Reviews for the ZTE Blade X Max

80% ZTE Blade X Max
Source: PC Mag English Archive.org version
For $150, the ZTE Blade X Max offers great value for the price. You get solid overall performance, a big, bright 1080p screen, the latest Android software, and a fingerprint sensor. We like it just a smidge more than the Max 2, but if you really want dual-band Wi-Fi or a slightly faster processor, that phone remains a strong option. The LG Stylo 3 is another alternative worth considering if you like to take a lot of notes, thanks to its useful built-in stylus, but it costs $20 more and has a lower-resolution display. That makes the ZTE Blade X Max your best overall bet, and our Editors' Choice on Cricket.

Qualcomm Adreno 505: Mid range graphics card integrated in the Snapdragon 430 and 435 SoCs. Based on the 500 generation and supports modern standards like Vulkan 1.0, OpenGL ES 3.1 + AE, OpenCL 2.0 and DirectX 12.

Only some 3D games with very low demands are playable with these cards.

» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.


435: Lower mainstream octa-core ARM Cortex-A53 SoC clocked at up to 1.4 GHz and the Adreno 505 GPU, a DDR3L-1600 memory controller as well as an X9 LTE (Cat. 7) modem. » Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.


6.00":

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.

ZTE:

ZTE is short for Zhong Xing Telecommunication Equipment Company Limited, which was founded in China in 1985 and is partly state-owned. ZTE's core business is wireless, optical transmission, data transmission equipment, telecommunications software and cell phones, USB sticks, routers and tablets.


80%: This rating is not earth-shattering. This rating must actually be seen as average, since there are about as many devices with worse ratings as better ones. A purchase recommendation can only be seen with a lot of goodwill, unless it is about websites that generally rate strictly.
