I am very happy with this new ZTE SPEED for Boost Mobile. It has a 4.5" screen with a good picture quality, a front camera and rear camera with flash, and it is a 4G LTE phone.

The ZTE Speed offers solid performance at an extremely affordable price. The phone itself has a nice quality feel and finish. The form factor is a perfect compromise between phones that are unwieldy or minuscule. The 4.5" display delivers vibrant colors, but the images tend to wash out when viewed from wide landscape angles. This can be a problem if you're watching a video with a friend. Overall, I'm very pleased with the phone as it delivers a smooth experience at a great price.

This phone is a ridiculously good deal. I bought this for 40 dollars. That's cheap - cheap for any android phone. Don't expect it to be a galaxy S-500 or whatever! It works well. The charging port is plagued with inconsistent connections like the previous ZTE phone I owned two of. I think this is a design weakness with ZTE. It is relatively slow loading the screens and the RAM fills up quick compared to 600 dollar phones of course. It's a 40 dollar phone and seriously awesome for that cheap price. Can't complain. It will do anything you need an android phone to do at a burner price and it has a very good camera. There's nothing to b***ch about with the phone at that price point. Like you get an Audi for Ford price - no.

The ZTE Speed phone is a good, solid phone available for a great price that does everything you need for a fraction of the cost of other phones. The display is clear, the screen size is very adequate, it is fast, responsive, and call quality is good. Love that it has both front and rear facing cameras. The phone charges fairly quickly and battery life is pretty good as well. Works great as a hotspot for me as well.

This phone is really good. I've had every Boost Mobile phone Best Buy has to offer. Every. Single. One. And this is definitely in competition with the higher end phones, which is astounding. No physical problems except for having a battery that can't be removed, very few bugs which is extremely surprising due to the value of the phone, the camera isn't horrible, the operating system is smooth and doesn't seem to slow down and bug out like most other cheap Boost Mobile phones have, even without cleaning the memory once in a month. This phone is a gem and I'm very glad I found it. I won't be giving it up until I upgrade to a higher end phone again.

Perhaps this phone would not satisfy a techie, but it does everything I need it to do. It is so far superior to the Samsung Replenish it replaced, especially with battery life and antenna sensitivity. Fairly intuitive to use. For $39, it is hard to beat.

I purchased this phone as a temporary replacement until my phone return from being repaired. I'm used to high end phones so I was surprised to see that this phone had a lot of the same features, was very easy to use and still had good quality. It is a great value for what you get at $40 when I purchased it. The camera did well too. Not good for motion shot just stills, but took good shots. Overall, I will be glad to have it if something ever happens to my everyday phone
A:Yes, you can use this phone without activating or adding minutes. When you first power it on to use it, make sure you are where you can access a wifi connection. You will have to navigate through numerous screens to get past the activation stuff. You can use the phone for wifi things such as web browsing, email, Google Play apps, etc. There is a lot of Boost Mobile bloatware on this phone - and you won't be able to use the Boost specific apps without activating and being in service. And obviously, you won't be able to make phone calls or send SMS messages.
A:It can really can all depend upon what all you have running in the background..
I usually have the GPS off and Wifi Off unless at home. Also turning off the Data network save you some battery life.I can usually go about two days on a battery charge. So it seems to be pretty good to me..
Also I am not on the phone 24/ 7 so I hope that helps..
A:Of course. If you wanted you could just use this phone if you had a WiFi connection for internet purposes. But without WiFi don't expect to get any use out of it without getting service.
A:Sort of. For cellular calls, no. However, it will work for wifi/voip calling features such as skype or google hangouts (or other wifi calling software apps). You would then have to be near a wifi connection.
If you opt for this, enable plane mode to keep the phone from asking for account info.
