A very good phone for the price

Now I have a bad habit of buying a lot of phones at times and never sticking to just one. lol. But every phone is different. And while a lot of people are super judgmental and shallow and love to trash talk a budget phone and never give the ultra budget phones a chance because of the low processing power and other factors, I decided to give the ZTE Blade Vantage a chance. I also use the Moto E4 Plus. Yes I know why would I buy a cheap ZTE phone if I have the more equipped Moto phone? Well I wanted a back up phone. ANYWAYS I'm very surprised by this device. QUICK NOTE: THE ZTE BLADE VANTAGE HAVE AN LED NOTIFICATION LIGHT. Its not at the bottom of the phone where the Circle to go back to the main screen is. No its to the very top right hand corner of the phone. As soon as you go to charge it for the first time a little light at the top is green for charging pops up. Its hidden you cant see it. I did NOT expect that. SUPER awesome. It comes with 16GB of memory. About 8.33GB left to the user. It has a 854x480 resolution screen. So its a 480p screen. Obviously not amazing but its cheap but its decent for those who don't care bout resolution. Gotta keep the price down somehow. It has a 1.1ghz quad core Snapdragon 210 processor. I know its 2018 and the 210 processor is still around. Well not everyone needs a super power phone. Perfect for a kid or older person. The phone runs really good. very little lag to my surprise. No random shut offs or any issues. It also comes with a 2,520mAh battery which lasted me a long time due to the low resolution screen. It does also come with android 7.1.1 which is amazing for a cheap device.It does have 2GB of ram. The phone is actually pretty good. It has a 8MP rear cam with flash and can do up to 720p video recording. 2MP front cam with 720p recording also. The pictures from the rear 8MP turned out really nice. I was very impressed. I was expecting absolutely bad quality since its so cheap. But in my experience I love the quality. Some people may be more picky and say the pictures are horrible. Every person is different. The video quality seems ok but for a cheap phone I wouldn't expect anything special or amazing. I tried live chatting on facebook and the phone did pretty well for the 2MP camera. Also as for call quality? Wow this SHOCKED me. Normally cheap phones have the worst call quality. Whether muffled or far away or too tinny or whatever. Multiple people told me all the same thing, I sounded clearer and better on the ZTE Blade Vantage than the more expensive Moto E4 Plus. Shocking right? They said the Moto E4 Plus I sound very muffled at times and hard to hear. As soon I called with the new ZTE phone they said it was a MUCH better experience. For me anyways. Oh and it doesn't show it in the phones settings but the Blade Vantage DOES have HD Voice and WOW the clarity is amazing. I loved it. ALMOST used it for a daily driver but because of the display I went to my Samsung Galaxy J3 Mission phone. Told you I had a lot of phones lol. Anyways the phone also has 2.4GHZ wifi and the wifi works excellent no problems. NO BLOATWARE except for the usual Verizon apps. But that's it. Def worth the price tag. Anyways I did a little video on the phone on youtube. My channel is GTX4790. Its only one video so my channel prob wont show up in the search results. Just type in Verizon Prepaid ZTE Blade Vantage. Either scroll down until you see GTX4790 (it has a NVIDIA picture) OR click on filter and click on This week and you should see it. Hope this review helps.

The phone and card work great! Too bad I can't say that for best buy. Had to call customer service because best buy sent me a locked phone, thankfully the guy on the phone knew what he was doing , got the phone unlocked and activated the same day.
