Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

What do you want for $60? The 5 inch screen makes this a good value. The main complaints I had about my previous phone were the small screen and limited internal storage. This phone has a great screen for the price. After allowing Google Play to update, the phone has 1.1 gb of internal storage. That is less than my $10 LG. The phone says that it has 4 gb of storage, but only 1.1 gig is usable out of the box with google updates. It has some bloatware for amazon which is understandable because of BLU 's relationship with amazon, but even after deleting all I could, I still had only 1.1 gb free space internal. I like that it is a nearly stock form of Lollipop 5.1 that is not crippled in any way. I don't like that they do not even have a manual for it being so new nor is there a PC adb driver for it. The phone is thin. It has a cheap hollow plastic feel about it and it does flex with a little pressure. I do not think it would fair well being in my back pocket when i set down. The USB port is backwards and upside down. It is located on the top of the phone and you have to plug in the cord upside down. The other end of the cord that plugs into the charger is labeled wrong as in upside down. The speaker is not loud enough for me playing Youtube videos. The FM radio through earbuds works well when you get the antenna position right. The screen is 480p not any kind of HD, but it is good for the price and viewable from any angle. I have not been able to root this device. A lack of of adb driver hurts. I appreciate what BLU is trying to do with this low cost mid range phone. The battery life is small. From a full charge, after one hour of playing around with it, was down to 85%. I would not say it was heavy usage because I was not playing videos while running the camera flash as a flashlight. The phone camera is acceptable for $60. It has a 5MB main and low quality selfie camera. The main is capable of recording 1080 HD @ 30 fps. You best have a SD card because the internal storage really sucks. In conclusion, my opinion is that this is a good value phone for $60, if you are aware of exactly what you are getting. Had I known that it has only 1.1gb of internal storage I would never had ordered it. Looking in storage in settings menu the phone says it has 4gb with 1.06gb free after installing touchpal and youtube apps.
