This is a great phone.
I had a Lenovo Moto G4 and the screen was changing (Ghost) by itself. I had to change the brightness often to stop it. I had a Blu R1 for years. I gave the Blu R1 to my daughter who drops it constantly and she has never had a problem with it. I bought a Blu R2 LTE from Amazon. There are differences between the Blu R2 and the Blu R2 LTE. For example: (R2).....(R2 LTE) 8..........13 Megapixel (Camera) 1..........2 Gigabytes (RAM) 3..........4 G LTE (Speed) 8..........16 Gigabytes (Storage) $90......$109 (Price) *R2 and R2 LTE support WiFi 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz ** R2 and R2 LTE for the first 24-48 hours Bluetooth was difficult to pair and WiFi dropped. After the first 24-48 this these problems disappeared. I do not know if was because of an Over The Air (OTA) software upgrade or something else. Pay the extra $19 and get the Blu R2 LTE. It was packaged great with a case and a screen protector. It has one micro SD and two micro SIMM slots inside the back aluminum cover. The two SIMMs are for two different phone numbers. The display is 5.2 inches.The display is great but not real High Definition (768 Pixels). The advantages of a small display and a low resolution display are long battery life and low battery consumption. There are two 13 megapixel cameras and two flashes. One camera and flash is on the back and one camera and flash is on the front. Camera resolution is not the determining factor for picture quality. Aperture, focus and image stabilization also determine picture quality. The back camera is decent. I did not use the front camera. The phone is great. The one speaker located on the back of the phone is loud and there is an electronic boost. The earphone jack and micro USB (Not USB C) are located on the top of the phone and are not centered (Unusual). It has Android Nouget 7.0. I do not know if Oreo 8.0 upgrade is included. This is not the phone with the biggest display for $109 but it is the highest quality phone I have seen for $109. There is also an accelerometer, charge and notification light, and proximity sensor. Mine is Gold it came with a semi-transparent white and frosted silicone case. It looks more expensive than it cost. To improve pictures Camera Anti-shake On (default Off) Also consider Auto Scene Detection On (default Off) Picture Size 8 M (Full Frame) (default 13 M) To increase speed Settings BLU Privacy Help improve BLU products Off (default On) Enhanced Device Support Off (default On) I also bought a Blu R2 Plus. It has a bigger display 5.5 inches and high resolution (1028 Pixels). The battery life is shorter. Also, the Blu R2 Plus does not have CDMA for Verizon. I prefer the Blu R2 LTE versus the Blu R2 Plus because of the battery life and CDMA for Verizon.
