We’ve been receiving reports that customers who went to the ZTE Mobile Sale today have been enraged over limited stock availability and reservations, things that ZTE promised that would be addressed in today’s promo.
ZTE Mobile kiosks were flooded with long queue of lines and mobs of people as early as mall opening hours with customers hoping to get a hold of the hugely discounted Grand X2 L phablet that would start at 2:00 pm.
Reader James de Guzman sent us an image with a comment, “Crazy line here as early as 10am for the ZTE phone on sale.”
Reader Jay Agonoy also noticed that the kiosk wasn’t prepared for the huge number of people lining up for the fire sale. “Here at the #ZTEGrand sale at Lucky Gold Plaza Pasig. Seems to me that the ZTE Mobile concept store here is not prepared, and from what I understand, they are pointing fingers to the marketing who spread the info that 50-100 units will be sold whereas this store only has an estimated 25-30 units available at the moment. Also, [there are] those who are cutting in the queue.“
Customers who went to the sale today were not appeased with what had transpired, complaining on comments and walls on their Facebook page about limited stock availability, queue cutting, and product reservations citing that they were only informed about the limited time for purchase.

ZTE has released a statement earlier, noting that they only have limited stocks available as much as they would want to accommodate all their customers who lined up to get the phone.

This is a far cry from their post yesterday, announcing sufficient stocks and backup in case of shortages. See screenshot below.
While limited stocks may seem to be the case in most areas on kiosks over the metro, the Chinese mobile giant should have adhered to their word yesterday, promising sufficient stocks, a better queue management, proper time start, and a sale without any reservations for the phone available for purchase today.
We’ve also been receiving reports from our readers that the Grand X2 (V967S) will go on sale this Thursday at all ZTE Kiosks for Php999. Hopefully things would go smoothly this time.
