Wow! after 89 views finally a reply on the new warps.Big help these guys are on this site???I just seen the WARP Sequent this morning and checked back with this post.Looks look a nice phone.Bigger at 5inches, bigger processor,ICS seems like it would be sweet???
 
Was in bestbuy on the first. Noticed the the warp was on sale for 79 dollars. The sales Guy came over and said don't buy that phone, it's not any good. He said that every warp that he sells comes back to the store for a replacement. He then said that Zte is new to the cellphone business and reccommended that I buy a better phone.

I told him that ZTE sells more phones worldwide than apple. ZTE is the fourth largest cellphone manufacturer in the world. I told him that I have had a warp for over a year and it works great with a custom (I am using the latest n00b) rom.

Well, lets see. The warp forums are probably one of the best communitys. Thay being said the warp sequent is not new. Its been avail for several months. Had you bothered to google it or read the several posts on it you would notice. Its the same size screen. Same processor but clocked to 1.4 ghz and slightly more ram. In my opinion its not better. The og warp can easily oc to 1.8ghz and since we have what? Like a dozen roms? Several kernals and a great bunch of devs. Our oerformance on the og warp is significantly better. Until they have a better comunity and more devs. Ill put up my warp against the sequent anyday. Btw they just achived root and have there first rom. But im still keeping my og warp. Long answer short. Pls do a search, in the end it will give you answers faster.

I like my WARP too! After the coming to this forum, and with the help of great minds and development here the phone is GOOD. However, I wouldn't consider ZTE a good product yet. They have ways to go in quality and development.

As for Sales I'm not sure where you get your numbers, but ZTE has not sold more phones than Apple and are not yet #4. I think they are getting close. See below. Even if they doubled their numbers in 2012, they still won't catch up to Apple, so it will probably take another year for them to pass Apple.

2010

  • Nokia: 463 million sold
  • Samsung: 282 million sold
  • LG: 117 million sold
  • RIM 48 million sold
  • Sony Ericsson: 42 million sold
  • Apple: 42 million sold
  • Motorola: 39 million sold
  • Sharp: ? million sold
  • Alcatel: 33 million sold
  • ZTE: 30 million sold
  • HTC: 25 million sold
  • Huawei: 24 million sold
  • Others: 485 million sold
2011

  • Nokia: 622 million sold
  • Samsung: 314 million sold
  • Apple: 89 million sold
  • LG: 86 million sold
  • ZTE: 57 million sold
  • RIM: 52 million sold
  • HTC: 48 million sold
  • Motorola: 40 million sold
  • Huawei: 41 million sold
  • Sony Ericsson: 33 million sold
  • Others: 597 million sold
2012

  • Samsung 420 million
  • Nokia 368 million
  • Apple 125 million
 
A web search will give you lots of sources that indicate that ZTE is the 4th largest cellphone manufacture in the world.

Here is one:

I ain't saying that this is a good thing. Just repeating what I have read. Personally I would much prefer that we had more US manufactures.

I am old enough to remember when the US led the would in manufacturing. We have outsourced most of our manufacturing. :(

Thanks for the link!!

I just read the article, and it said for the "3rd quarter" ZTE became the 4th largest in terms of units shipped, shipping 7.5 million "smartphones". The way it was phrased is very misleading. Think about it? No doubt they are growing very fast..... but with only 7.5 million units that means they shipped less than that the previous quarter since we know sales of smartphones keep going up each quarter. So, annually, they are not even close to Apple yet, and have a long way to go catch the likes of Samsung.

Also in the article.. QUOTE: "ZTE smartphone shipments for the full year of 2011 were more than 15 million, an increase of 400% over 2010, making ZTE the fastest growing smartphone maker after Apple."

400% seems high in itself, but we are talking only 15 million phones (I'm assuming smartphones since my other post shows they had 57 million sold in 2011)
