    Out of the box the unit is as close to stock android as you can get, it's really light on the bloatware. My main phone is the Huawei Nexus 6P and I got this phone to play with the utilities of a modern day smart phone. I use the Life X8 as a dash cam, security cam, back up phone, in-car Wi-Fi, ad hoc vehicle tracker in case my car gets stolen. Generally, I use this device to do things I wouldn't want to do with my primary unit.

    This is a great phone for the price. I previously was a Samsung Galaxy customer but I got tired of paying several hundred dollars every time it would malfunction or break (because I don't believe in shelling out thousands of dollars a year to these big name service providers and since I live in an urban area and can get service for half the cost when paying monthly, that's what I do). Although there are a few things I miss from the Galaxy, they are minimal and I am happy to give them up for the price of this phone.

    I have had user friendly cell phones but couldn't get on internet in the past. I really like my BLU phone. With a little tutoring from my son who has one I feel knowledgeable using it and really like it

    I have not had any problems yet, but have only had the phone for a short period of time. I had a Blu phone previously and was happy with that one, so, I'm hoping this one is as good. So far it is.....

    BLU - Life X8 4G Phone works decently. It does have some learning curve, especially if it is the first time you are using an UNLOCKED smart phone. The phone takes micro SD cards up to 64 GB in size to add additional storage space for your smartphone. It also has 8 GB of internal storage space. It also has 1 GB of RAM. I would still recommend it though.

    got this phone because my old one was out of memory. Got more than anticipated. Even my iPhone son was impressed that I could lock the sound out for a specific time, since I can never remember to turn it back on after work. Never got the hang of selfies but this phone makes it easy.
