File transfer using the USB cable is not obvious. After connecting with the computer, swipe down from the top of the BLU screen, click the USB banner, and select transfer files. Otherwise, the computer just charges the phone battery.
It's too early to give a rating, because I don't know what the phone can or can't do.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have had issues with dropped calls or being told someone cannot hear me clearly. I also have trouble with the keyboard being small and easily hit the home button instead of the space bar.

First and foremost, I was NOT aware the phone was generic/refurbished upon purchase. It is NOT geared for playing games/apps that came with it ...consistently shuts down. Second, I find it nearly impossible to turn the phone off...I have to hold the button for a very long time for the phone to turn off. Don't feel comfortable using, so I will stick with checking emails and using to enter/exit my other communication portals.
