Slowly but surely, ZTE has been stepping-up its efforts to bring its smartphones to the US. This summer we’ve seen it go after American shoppers with phones like the Grand S Pro, and today we learn of its latest efforts to make headway on the nation’s phone market, revealing plans for the start of unlocked US sales of the Nubia 5S Mini LTE.If that name rings a bell, there’s a good reason for that, as this is a phone we’ve heard about before… a long time ago. At least, without ...

Is ZTE falling into the same trap as its competition once did?

Posted on February 27, 2014 by Taylor Martin

If you asked me last year if I would have ever considered using a ZTE smartphone as my daily driver, I probably would have chuckled, realized you might actually be serious, then answered with a solid, “No.” It’s not that ZTE is a bad manufacturer.

Posted on January 11, 2014 by Michael Fisher

That’s just a partial list of the challenges faced by the four-man three-man Pocketnow team at 2014′s International CES in Vegas, easily one of the most difficult trade shows we’ve ever done. But while the road was rough, the payoff was (mostly) worth it: in exchange for our hardships, we were among the first to spend time with some of the world’s newest and hottest mobile gadgetry, and we did the best we could to ...

ZTE reveals CES spread: phones, phablets, and a smartwatch

Posted on January 3, 2014 by Stephen Schenck

ZTE is one of those manufacturers that sees quite strong sales on a global level, but fails to really assert itself in our minds as a smartphone heavyweight. Still, we’ve been paying more attention to it lately, going hands-on with the Nubia 5, and hearing about some of the rumored next steps for the company, like its own smartwatch. With CES at the front of everyone’s minds, companies are getting early starts on announcing their new ...
