blame the weather. What's going on ? I thought I needed to update the system so I tried and it says I'm up to date. So, now what can I do ?

It won't read any of the SD cards I put in it. It constantly disconnects from the network, which makes paying for unlimited data a waste of money. I will never buy another ZTE phone.

I bought one of these phones back in March of 2015, Florida.
Loved the size - had a holster to carry it on my hip...ppl pointed and said IS THAT A TABLET?
During the summer I ended up having trouble with it so I sent it back to ZTE...AND THAT wasn't easy by the way - they kept saying RETURN TO STORE.
Dude, I bought this at WALMART over 3 months ago. They have a 14 day return period.
They don't know JACK about "repairing" and they will say the same thing I know RETURN IT TO THE MANUFACTURER. If I could reach through a phone, I'd be on parole for assault.
OKAY, I sent it back. Waited. Waited. Wai...They sent it back "repaired"... In less than a month the things had MORE PROBLEMS than before!
I sent the "repaired" one back and said IF YOU "repair" THIS AND SEND IT BACK, IM GOING TO SEND IT BACK TO YOU WITH 3 BRICKS JUST TO ADD TO YOUR SHIPPING COST!
What they sent me, "worked" for a while but I was so burned on ZTE that I sent with another phone soon after.
Now they have AXON 7 and Im tempted but twice shy.

Don C., 09 Oct 2016Im not sure why I'm seeing a lot of reviews of the ZTE Zmax... moreBecause ALL the ZTE phones are terrible. I have the Pro and it has all the aforementioned issues PLUS it won't read a single card I put in it. I would recommend a $20 Straight. Talk LG before I'd recommend any ZTE phone. This company has a terrible reputation all the way 'round.

Don C., 09 Oct 2016Im not sure why I'm seeing a lot of reviews of the ZTE Zmax... moreHere's why its popular. Its like a drug dealer, "first time free", the phone will work pretty good. Once you have it one year Metro sends you a text "Time for an upgrade." Within 2 weeks of that text phone melts down. Cookies maybe, something. So u go to store spend more money on upgrade cause they got ya hooked on the phone. Big screen etc. You front camera won't work after the 14 month.

Im not sure why I'm seeing a lot of reviews of the ZTE Zmax Pro here. This is the area for the ZTE Zmax (Z970). I've had mine now for almost a year with very few problems, none of which were serious and all fixable. This is a great phone for the price I paid, $100. Of course this phone became very popular because of its quality and features so now it's selling for $140 to $180. If it such a piece of junk as some people are saying on here, please explain why this phone has become so popular. Every complaint I've read so far can and does happen even with the more expensive phones.

It appeared to be charging but the battery monitor seemed otherwise. All night plugged in but virtually zilch charge. Being a sudden problem, I tried a different cable. It recharged fully in an hour and works fine now. Likely a single wire that monitors charge rate was bad.
