    Bought th is phone for my brother who lives in Mexico and this phone works perfectly over there. I am also going to buy I e just based on the feed back he’s given me about the phone I gifted him. Super solid OS, good hardware. The price is unbeatable. Super good phone for the price. Definitely worth the purchase.

    The product works great. It does have some overheating issues and occasionally it freezes up but nothing too bad.

    I needed to replace a 3G phone, and AT&T sent me a free one. It didn’t connect to my in-car display, via the android-compatible software. My 3g phone had been a BLU, and it worked great, so I went with this one. Could not be happier!

    Open Box run around

    I like my phone. Purchasing it in "open box" status was only problematic for me because they did not send a compatible charging cord. I switched from an I-phone, so it mattered. When I called to get the right cord sent to me, they said I would have to return the phone and the incompatible cord. I decided to solve my own problem by going to a super store and buying the right cord. The phone has been working fine.

    Bought an "open box", but had to return since it didn't come with the box, the charger, the tool to remove the sim card, the phone cover it or screen protector. Every BLU phone I have bought has been an excellent value

    The cellphone js ok if you are juat using it for a while or for something basic. But if you need sometime robust, durable, of much value and versatile then this ia not for you. Good for the elserly as they don't really do a lot with phones. If you are that kind of person it can last you a while. I love the finger print feature and the fact that it has a long battery life

    My family uses blu phones exclusively, so we have three and this is a nice addition to the blu family. It performs every function you could want in a cell phone and has a great price. It doesnt have high end sound or camera but is more than capable for everyday use.

    Phone comes with a case and screen protector which is nice. But I had to return the phone after a week. I was having issues with receiving calls and texts. Didn't have a flashlight installed so I had to download one?!?! I was very disappointed so I returned it for a Samsung which I like much better.

    My old phone broke on New Year’s Eve and I was in a panic. This phone was a great and cost effective replacement. It has all the features I need and I was able to transfer my service from Mint in just a few minutes.

    You get what you pay for, defiantly not anything special, or even high tech, this is the kind of phone that you give a teenager starting out. It's not super durable. It freezes a lot and shuts off often. If you can spend a little more, in the long run you'll be glad you did.
