    Awesome!!!!! Has all of the specs like most $500+ phones and more! Lacks a bit with the Bluetooth connection quality. But almost a perfect device essentially. Comes with case, screen protectors, and sticker! Aside from normal accessories that are stock, with Samsung, Apple, etc.

    My mother's S8 broke so I got her this. She loves its and even said "why do people pay $800 for a phone when this does everythjng" So I think she likes it. Check the specs and make sure what you want. But it's big and has a fingerprint reader which are wins.

    Fantastic Value

    For the price, this is an amazing phone. Right off the bat, it is speedy, has a generous amount of internal storage and a dual lens camera. A large battery provides a day's worth of power easy with even moderate use, and the screen is crisp and responsive - although it only goes up to 720p resolution. There is no NFC or wireless charging here, and the phone charges with a standard USB connection and not the faster Type-C port. Inside the box comes two screen protectors (one plastic and one tempered glass) and a clear gel case. The V9 won't compete with the $1000 Galaxy phones, but as an unlocked option for under $200, it is a fantastic value for the price.

    It has all the things you want for a great price. Fingerprint unlock, face unlock and lots of storage. All in all a great phone. The camera isn't the best but it's good enough.

    This is exactly what I was looking for! I love the camera and the storage space the phone comes with, also you can put another SD card up to 64gb. And for those who know me, know I love taking my pictures!

    With the 2 sim card slot it's very helpful specially when you are in another country because you don't need a contract. Since it's an unlock phone it's very convenient and also they are very cheap.

    Great screen size and cell functions, the bad thing about it it was the touch functions, cell acreen wouldn't sense my touch when I wanted to use it , I had to press hard on screen to pick whatever I wanted to to see, I try to return it, but Best buy employee told me I couldn't, even though I was on my 14 day trial period, she said I had to go through the manufacturer ( bad costumer service ) I left then came back another day and a different best buy employee helped me and he said " no problem I will swap it for another one " that's how you treat costumers....but I wouldn't recommend this cell ...

    I kept on being pushed away from this phone by the best buy "expert" who wanted to sell me a vastly most expensive Samsung or a much lower performing iPhone for a similar price. I decided against his advice and bought "the most returned phone in the store". I've had Samsungs from the Galaxy 2 to the S8, ans was terrified to have gotten a cheap phone. This phone surpassed every hope I had. This is THE best prepaid phone they have in store. And it does not cost $500+ as its direct competition would come up costing you.

    She was so excited about the phone.. look, feel, storage space. Her only complaint so far is that she can't receive pictures via text. I haven't looked into just yet, but will soon.

    still paying for silly phone that went for a swim, so we needed an unlocked phone for one of our triplets. couldn't make it look like he was getting rewarded so I focused on price point. I did not expect to get so much for such a low price. His brothers are jealous. Hopefully not jealous enough for sabotage, but close...

    So far, the blu isn't the best phone I've owned & it's not the worst. The dual camera is awesome! It has a lot of features to it...I'm still trying them all out. I'm not exactly sure & can't figure out how to get the Wi-Fi feature to work on it though. That's frustrating since where I live, there isn't always the best signal. The picture/graphics are amazing. I love that in the box came a case & a few screen protectors for it.
