Are there any cases as of now for the Blade Max View?

Tongo · November 6, 2018 11:27AM

I was wondering when or where will cases be available if they are not already being made as I do plenty of walking and fear dropping my phone on the concrete with in the first week of owning it.

hollap · November 6, 2018 12:10PM

I believe there was another thread where @sshasan mentioned cases would become more available from 3rd party vendors in the next few weeks or so.

sshasan · November 6, 2018 12:35PM

@tongo... did you pick up a Blade Max View?

scan718 · November 14, 2018 10:20AM

picked up my Max View from B&H. so far so good actually just took off the screen protector that came on it but i'm scared i might scratch the screen. also waiting for a case and protectors to become available

ironbaybeedoll · November 16, 2018 12:16AM

I'd keep watch on Amazon. They seem to be one of the first to start popping up with new cases.

hunk · December 1, 2018 12:01PM

amazon starting to have some skins but no cases as of 12/01/2018
anyone have any luck yet

scan718 · December 1, 2018 4:35PM

here's a soft case for preorder, says Dec 20th. I'm gonna wait for a while till there are more options, especially with 2 day shipping

biggiefan · December 3, 2018 11:58PM

I was on Amazon the other day and they had some cases for the phone not a lot but they had some

Just a heads up. don't purchase this glass screen protector from Amazon. Received and returned it does not fit, too short.

Crap! I ordered that same screen protector yesterday. Supposed to be here tomorrow.

scan718 · December 5, 2018 4:14AM

maybe they sent me the wrong one, but i doubt it. I wonder if they actually check these things on the phone? Let me know if you got the right one.

textca · December 5, 2018 1:31PM

Really want the new view, I am on the zmax pro from 27 months back but without a case and glass screen protector its a wait for me.

Scan, you were right. It's way too small!

sshasan · December 6, 2018 2:02PM

Looks like this company is making a universal 16:9 aspect ratio screen protector for 6'' screens.

The Blade Max View just happens to have a slightly longer chin.

OH DANG. The wait continues...

I'd been told to look for accessories for the Blade Max Blue but, it looks like that phone has touch buttons at the bottom, under the screen that the Max View doesn't and, looks like speaker on the back that the View doesn't either. And, that case on Amazon.. if you look where the buttons are, it's got the power button on the other side instead of below the volume buttons. Well, I have 2 Blade Max View phones now and am afraid to switch from the Axon 7 Mini's that we're currently using. Those came with a tpu case in the box too.. and the new ones didn't. I am a little disappointed in ZTE on this. Calling support and them telling me to look for bits for the Max Blue has me bummed out now too.
BTW, the phone looks great and is really snappy in responding.. now if we could just get some accessories for it so it doesn't get all dinged up in the first couple of days use.. Frustrated. *sigh

scan718 · December 6, 2018 4:06PM

It sure would have been nice if they threw in a cheap plastic case. I definitely need a glass screen protector. They have saved my other phones screen alot of times. Better to buy another screen protector than a phone screen. And don't get me started on those cheap eBay replacement screens.

acg2002us · December 9, 2018 11:46AM

A quality case any day now would be great...

hunk · December 9, 2018 12:00PM

why is it taking so long for a case to come out for this phone, I have had my phone for weeks now, but have not even turned it on till I can get a case to protect it

scan718 · December 9, 2018 12:04PM

I'm starting to think maybe it has something to do with the issues ZTE was facing and there waiting to see if the phone sells enough. I'll be really upset if I don't get my Oreo update come Jan1st.

I previously purchased a belt hoster from Amazon for a ZTE Z958 and it works fine for my Z610DL.

Archibaldo · December 12, 2018 6:53AM

If it helps, soft cases for the Samsung Note 8 will fit the ZTE BLADE MAX VIEW perfectly. Of course the button cutout will be different but will actually fit and protect the blade MAX VIEW like a glove. I picked mine up at local Walmart for less than $5. Being a soft silicone case it does not press against or interfere with power/volume buttons. It's a good temporary fix until real cases become available.

Myhrddin · December 13, 2018 1:20PM

I'm still keeping an eye out for anyone to make decent accessories for this phone. I sent one phone back but, had opened one and am very frustrated that nobody is making anything but either sticker skin or a stick-on flip case that wouldn't protect corners even. When I got my Axon 7 mini there was none of this and plenty of decent things to not only protect but personalize to your liking. If ZTE would at least get one tpu case made for it.. then others would probably follow suit. I can't switch to this phone until I can actually protect it. The world isn't carpeted.

cyberdyne · December 16, 2018 10:12PM

I placed an order for a case on Amazon and it was cancelled a few hours after I was informed it had shipped and the case is now 'unavailable'

Btyhntr · December 17, 2018 4:18PM

I found some skins that may be helpful

Btyhntr · December 17, 2018 4:34PM

Amazon claims that this is a compatible holster
Vertical Teramo Premium Leather Case for Compatible w/ZTE Blade MAX View with Magnetic Flap, Fixed Heavy Duty 360° Non-Removable Swivel Clip

hunk · December 19, 2018 10:21AM

hunk · December 19, 2018 10:24AM

I see there are some new cases on amazon

Scan, I agree I have had mine since the beginning of November and have waited to use it as my daily phone due to waiting for the update and the lack of cases/screen protectors that actually fit. I have drove myself insane by checking up to 5 times a day for updates and cases, to no avail. I had such high hopes for this phone.
