Hello,
today I want to introduce the new smartphone from ZTE.
It's the ZTE Blade S6.
The main specs are a 5inch 720p Display, 2gb Ram and 16gb Rom and the storage is expandable. It is a DualSim phone (Nano simcard) with DualStandby and supports 4G LTE, too.
It comes with the brand new Snapdragon 615 (MSM8939) octacore processor clocked at 1,5GHz and the 64bit technology.
As you can see on the pictures below it is very thin with only 7,7mm and has small bezels around the screen. The back of the phone looks similar to the iPhone 6 with a 13mpx shooter from Sony (IMX214), a led flash, the ZTE branding and the loudspeaker. On the right side there is the volume rocker and the power button. On the other side are the sim trays and the place where you can put the micro SD-card inside. The USB-charging port is on the bottom and the 3,5mm headphone jack on top of the phone.
The overall look is very clean with round edges and handy sizes.
On the front of the phone you can see the 5inch HD Display and a blue homebutton you maybe already know from other ZTE devices like the Nubia Z5S, Z7 or ZTE V5. The front camera has 5mpx and should be perfect for some selfies.
The phone also supports some Smart Sense, which lets you launch apps like the music player or flashlight with gestures like flicking your wrist.
Very special is that the ZTE Blade S6 comes with Android 5.0 Lollipop and ZTE's own MiFavor 3.0 UI. The Google PlayStore is pre installed and it supports multilanguage. You can order the phone in two colors (silver, matte pink).
mod edit: Advertising for 3rd party vendors is against XDA rules
ZTE Blade S6 Specification Overview:

Please check out the attached pictures of the ZTE Blade S6 in both colors silver and matte pink.
I will get one phone in the next 1-2 weeks and then I will write a full review of this phone, so stay tuned.
Update: Gearbest has sent me a new coupon code that I would like to share with you.
Code: ZTES6JY
-> Blade S6 costs 214,99$ with shipping from Germany. So it is very interesting for the customers from Europe because they don't have to pay taxes.
Iphone Look Alike
Looks Like iPhone.Well, after sales support is my only concern .
I really like the design, too and the specs look very nice. The Snapdragon 615 should have enough power and an HD screen is enough for 5inch. I hope that the battery will last a whole day or even a bit more.
I don't have any experience with after sale support, so I can't tell you something about it but ZTE is a nig brand and so I think there won't be any production issues.
looking at the frequency this phone should work on the rogers network in canada right? Is it unlocked from the factory?
Yes, it comes definately unlocked but please check the network used by rogers by your own. I'm not an expert and don't want to say something wrong.
I have updated Post 1#.
From today on the phone will be sent out and I hope that I will receive my phone next week.
I'm also waiting for Blade S6...I payed it 263usd but today you can get it for 249 on AliExpress... if there is any root guide, please share...
As posted above you can get it with an coupon code from gearbest for 234$, which I think is a good price for a Snapdragon phone from a big brand.
They dont sell to north america in this sale..
I thought they would sell worldwide.

Now is Chinese New Year and probably they will ship after New Year, I am still waiting for shipment details also
@naruto42 I get my phone from gearbest. The shop link is in post 1. My Blade S6 is at the moment stuck at the customer center in Germany. I hope that I will receive it this week.
I already got mine here in germany! Any ideas for gaining root?
Have you tried Framaroot?
yes, unfortunately its not working.
Tried: Framaroot, SRSRoot, Saferoot, iRoot, OneClickRoot, Eroot, Root Kit.
OneClickRoot submitted some data, maybe they can work something out?!
I will try to root it if I receive my phone. I have googled for ZTE Blade S6 root and the result was an instruction to Eroot.

