ZTE Nubia 5s mini (Unlocked)

With a low price, sleek design, and LTE support, the ZTE Nubia 5s mini is an excellent unlocked Android smartphone, especially for those that long for a reasonably sized device.

Great price-to-feature ratio. Compact and well-built. 4G LTE connectivity. High-quality 720p LCD.

Clunky Android skin.

Cameras and Conclusions I'm going to give ZTE's marketing team a pass for its ill-conceived D-SLR comparisons. The 13-megapixel, rear-facing camera is actually quite capable, though it suffers from inconsistencies that turn out a lot of junky photos....

ZTE Nubia 5S Mini review: Fine performance, superb price, and a so-so camera.

While not the photography powerhouse it's cracked up to be, the ZTE Nubia 5S Mini is a great contract-free smartphone.

ZTE's attractive Nubia 5S Mini offers fairly speedy performance for a great price, and it's unlocked, too.

The Nubia 5S Mini is running on Android 4.3 Jelly Bean, and its cameras aren't all they're cracked up to be.

Smartphone photography buffs might be disappointed, but the ZTE Nubia Mini 5S is a capable, budget-friendly unlocked phone that should prove great for travel.

ZTE Nubia 5S Mini ( white)

But you won't find any bloatware, the performance is strong, and when it's available from Amazon on August 27, it'll cost a mere $280. That's all great. But while the phone makes for an attractive prospect, its cameras don't measure up.

ZTE Nubia 5S Mini review

The ZTE Nubia 5S Mini aims to burst into the USA with modest specs, an attractive price point and what they call a DSLR-like camera experience. Can it make it?

Solid build quality ; Gorgeous design ; Varsatile and powerful camera software ; Impressive battery life

Display lacks saturation ; More lag than expected ; Confusing launcher ; Good price, but too many good competitors

Great phone!

It works awesome. Best phone for its price. Haven't had any problems with it. Wicked fast. Nice and comfortable in the hands. Great display. Only thing is there isn't a wide variety of cases available for this phone.

Good but there issues...

This is a very nice phone and I had done my research before my purchase, I thought. I needed to use AT&T and this phone works with the exception I cannot get LTE even when in (supposedly) LTE areas. So my assumption is either AT&T is misleading of...

As good as iPhone 6, better than iPhone 5

Overall, it's equivalent to iPhone 6 to me. Mine was from Walmart.com and came with the white colored cover on backside. Front is black. Even tho the back is a plastic cover, it doesn't feel like plastic and definitely doesn't feel cheap. Under the...
