Summary

Title speaks for itself.

You know the real problem here? The design of this device. How are you supposed to "use" it? Laying on a table? Nope.. it's round on all sides: front, back, top and bottom: it keeps rocking about. A wobbly paperweight with poor reception.

So you need a cradle or dock, which is not provided. You start designing and think you could use some sort of symmetrical design.. but nope! The front and back sides have a different shape too! Gotta love designer's sense of humor.

And just when you think that the only sensible position is with the cable going down and all the buttons on top, only at that moment, is when you realize the icons/text on the black bezel are flipped.

Who designed this thing!?

Anyway, here's a dock for you. It's all rounded & fancy, just like the thing. Fits like a glove, and I hate it. The "ZTE" text is to remind you of the correct direction for docking. And get another USB charging cable while you're printing this, since the one provided is ~10cm long.

I was planning to make some pins for a snap-fit, but I was lazy. The cradle and legs are printed without supports, but need to be glued together.

Enjoy!
