I'm a proud owner of LG V10 (did somebody say huuuge?). Yes, the V10 is a very huge phone. Plus it has a very poor battery life. So, I got this little BLU Dash L2 phone for use when I'm home and just streaming music or video (via Google Chromecast). Obviously, I got it for its portability (my Chromecast remote control) and also to conserve battery on my daily driver, the V10. But I find it to be fast enough to play music and video and surf the web. It also makes and receives phone calls, clearly. Wonderful:)
Note that if this is your daily driver, you can install just a handful of apps as it is only 4GB internal drive. 4GB in 2016, really? In fact, some apps will not allow you to move to SD card. I tried this Android 6 "adoptable storage" feature but it didn't work; apps still got installed ONLY on the meagre internal storage.

It's a great phone for a child you don't want to spend hundreds of dollars for a phone through a provider. Also best buy protection agreement is wonderful. No questions ask return policy. The phone do lack 1 feature and that's ram. It would of been nice to see 3gb of ram but for game playing I must say it's better then my Samsung Galaxy On5

Needed a Dual sim card phone to take out of town on business trips.
I really like the phone. It has the latest OS. Android 6.0. The phone was quick when just using it as a phone or for texting. This issue with the phone is if you use it for apps. It doesn't have enough memory to handle multiple apps. That is the reason I returned it. I needed a faster processor and more RAM which this phone does not have.

It can be used as basic phone for calls and mesaages. Will not work as great phone as it lacks memory even with extended memory card.

I bought this phone as a quick $50 phone to use while HTC was repairing my 10. This phone has terrible sound, extremely low memory capacity, is unattractive and the CPU cannot handle certain apps like PokemonGO. It's good in a pinch of you need an emergency phone temporarily, but if this was my everyday phone, I would go back to writing letters and calling from the home phone. Which might not be a bad thing. Remember when you could just go somewhere and do something and no one bothered you? Ah, but I digress...

An all rounder

I decided to go with 'an all rounder' because the review, dimensions and photos in my email turned out just so except for the size of the phone itself. It was rather small but a smog fit in the palm and pocket. Shiny steel casing didn't give an otherwise firm grip but the power it packed by way of 1.35Ghz and the Marshmallow O/S surpassing my high-end phone I was replacing made me believe it will be worthwhile especially when I spent over 15mins with both Sales Assistants in the store discussing the pros and cons.
Downside? Not much internal memory but still it did allow installation of a lot of Apps before deciding on size of expandable memory I wanted. Another personal to me was the shiny casing Which is liable to slip off my hand since I don't like the extra casings on phone usually for grip and protection I wanna believe. Last I checked bestbuy.com online I saw Sold Out!!

We learned about this phone during a store visit. It seemed surprisingly inexpensive, is unlocked, and can accept two SIM cards. So far, we have no unpleasant surprises.

This phone was purchased for my 81 yr old mother. We wanted something compatible with her plan, easy enough to learn to use -being her first smartphone, reliable, inexpensive -as she doesn't even have the interest to use all the features of a smartphone. To say the least, it has been frustrating for my mother and disappointing for me. The sound is not loud enough, it doesn't swipe properly to pick-up calls, shuts off or freezes when trying to download or access any apps. We've already taken it back to the store once - 2 days after purchase the ringer wasn't working. Was explained that she must have unknowingly unselected a ring option. Should have heeded the signs and left it there then. Now we're looking at other options because this is not working for us!
Maybe we got a faulty phone - but would not recommend it!
Signed,
Frustrated & a NoGo

Bought this phone so I could download a free app to communicate with family members overseas for free. Was happy that I found this product as I did not know that the unlocked phone allow you to use it even overseas. It has two slots for sim cards; one for use when I am home, and one when I am overseas. As I only use the phone for calls and texts, I did not want to spend too much money on it. Although the sales associate suggested that this basic phone has limited memory and that picture taking also is limited in quality and etc. I am glad I did not take the advice to buy a more expensive one as I find this is a good phone for whatever I am using. The pictures I took using the phone was not too bad. The sound quality is also good. I could also download some apps that were useful for me. For what I am using and the money I pay, the phone serves me well and I am very happy with my purchase.

I bought this for use a a backup using a provider called 'Freedompop'. Freedompop claims to provide 200 minutes per month free, and says it works with Android 4 and up. This has Android 6. I got the phone and Freedompop, and spent a bit of time, and couldn't get Freedompop to work. Extensive reading told me that they have a list of supported phones, and this isn't one of them. That list isn't available until you can't connect and are deep in troubleshooting. The list says that 'unsupported phones may work, but aren't supported." I returned the phone.

It's not a flagship, just a reliable phone to serve as a bridge if your phone breaks and you're waiting for a new one. Lags a bit and I'd recommend a memory card from the start, but tough to beat at that price, particularly if you only use it for texts and calls.
