    I had never heard of BLU before. I took a chance on it. I'm still learning all of the things my new phone has to offer. I like how the phone shows little short cuts and explanations on how to use it. I would purchase it again. The battery life is better than I expected too.

    Bought this phone about a month ago and I do not regret buying it. Exactly what I was looking for. Pictures come out great. Has a long battery life. The screen is the right size.

    I am usually a Samsung person, however I took a chance with the Blue due to price and speed, ease of use. I am highly satisfied with my new phone and would recommend it to anyone looking for a great phone.

    I did not want to spend up to $1,000 for a new phone, so bought the Blu phone at Best Buy. It has a lot of internal memory and I see a huge difference in speed from my previous phone with less memory. So far I have no complaints, it is a great phone for the money.

    Loud loud and loud! Loud ringtones loud button tones loud music loud ringers everything sounds great which is what I was looking for and internet works fine browsers fine lots of space camera works fine could be better but I didn't buy this phone for the camera I bought it for the space and for the speed and the sound I work on this phone it's great for work if you can work on a small tablet you can work on this phone! Battery is descent. I'm at 50% right now and it's 5pm here. Charges up quick! No complaints as of yet! I will NEVER pay 600 to a $1000 for a cell phone! I have been a blu fan since they sold here in Texas! :)

    I am liking this phone so far. It is a lot bigger than my previous phone was (iphone 5) and it has a pretty good camera. The screen is really clear and the phone seems to run smoothly. It is a beautiful phone all around. I like that it comes with 2 cases, 2 screen protectors with one apready installed, and some headphones. Most devices you'd have to pay extra for any accessories but not with this product because thwy come woth it.

    One of the best smart phone I've bought from the BLU brand. The only thing I will say is that you will have to remove a lot of bloatware immediately once you activate the device but once you do, the phone operates much faster and efficiently.

    I am someone whose always had the newest iPhone or Android. I needed a quick find that had the same features but only my budget. This phone is that. Has infared facial unlock as well as touch ID. If the iPhone X had both it would be so much better because of that, I gave this phone five stars. The apps do not lag and the phone is easy to grip unlike the iPhone XS Max which would always leave my thumbs numb from stretching a Ross the screen. This phone has a similar look to the iPhone but at $200 from Best buy only, this gem surpassed my expectations by far. Not to mention the camera quality is amazing as well.

    This is a nice phone. For starters, the price is really good. And I'm glad for that. I had another I got 6 months ago that I used for everything. Then my wife was taking pictures at the beach recently and dropped it in the water. The phone is zero waterproof. So that was the end of the first phone. But I was impressed with this android phone so I got another one just like it. The case does suck. The case bumper guard is trash and will break at the slightest bending. So be extra careful taking it on and off of the phone. Other than that no complaints.

    This phone is solidly built out of good materials. Materials feel like they should be on a phone much more expensive. The camera is okay, probably the biggest let down of the phone. The battery life, screen quality, speaker quality, and features are all excellent.

    I've had this phone for a little over a year now so this is a review with some usage behind it. This phone is up to par with (2018) flagship phones except in two category's. 1. is the camera, although really good again for the price its obviously not a top notch one. 2. I've noticed small things like being able to hold Bluetooth connections on some products is sometimes a little choppy but still does a good job. Other than that I've had no complaints with this product, great screen good talking experience software has still been smooth etc. Excellent starter phone or bag up phone and not bad as you main phone as well. I would recommend this product!

    For $300 phone..I had looked at Huawei, OPPO, P1 and never thought BLU had enter the playing field with this mid-range VIVO Xl+. As an android long time user (since the beta side loaded in HTC touch) and running lineage Os 15.1 on oneplus although still works fine but every once awhile I get this random reboot, that tells me its time for a new phone...oneplus is getting more pricier than first launched and the 5G network should be widely available in a year or 2 ( I hope) so skipped buying a SD845 phone is no-brainier. BLU's hardware seems pretty solid. better than average at best!. Comes with everything you need. The OS can get little buggy (you will notice that once a week) but 90%+ closed to android vanilla is good enough for hold me over for another year or two...for a transition purpose this is solid choice! Now, Without heavy gaming VIVO Xl+handle my daily tasks with no issue. Now just waiting for the Pie!!

    Great up to date Android features. No issues. All contacts and apps transferred with no issues. Upgrade from Galaxy S6. And I get to keep an extra $700 in my pocket. Great buy. You'll see.
