Customer Ratings & Reviews

Phone that has the access everything that other phones have without the price for an unlocked phone. Not much internal memory, but can insert 64 GB SD chip. Perhaps a little heavier than other phones I've had. Takes decent photos. Battery life adequate. For someone who is fairly electronically challenged...this is doable. Came with phone cover, screen protector and sim card adaptors! Nice surprise!

I was looking for an inexpensive unlocked phone I could use on AT&T without having to sign another long term contract. I read the reviews on this phone and thought it was a good fit for my needs. I have been very impressed with the performance of this phone. It has 2-3 bars of signal strength where my old Motorola had 1-2. The battery life is good. The screen size and resolution is good. The features are more than I need but it's nice to know it has them if I find a need for them in the future. For the money I don't think you can find a better deal.

Bought this mostly for rideshare driving, great phone it does almost everything that flagship phones such as iPhone 7 plus or Samsung Galaxy at about 1/5 of the price. Also battery life is way better then my iPhone 7 plus. Also if you have a compatible new car and download free Android Auto app , you will be able to use Google Maps or Waze on your car’s big screen, which is very cool. Highly recommended this phone

I have had this phone for 2 weeks to replace my stolen Moto X-Pure. I like video play back, app usage and the screen size. Pros: Good screen size Came with a case and screen protector Good working memory Has 2 ports for SIM cards Expandable memory, up to 64G Durable Cons: Video can glitch when there are multiple ads on a webpage, however those pages are pages that glitch on a PC. Compared to my previous Moto G and iPhone 7 those usually glitched as well. The screen isn't full HD. Other than needing this for talk text, music and some internet/app use I have no big complaints about this phone. It is a good replacement and I hope to keep this in use for at least a year before I move unto something else. The best decision I made was to switch to unlocked phones.

This is a really good phone for the price. Plus is already unlocked for any carrier. Sent it to Cuba, worked perfect

This phone is brilliant, great screen size, Android format, easy to use and navigate. Has all the bells and whistles I was looking for gives Samsung and Apple a run for their money!!!!

This phone has a good battery life. The only drawback I can find with it is there is nothing to let you know if you have a message waiting. It connects to the internet well but I have not downloaded anything but apps from the play store.

My Galaxy Note Edge died and I am a die hard for Samsung's Note series. I bought the BLU R1 Plus as an interim phone until the Note 8 is released. I especially like the feel of the phone in hand using the case included with the phone. I like the look when the screen is off. In my opinion very sleek. This phone is thicker and heavier than all the flagships but that doesn't bother me. It's just a bit and by no means a bother. I won't get into the weeds of Specs and what not because I can't, I can just say it works fine. I mostly talk, text, email and social media. It does not have the writing function of my Note Edge and there are some personalization functions that I sorely miss...like different Screensaver for home and lock screens, being able to change font styles...only does size. But those are my personal preferences. Screen pixelation, sound quality, and camera are all good. I did have some issues receiving text messages but I went to my ATT carrier and they put network settings on the phone and I haven't had anymore issues. For the purpose I got this phone I don't have any cons. It's a great stand in. I will even probably keep using it after the Note 8 release just to let some time pass to make sure there are no issues with the Note 8. I recommend this phone if you don't HAVE to have the bells and whistles of the flagships. Price was great... $140 bucks! Android version 6.0.

I got this phone to replace my wife lost's phone. The battery life is great, take good pictures, it processes application fast. I bought a 16gig phone and I added 32 gig memory card. It works very fine. Great phone. Since my wife is not into games, I do not know its performance if you play a lot of games.

Great phone Easy to use . Takes good pictures ! Comes with everything you need !

Excellent product in price and service and nice camera

So far the phone has all the frills I needed and wanted. Did have a little bit of a hard time registering the sim card with Tracfone. Actually took 3 days. Also adding air time and service is a little tricky with Tracfone services to add. It will not work with purchase of 1 year plans and minutes. I ended up having to call Tracfone and using a credit card to add the Service and minutes. This issue is no fault of the phone it is Tracfone with the issue as they want you to use primarily their branded phones. I also plan to use this phone while traveling abroad so the second sim port in this phone is exactly what I needed. Thanks Blu and also Best Buy for selling the quality open phones.

This is a great smart phone for the price and just as good as my former LG phone. I did have some advertisements pop up then logging into the phone from the lock screen. I read online how to disable and I no longer see them.

The phone works as it should, the only 2 things that I don't like about the phone are: 1. Battery Life is not what I expected. 2. Not Enough Memory

The phone is great for the price, but the battery life is not great and the phone slows down when you have multiple apps running in the background.

Got this for my mother, she likes it. She's not a heavy phone user so it works great for her. Good price, camera and video are okay.

I took a chance at buying another phone from Best Buy this time I was buying one for my girlfriend my last phone purchase didn't go so well But this time I made sure to talk to somebody who really knew what they were talking about unlike the last time, This phone was definitely worth the money and my girlfriend was very happy with it and the employee that helped me this time was very honest and knowledgeable about the phone. I would definitely recommend this phone for the price it was worth it.

Great phone for teenagers at a reasonable price. Sound quality is unexpectedly good

Excellent entry level phone, especially with having dual sim card capability. We are able to travel overseas with our US sim card, but also use a sim card from the country we are visiting...this is a great feature.

The phone has one flaw. the mute, mic, and speaker are near the top of the phone when speaking- and one can easily mute the phone with one's ear. The phone is very affordable and can save one thousands with a trac phone plan, unless your a gamer or always on the phone away from home. I use my phone for calls, e-mail, and data sparingly away from home. Out of the house I mostly use text which is cheap; and at home I use my own Wi-Fi and VOIP and email. The 35$ three month plan is all I need. Best buy employees are reluctant to help you get fully started ie. porting number, helping with basics, but if you are persistent they will get you there.
