Back in june, I bought a telstra tough max smart phone, I thought it would be perfect for me, fishing, prospecting etc.
It boasted long life battery, camera, gps/google maps water proof for 20mins, tuff screen, drop resistant etc.....
well it turns out that the phone is actually a chinese ZTE smart phone with a slightly tougher case.
in short, im extreamly dissapointed with this phone, and I would not recomend it to anyone.
it is the most unreliable P.O.S I have ever owned. The screen remains blank after charging, sometimes for a long time, hours, and you cant turn it off or on. If it rings, or you recieve a message, you cant answer it. If the alarm goes off, you cant stop it till the screen comes up.
OK, so I decide to send it back under warranty. No problem, we have to send it away, how long I ask, it could take a couple of months! The answer. Ok, can I get a loan phone?
If its a pre paid.....then no.
so I spend $460 on a phone, 3 months ago, and its usless, and to have it repaired, I need to buy another phone to use untill it comes back.....jeez thanks telstra.
