This is a great phone for $200!
The pros are that, 1) It's a beautiful phone. It's very well built. 2) The sound is amazing!! 3) It has all the features-usb type c, amoled screen, metal construction, decent camera, NFC, etc..
But the cons are, 1) the battery is not the greatest
That's about it. It's the perfect size, with a big screen that still fits in your pocket. It is plenty fast. I haven't noticed any lag. Even with the small battery, it charges pretty fast.
Overall, if you're looking for a budget phone, this is it. I always heavily research, before I buy anything, and this phone came out on top. My seconds were the moto g5 and the Nokia 6. The only reason I counted out the Huawei was because they're screens are so prone to scratching: honor 5,6, and 8. The moto g5 is awesome, but it is ugly. Why does it say moto on the front. It makes it look super budget. And the Nokia 6 is too slow, with a 417 or so chipset.
By the way, I'm not a heavy phone user. But watching a 2hr documentary, playing a lot of music, and making some long calls, lasted me all day, with 25% battery remaining. And it'll charge back up in an hour. Not bad for me.
All in all, if you're not a heavy phone user (plenty fast and charges fast) , and not a professional photographer (still a decent camera), this phone is awesome! For $200, you can't beat it.
Update: Sept 2nd. I love this phone!! No screen protector-not one scratch. Corning gorilla glass 4 is amazing. Beautiful screen. My friends with galaxy 6's and 7's and iPhones tell me all the time the screen is really nice.
You can't beat the sound. Seriously, so amazing! I haven't heard a better sounding phone.
When I use my phone heavily (I've become somewhat of a heavy phone user) it still lasts all day. It also has an ultra power saving mode. Basically you can text and talk, but Wi-Fi and data are off. The screen also goes black and white. The battery once lasted me 4 days in this setting. It may have lasted longer. You can turn this on when youre not using your phone and it will last a long time.
USB type c connector is so nice. Micro USB sucks in comparison. It fits snug. I've broken several micro USB charging ports. This one is not going to break. It also charges so fast. 1.5 hrs Max for full charge.
This phone is plenty fast. I trade stocks on it all the time. I have 20 plus apps open on it, and it still is plenty fast.
The camera and video are good to me. Maybe not up there with the $800 phones, but so what. I've shot a lot of video in the past, and this phone is plenty good. If I'm trying to shoot a short film, I'm gonna want something better than the galaxies and iPhones anyways.
All in all, after using this phone I would definitely recommend it. $200 unlocked-amazing!

Its ok for the cost
It's OK. It's a smaller and more basic version of the ZTE zmax pro which is what I had before which was what I wanted. However I was not expecting it to come equipped with the same overheating and finicky issues (apps will download but won't run, and almost every app does "unfortunately "insert app here" has stopped")p as the zmax pro did but it does. Also the battery power is disappointing, I've had the phone for almost two weeks and if I want it to last me an entire 8 hour shift at work I have to put it on ultra power save mode (phone and text only w black and white screen).Again I love the brand and style but they need to work out bugs. I haven't decided if Im annoyed enough to send it back yet but I was allowed to purchase insurance for it so if I do I'll be covered.(included photo occurred as I was writing this)

Buen celular.

Reviewed in Mexico on April 17, 2017
ZTE en mi opinión ha dado un paso de gigante en el diseño de este aparato, estamos hablando de un celular de 5'5", tiene unas dimensiones de 15'1 x 7'5 x 0'79 cm aproximadamente, con un peso de 178 gramos, como veis queda muy por debajo de 1 cm de grosor, deciros que no es incomodo tener el celular en la mano, es más; cuando lo vi por primera vez no me parecía que fuese un terminal de 5'5", lo tuve que poner al lado de un Samsung S5 para comparar las dimensiones, entonces si vi que era más grande que el Galaxy.
A la hora de su diseño me ha gustado claramente su cuerpo metálico que le dan un toque de distinción, pero cuando lo miras frontalmente ves por encima de todo las ranuras de los altavoces, uno en su parte superior y otro en la inferior por debajo de los botones táctiles de control que son físico, no virtuales y que están situados fuera del marco de la pantalla.
Hablando de la pantalla, puedo decir que aunque su apariencia es de fragilidad, ésta esta protegida por la capa Corning Gorilla Glass 4, que lo protegerá de arañazos fortuitos, pero si lo deseas tu puedes adquirir un cristal templado para protegerla aún más, ya que no viene ninguno en la caja.
Además de todo lo que os he comentado la parte delantera tiene alojado la cámara frontal de 8 mpx y un pequeño led para las notificaciones.
En el lateral izquierdo el Axon 7 no posee ningún botón solo está la bandeja extraíble donde alojaremos las Sim y la micro SD, los botones están alojados en la derecha donde nos encontramos el botón de volumen y el de apagado/bloqueo.
Si seguimos mirando alrededor de los bordes del móvil, veremos en su parte superior el orificio para los auriculares, y en la parte inferior el puerto USB tipo-C, decir que en el interior de la caja viene un adaptador para seguir utilizando uno de nuestros cables microUSB.
En la parte trasera lleva la cámara principal de 20 mpx, el lector de huellas, y un pequeño flash.
Después de haberle echado un vistazo por su parte exterior vamos a introducirnos en en la tripas de este magnifico terminal de ZTE, ya que nos sorprenderá su hardware.
Estas son las características más sorprendentes bajo mi punto de vista, y que hacen de este celular un candidato a ser unos de los mejores del mercado en 2016.
Terminal unibody.
Procesador Snapdragon 820

Memoria RAM 4 GB

Y puedes introducir una micro SD de hasta 128 Gb.
El Sistema Operativo es Android 6.0.1, con una capa de personalización de ZTE que hace más atractivo su interface, el nombre de ésta es MiFavor 4.0.
Las cámara trasera puede tirar una fotos de hasta 20 mpx y grabar vídeos en 4K, debo decir que las imágenes son magnificas.
Otro punto en el que destaca de sobremanera es en el sonido, con su sistema DOLBY ATMOS.
¿Qué es Dolby Atmos?
Dolby Atmos es una tecnología de sonido que destaca por ser el primer sistema híbrido de sonido envolvente, en la que se entremezclan los canales clásicos del sonido (5.1, 7.1 o 9.1), denominados 'Beds' 'encargados de generar el ambiente inmersivo que todos conocemos hasta ahora', junto con objetos de sonido dinámicos conocidos como 'objects'.
La batería es buena, puede incluso durar un día y medio con bastante uso, ésta es de 3140 mAh, y no podrás acceder a ella para retirarla.
En el aspecto de la conectividad, el Axon 7 es un extraordinario terminal, sin lugar a duda posee los mayores avances de este tipo.
Después de todo lo dicho mi experiencia con este termina ha sido super positiva, en mi casa mis dos hijos tienen iPhone 6s, y os puedo afirmar que el ZTE es mejor terminal que el celular de la manzana mordida, y en relación calidad/precio, lo supera con creces.
El único inconveniente que veo es que cada semana lo reinicio, ya que tengo la sensación de que este terminal se ralentiza.