Well to be honest dont buy this try zuk z1 or z2.This phone has lot of bugs till date.Heating,screen burn etc.Never heard zuk z1 problem as my frnd uses it.Zuk is a good phone.
Thanks bro i will consider this
Xiaomi Redminote 3 Pro , snapdragon processor and lot of custom roms.
Unfortunately, having used the Moto g4 plus for a month, I'll have to agree to the posts above.
And if the frequent bugs wasn't bad enough, the phone has some serious heating and ghost touch issues, with some even reporting screen burn (which is particularly bad considering moto g4 was launched in May, so the screen burn had to happen between then and now).
Plus, if that weren't enough, there's the after sales service and tech support, if only, to add insult to injury. Post - buyout by Lenovo, Motorola mobility's once lauded support has nosedived to being equivalent of squabbling with an eBay seller 'specializing' in cheap knockoffs.
I got no heating issues, no lag, no screen burn in (didn't take the latest update) and consistently 7 hours of screen on time per charge.
I can't believe I almost spent 800 euros on the s7 edge, while the 250 that the g4 cost me give me anything I need and more.
I don't play games. If you play games, don't go for this processor.
Moto (owned by Lenovo) has the worst service centers
If your phone got damaged two days after the purchase, you've to call amazon for return and they will tell you to arrange a dead-on-arrival certificate. When you go to the service center for DOA, they will tell you they can't do that for Amazon. When you tell this to the Amazon they'll tell you they are helpless without DOA. Pure case of cheating.
And also the newer phones coming from Amazon are manufactured in Tamilnadu, India, which has the worst build quality and a yellowish screen.
Both are on my experience. My 3 days old phone is at the service center as the finger print and network stopped working.
Thanks guys for ur reply
Hello
Today my moto x pure dead ....?
I want your help to choose between oneplus 3t and axon 7 6GB 128GB version
Where can i buy zte phones online i didnt find 6gb version on amazon.com
And should i buy unlocked version right ? I live in saudi arabia
Is this phone better than oneplus 3t
Is the OS come with bloatware??
Plz help me
You can only buy the 6gb "enhanced" version directly from ZTE, from my understanding. Make sure the wireless bands are compatible with your country.
The Oneplus 3T and Axon 7 are very similar in specs. Axon 7 has much better audio, slightly better screen, and SD card support. The 3T has a better software development community if you enjoy custom ROMs. I'd say those are the main differences.

Thanx but zteusa.com told me they stop selling axon 7 enhanced version ...they making new device and it will be rady this summer ...what should i do now ...wait or go to oneplus 3t ?
Any reason you have to have the enhanced version? The standard Axon 7 supports up to 128gb micro SD. You won't notice a difference between 4gb and 6gb or RAM as no app uses that much memory. You'll be pushing it to use up 2gb or RAM.
Personally I'd find a good deal on a Axon 7 or wait for the new phones to be announced in the coming months and go from there. I'm not sure how quickly you need a new phone.

You don't really need the 6gb. The OP3 was rumored not to use those extra 2GB and no one noticed for a long time. The SD821 is pretty much the same as the SD820 that the Axon packs, taking thermal throttling into consideration. And you can use SD cards, true too.
If the new device they were talking about is the axon Max thing you probably should not wait, unless you don't care much about how the thing looks...
The reason why i want enhanced version that i dont want to buy new phone every year ..atleast 2-3 years
And if my moto didnt dead accidently i will not change it until next year
So that i want the powerfull phone with good price
Actually i need SD card option very much ..beacause of this feature in moto x i didnt loose my files when my phone dead and i restore every thing to my temporary phone also phone sound on moto x pure is very good as it had 2 stereo speakers..and i think the zte also have good speaker too
6GB of ram its for future .. as u see all apps now growing and eat too much memory like snapchat and facebookand also im using my phone to record youtube video and edit it then uplode it to my channel
If u have link to enhanced version i will be appreciate...i didnt buy from ebay before as i dont trust seller thair so if u found good deals on ebay or other site plz post the link here
Thank you Guys
6 gb of RAM îs only for market sales only. Not for a few years from now 6 gb will not be used.
There îs not a single software țo ușe 6 gb beside benchmark software

I understand your worries and concerns, but trust me they are unfounded. The only reason why android phones went to 4GB was for 64 bit capabilities. 6GB of RAM is completely uncalled for, as shown by Samsung when they only put 4GB of RAM in the new S8 (After the Note 7 flop they were not about to hold anything back in an attempt to show it's fan base that Samsung is still good). Don't worry about it, just buy the Axon 7. You will not regret it. 4GB of RAM is plenty, and that won't change anytime soon.
Thank you guys i think i will go with your advise☺
Did this version ok for me

Greeting All,
I have a Huawei P10 Plus (VKY-L09) that now needs to be replaced with a new board.
I just would like to know if it is possible to replace the VKY-L09 board with the VKY-L29 board which is much more cheaper.
If yes, will this be a straight forward replacement or would they need to replace any other smaller parts too?
If not, why not?
Thanks and regards
