As a globally-leading provider of telecommunications equipment, ZTE has become the world’s fourth-largest handset maker, and it continuously offers stylish and intelligent devices for consumers around the world. To meet the requirement of production and development, ZTE has founded eighteen R & D facilities in USA, France, Sweden, India, China, etc. It's natural and right that ZTE mobile phone is getting more and more popular on a global scale, meanwhile, some models that use Android OS are top-selling gadgets, like ZTE Grand S, N909, N5, and so on.

Why Do We Need an Assistant to Help Backup Contacts & SMS?

Although ZTE smart phone keeps getting more functional and powerful, we also need some third-party softwares to help enhance the user experience. For example, as you know that contacts and text messages are usually saved on the internal memory, for the sake of ensuring user privacy, they are forbidden to be copied to other devices directly. If you want to read them on computer or keep a backup file, you have to turn to an assistant program for help.

Firstly, it's not a stretch to say that many mobile phone users have suffered from losing data from their device due to various factors and incidents, such as wrong operations, breaking mobile phone, getting device stolen, and so on. But if we had backed up them before, we would be able to completely restore them to our cell phone with the backup file. In addition, sometimes we need to save contacts or text messages to computer and then take them for other usages.
