Ever since Android 4.0 ICS came about, we have all had a way in which we could take a screenshot on ZTE devices suing a hardware key combination. That same method is available still today. Most people prefer to use that hardware key method. The rest prefers to use applications from the Google Play Store. With apps, you can change where you need to position your hands on the device to take the screenshot. Some people have small hands and uncoordinated hands and the stock option using the hardware keys to too difficult for them. Those people prefer finding the perfect-fitting app that allows them to touch the device in positions that are more suitable to their hands. The choice is your to make.
