    I bought this phone on an open-box excellent condition sale priced at about $78. It's now been over a year and a half and I'm pleased to say that I'm using the same phone to write this review. Overall I'm very satisfied with the phone's performance and longevity, very much worth the $78 originally invested in it.

    My experience is a good one so far I really am enjoying the phone. I can put it next to it comparison to a Samsung Galaxy 10 which is what I have before and they are extremely compatible.

    Good phone. Was wary but my 16 gb Galaxy was starting to fail. Always pick up the bargain phones when they're a little past their prime. It's actually the G60 phone and you won't find a v70 manual. Back cover comes off at a corner - hard to find and not in instructions. First thing I noticed was that the bloatware - and there wasn't that much of it - could be deleted! A major improvement on the Galaxy. Was nice that it came with protective case and screen overlay. Cons are these: 1) no magnetometer, so compass app won't work - but you can't hardly know the sensors any phone has beforehand; 2) not many ringtone/notification sound options, but found plenty at Tones7.com; and 3) call volume could be a little louder - not the ring, but the voice volume.

    Many Problems Up Front

    So I bought this phone for a backup/temporary phone, seemed like a good phone to purchase that had 64gb of memory. Not the case one bit. I popped in the sim and micro memory card, started the whole start up process, everything was working great until I tried to open Instagram and some links that were in my gmail account and also a link that was sent in my messaging app. All crashed the phone with the android system fail message. Tried a few YouTube tricks nothing worked. Next step factory reset, that actually solved the problem until two days later the problem happened again. I finally had it. I returned the phone back to best buy. The techs actually tried to solve the problems but couldn't figure it out. We finally decided to exchange the phone for the same model. The techs transferred all my info from the old phone to the new one, and I left the store with everything in working order. Two thumbs up! Until the very next day I started getting the android system fail when trying to open up apps and links. I was going to do another factory reset when I saw the reset app preference, I decided to give that a try (why not Ive done everything else), and that actually worked, for a while. I should of just returned the phone and got something else, but for some reason I decided to stick it out. I probably did three more factory resets and just like magic it was fixed. Knock on wood I haven't had a problem. Camera is good, screen is very clear, comes with a case which is a plus, headphones are trashy, but other than that its been a good phone.

    this is a 64GB phone with two SIMS for less than $100 ! It works well, it does what it is supposed to do and the battery seems to last more than three days ! If you just need a phone to be a phone, you need to switch sim card because you have family or business in a country you visit often, if you want to unlock apps with your fingerprint and you don't want to get a mortgage to pay your phone.......this is perfect for you ! And think about this: if you drop it or lose it (like often happens nowadays), then you just replace it for less than 100 bucks and you don't have to feel guilty about that !

    I bought this BLU phone to replace my aging phone. Overall its performance is good. Lots of storage and dual sim capability is handy. It comes with a screen protector and cover as nice additions. I have not tried camera much but pictures look fine to me

    The phone arrived on time and in good condition. Overall it is a good phone. Its connectivity with other devices (Roku, Echo Dot, laptop, Kindle Fire) works very well. Its camera is fine for the price of the phone. A pro is that in addition to the charger, USB cable and earphones, it comes with two screen glass sheds and a phone case. Two cons: the plastic back cover looks poor and its software is somewhat stiff. Used to Motorola and LG software, this one looks basic. But beyond that, it is a good phone for those looking for a functional phone at an affordable price.

    I purchased this phone for my husband, his just stopped working suddenly and he needed a new phone asap, he picked this one mostly because it was pretty much the only affordable chioce available for same day pick up. So far he seems happy with it since he hasn't complaint about anything, it even comes with a case and two screen protectors, This is our first purchase from this brand, I can't speak about its quality, but so far so good. If you're on a tight budget I'd say it's a decent phone for the price.

    I bought this phone for my 10 year old son because he needed a phone with more internal storage. When it arrived and I opened the box, I was surprised to find not only the phone but wired earbuds, a case, and a screen protector as well. All of this for a little over $100! The phone itself is stylish and was easy to set up. The display quality and sound (especially with the wired earbuds that came with it) are all good. The camera is decent. You can play around with the settings to improve the picture quality some like shooting photos in professional mode, etc. I couldn't have picked a better phone especially at that price.

    I was looking for a cheaper phone than iPhone. I think it’s a good value for around $100.00. It’s unlocked and compatible to use in other countries not just USA. Easy to customize.

    This was a gift. The recipient loved the phone. It's a good phone/price for being unlocked with an alright amount of storage. He didn't need anything super flashy. This was perfect for his needs

    This it a great starter phone for kids you have all the smart phone necessities at a cheap price and it’s study. Comes with a case and screen protector. Family link let’s you have control of what you want your kids to download app wise and control screen time as well as other great features To keep them from seeing things you don’t want. Battery life is good. Camera as well all around great for kids even as they grow. With the pandemic we chose this because it’s hotspot capability in case she needs to use that for online school again. And being unlocked we have the freedom to switch carriers as we wish.

    This Blu though attractive and the camera takes great pictures it doesn’t work with most of my apps. It doesn’t connect to my security camera app; it won’t take me to page links on my work app...it constantly crashes or says app is not working and it doesn’t recognize WiFi signals; with my personal WiFi I would have to sit close to the modem in order to pick up a signal. It just doesn’t work with my needs. I can’t return it because the restocking fee is rediculous . I wanted an inexpensive phone that works I should have gone with the Nokia. The Blu is an international phone ..the sales rep should’ve educated me on its usage. I assumed that because it is an android phone it will compliment all my apps so I didn’t ask any questions about the phones usage.

    This phone is such a good deal. The camera works well & I love its professional mode. There is the option to use face recognition for opening (although I haven't tried this). It comes with everything - case, screen protector, headphones with radio capability. I love it!

    It's an ok phone. I like the idea of having a lot of memory, so that's a plus! Not the greatest camera quality. You also have to hold the position of the camera for a while because it takes a few seconds to register. Also, I don't seem to have very good service with this phone, even though I use the same SIM card as my old phone. It will not even take calls sometimes -it won't even ring. A lot of times calls break up too. The speaker on the phone is not loud at all, which is very frustrating. Sometimes the brightness on the phone goes lower for no reason. I liked that it came with screen protectors and a nice case. The headphones that came with it are junk. Not the worst phone ever, but definitely not the best.

    For the price, I've been happy with this phone. The camera is good, it's been reliable, and I've used it for over a year now. BLU is an American company, and provides affordable phones with good features. My screen protector broke a few places, and my screen finally broke. Eventually, I got a TUDIA case, and haven't had problems after that. I charge it every other day, or every three days. The battery is still good. I will be buying more of these for gifts.
