    Its great for the price. I have a samsung 21 ultra for everyday use but was traveling and needed a local simcard for certain apps I needed to use to have access to many different places in that country and I didn't want to swap out my simcard so I purchase this cheap phone for that reason. It works perfect! Makes me wonder why spend 7 times its cost on a phone just for the brand name.

    The phone was okay, but didn't support sim cards from the other countries. If it worked, I wouldn't get notifications. Eventually I had to return it.

    Budget phone

    Phone is a decent budget phone, will get basic tasks done without hassle. Don't expect crazy performance from this thing. Only real complaint is that Blu is still making phones in 2021 that have MicroUSB rather than USB C, can't really see them saving that much money from that but hey it is what it is. Blu stop it, thank you :).

    This unlocked smart phone is a good value for the price. No, it's not as slick as, say, a Moto Z or the latest Samsung. But that's not the point. It's solid, responsive, has 1 more gig of Ram than your average budget phone, and comes with a case. It also runs on Android Q. What's not to like about a thoroughly modern phone that comes with a case for less than $150 out-the-door?
