Phones you've had on Metro

Started with a Windows 6.5

Lg can't remember which smart phone it was. I have it around here somewhere.

Lg Esteem did a lot with that phone. Started learning to make themes with it.

Galaxy s3 had that thing for a long time. Shattered the screen. After that jumped to T-Mobile bought a note 3.

Note 3

Nokia Lumina 640 not a fan of Windows phones.

Lg g stylo just bought it. Debating on rooting and stuff.

Wondering what your thoughts are between the ZTE Zmax and LG G Stylo since you have both, overall which do you personally like better?

I'll chime In on this since I've had both and you needed help. Zmax is good. Good screen great battery life comes with Dolby if you like good sound. I did have a screen yellowing issue for some reason. Still a good phone. Stylo clear screen IMO. Great battery life as well I'm getting 5-7:30 hours of screen on time. Good sound I use bass booster pro. So far no issues though. Let me know if you have any more questions. I hope this helps.

Thanks Anthony, I currently have a Zmax, I've had it since April and overall I like it. My son wants a Zmax so I was considering just giving him my Zmax and getting myself a Stylo, so that's why I am trying to figure out which phone overall is better. That will determine if I keep my Zmax and just buy him one, or if I'll give him mine and get a Stylo.

I understand I prefer my stylo, but that's just my option. Perhaps this video will help you more than I can
it's just a comparison between them. Also will help you see the similarities and differences. You can also go to a local store and see the stylo. Also if you're on metro pcs you can't buy the zmax anymore from them. You'd have to buy it elsewhere. I hope this helps. Any other questions just ask.

I owned both.
Pretty much same stats hardware wise. But I didnt like the Zmax screen. It seems dull and non-vibrant.
Other then that, good budget phablet. I believe even back then, it was only 100 with number port.
My GF has a Stylo now.
Im an LG fan. I like their UI, and the screen just seems brighter and more colorful.

Did the Zmax ever get past KitKat? With Google not supporting a phone for as long, I wouldnt buy a Kitkat only phone now.
