I am enjoying the phone and my purchase with 100% satisfaction. Everything works easily and isn't too complicated to figure out, which can at times be a problem with some phones. I'd not heard of Blu phones before but this phone clearly demonstrates the professionalism inherent in your company. As I said before, I am 100% satisfied with this purchase.
Phone is way too big, can’t customize ring tone for text messages from certain callers, can’t bulk delete text messages (have to open each message to delete each one, can’t delete selected phone calls from log (you can only clear the entire call history), can’t access my existing gmail account (it wants the to create a new account). Yuck!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This is my second BLU phone, I was thinking about switching to a brand name, but I like the workings of this brand, so far. This one is longer than my other phone, but it's comfortable. So I guess all is good, now. Thank u.
Recently, I decided to upgrade from a flip phone to a smartphone. I am unhappy about how to turn the phone off. I have to press the power button and the volume button at the same time. As I start to press the off button, it goes away and I have to try many times before I can get the phone to turn off. Also, I have found some features no longer work. I use this phone to text some relatives and in case of an emergency. There is no way, I would stop using my landline.
