Reviews for the ZTE Blade A2 Plus

It’s definitely not a good all-rounder as Xiaomi’s offering so if you do manage to snag one, we still recommend it over the ZTE. Alternately, you can even look at the Asus ZenFone 3S Max (Review), which we recently tested and found it to be a pretty good smartphone for the price.

The ZTE Blade A2 Plus is an average phone that fails to impress in terms of camera performance. The UI on the device is definitely not the best we have seen on phones and needs a major revamp. Although the price tag of Rs. 11,999 looks decent, the phone falls short to justify it. However, one area where the Blade A2 Plus scores is the battery performance and I am not sure how many customers would go for the device only because of the large 5000mAh battery. It is available exclusively from Flipkart. Check out this list if you are looking for smartphones with long battery life.

The problem with many budget smartphone these days is that it struggles with battery life. But what if I told you that there is a $179 smartphone that could easily last for two days? Well, if you're interested, then the ZTE Blade A2 Plus is probably the best budget smartphone that you are looking for.

For the initial verdict, apart from the 5000 mAh battery, ZTE Blade A2 Plus plays it too safe to move the market. We already have smartphones with enough battery life, better processor, better camera and with a similar design. Priced at Rs 11,999, the Blade A2 Plus will find it hard to stand out in the crowd.

ZTE Blade A2 Plus is a strictly average smartphone by the company. But despite the decent attempt at going with tried and tested way with a good battery life, there is no way that I would recommend this smartphone to people despite the decent price point of Rs 11,999. There are much better smartphones in the market at the same price point offering a much better value for money. The best option right now for budget buyers should be the Xiaomi Redmi Note 4. In fact, the Xiaomi Redmi 3S Prime also outperforms ZTE Blade A2 Plus in performance. Other options that you may look at is Moto G4 Plus which is priced a little higher.

It is a very small display format for smartphones. You should by no means be mis-sighted and you will generally see very little on the screen and only have a small resolution available. In return, the device should be very small and handy.
