Top notch phone at $150. Best I have had
on March 29, 2015
Posted by: oericsylla
from Muncie, IN
So this is my third Blu Phone. These phones are pretty great. I just didn't read up on other models before I jumped into the first one, studio G. My second phone was the Studio X plus.
I returned the Studio X plus only because of the data speed I have getting on it.
This phone , the Studio 5 HD LTE, I everything I was looking for. HD 5 inch screen, Amazing 13mp camera, SnapDragon 400 quad processor, 1 GB of Ram, expandable memory, and true 4G LTE.. I love this phone already, just got it today, but already tested it out, heavy user, multi tasker, and it put in work.
I want to emphasize the 4G LTE in this phone vs the other models that claim 4G HSPA+. HSPA+ is 3G, period. I never saw anything over 3-4mbs on the other models, I got this phone with LTE, pop int he sim card, and instantly got over 12 mbs with Tmobile. and even more on Att sim card. This is the same price as the studio x plus which claims HSPA+. Do yourself a favor and go with this one, 5 HD LTE. slightly small screen, but everything else is better. camera, processor, LTE,
I would recommend this to a friend!

Everything you want in a phone, without LTE

I originally purchase the Blu studio G and returned it for this phone. I like everything about this phone, except for one thing. The 5.5 inch screen is great. 1G of ram with not lag. expendable storage. 8mp camera. This phone is not joke, especially at $149. This replaced my Galaxy S5 and I don't miss it. This phone is pretty amazing.
BUT. there is one think I don't like about this phone. It may not be completely the phone's fault though. It says it is 4G (HSPA+). not LTE. Well I was using the phone with ATT and Tmobile service. not completely sure of the coverage in my area with those 2 provider when it comes to their HSPA+. so the only thing I ever got was 3g speed. HSPA+ was not existent. I am talking about 2-3mbs. The odd thing is, I did return this phone for the Studio 5 HD LTE, and it worked perfectly in the same area with both providers. LTE coverage.
My conclusion is either the phone is not 4G at all or both of these providers have no HSPA+ coverage or network. If you need to choose between the two phone studio X plus and the Studio 5 HD LTE, go with the 5 HD LTE. The internet speed difference with huge. and they are the same price. small screen but worth it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Blu Studio G Unlocked Cell Phone: This unlocked phone will meet your needs as you work, play and travel. It serves as a mobile hotspot when you're on the go, so you can access the Internet from just about anywhere. Use the dual SIM card slots to answer both local and international calls without needing multiple devices.

Great price Great phone, but limited

I bought this phone yesterday and returned it today. Not really due to issues with the phone but it's limitations in my usage. After installing my apps, it started to slow down. It does have only 512 mb ram. That's where the problem came about. I am a heavy multi-tasker. Just didn't work for my usage. Otherwise great phone. Thicker than expected. At only $99 good camera quad core dual Sim and sd expansion. Can't beat the price. I returned this phone for the Blu studio X Plus because of more ram and bigger screen.

Let me start by saying I also owned the tab 3 8in until now, for a reason.
With the bad first... camera. That is it so far. The camera is 3mpx. That is low for a camera in this day of technology. But a camera in a tablet is a non factor to me and to most obviously. Samsung has realized that customer don't really care about a camera in a tablet. This is a companion device to my note 2 phone with a 8 mpx camera. I use the camera on the phone not the tablet. As do most tablet owners. That would make sense as to why Samsung has downgraded to 3mpx from the 5mpx they had in the tab 3 8in.
Now for the good stuff..
Price is perfect for this device, $269. And to launch the device on sale at $239 is even better.
Screen resolution is considered by most to be kinda low for the now tablet, but the screen looks great at this resolution 1280 x 800. Yes some other tablets have higher, but not forth complaining to me. Go look at one in person and tell me the screen is bad. It is kinda like buying a new Honda Accord and your happy with it, but you look at an Audience with all the luxurious features. Are you going to pay that much extra for the fancy extras?
The weight? It is light, very light. Alol that is packet into this device and weight about 11 oz. That is amazing.
Quality... holding it in your hand feels great. The leather back gives it the quality texture that deviateshe from the old plastic back we know Samsung for. The entire device feels sturdy and made to last.
Features... this device has everything I can think of. Even the software and bloat ware from previous models have been minimized. TouchWiz is no longer laggy, it feels lighter, faster and smooth. I guess I would credit that to the quad-core processor. This device is fast and smooth. With my tab 3, I experienced lag within the same day of using it. Sad but true. I didn't complain about it much though because I realize it is just a tablet and not meant to do computer level tasks. But this tab 4 can. So far. I haven't had any lag, crashing, studded or freezing. I'm pretty excited and impressed. Again I would credit that to the quad-core and kit Kat android. Just all around smooth. Samsung got this one right on point, except for the camera, but I won't harp on Samsung for that. Let me not forget to mention multi tasking, screen mirroring, expendable storage, 8 in screen. At this price, not sure of any reason to go with any other tablet. I could see reason for the tab pro 8.4 in, but outside of that, this is it. LOL I feel like I just wrote a love story about this tablet. Maybe you will feel the same after getting one too.

Galaxy tab 3 is quality, can't put it down

Samsung knows quality. I have done my research before purchasing this tablet. I thought it may be slow from the reviews, but not at all. I am not sure what others are doing on their "tablet", but obviously it isn't made for that. Use you tablet as a tablet, not a computer. Even with that said, I push it to its limits with great performance. I do currency trading in the Forex market on this tablet, amazing. If you know anything about the horse power needed for charting, tools, rate updates and news feeds when trading the stock market, you will know what resources needed for it to run smoothly. Not sure what people think they need under the hood of a tablet, but it is not a gaming pc, not a mac pro, it is a tablet. Performance is excellent to me. Multi tasking is great, sound output, battery life, quick, responsive, and quality feel. I know samsung is known for their plastic back covers, but hold this tablet in your hands and tell me it doesn't feel like quality. If you want a metal build tablet like an ipad, then you will sacrifice weight. This tablet is so light, I would know. I traded in my ipad 2 for this tab 3. Much better, big upgrade. Let me also mention, 8 in screen size is the happy medium. For me 7 was just too small considering I use a note 2 phone, 10 in bigger than what I needed for portability and weight. 8 in is the perfect size for a tablet. Like I said, samsung knows quality and has prioritized that into this tab 3. Happy trading to all!
