If you think that smartphones couldn’t get any cheaper now, ZTE is breaking the record for having the highest-specced smartphone for less than $100 or under the Php5k range.
This is the ZTE Zmax Pro, it’s the successor to the Zmax 2 from last year with modest upgrades. Starting with the 6-inch 1080p display and the Qualcomm Snapdragon 617 chipset paired with 2GB of RAM. Internal storage is relatively spacious at 32GB with expansion support via a microSD card. There’s USB Type-C port, which is ahead of its competition, and a fingerprint scanner on its back. A sizeable 3400mAh battery and Android 6.0 Marshmallow runs the show.

Razo says:
Hello! Any idea on where this device can be purchased in the Philippines?
the other says:
Dapat hindi nila tinipid yung quality ng baterya, storage at memory chips. Yung OS dapat Android 6.0.1 at least.
Ese says:
This phone is no where here in pinas available!
chief gato says:
mukhang hindi yan sub 5k kasi may 12% VAT sa pilipinas, ayon sa aking mababaw ba pananaliksik, 1$:60php ang conversion rate (tulad ng asus zenpad 32GB na ~200$ sa u.s., ~12k sa pilipinas)
Aki says:
Nice research you got there! Still cheap though, considering the specs.
tedz says:
