Glitches
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

I love these handsets and still really rate the brand,but this model is very glitchy! Switches off at 74% battery and won't switch on unless recharged again. Poor battery life. Intermittent problems with WiFi. Fingerprint id hit and miss. Two handsets and exactly the send problems with both. Please consider this brand when purchasing a new phone, just definitely not this model!

Great for a novice user
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

I'm not really that into phones, but finally got fed up of the lack of apps available for my previous windows phone and upgraded to this when there was an Amazon deal on.I'm really pleased with the phone, it was easy to set up and download all the apps that I need / want. Picture is excellent, battery life great and it's quick to recharge, the screen is very responsive - the only small issue I've had is that the fingerprint sensor sometimes stops working until the phone is rebooted.It was easy to port my previous PAYG number & credit from Tesco. Apart from the very occasional phone call or text, I use the phone only on Wifi networks, so the Tesco 4G issue isn't an issue for me.

The replacement faired a little better. I would steer well clear of this brand
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

I can't believe Amazon would bring this brand to the UK! I don't have this model but have 3 dead BLU phones on a window sill here!One was given as a gift and lasted 1 month! The replacement faired a little better. I would steer well clear of this brand! But if you're a gambler go ahead and roll the dice. You might get a good one.

Good budget phone
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

This is good budget phone with lots of storage. Works quickly at all tasks although I don't play games on it. One issue with the phone is to do with 4G - The phone doesn't use band 20 800mhz which is the frequency that O2 and Tesco use so on these networks you can't get 4G. Other networks use different frequencies so should pick up 4G ok. That being said I'm on O2 and my phone works fine using 3G and It's quicker than my friends phones that are using 4G so for me this hasn't been an issue. The battery last well for me and charges in a couple of hours which is ok as I charge it in the evening.

Great value for money
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

I wanted a 2nd mobile, predominantly as an MP3 and podcast player but also for my children to use for pokemon go. So far, I'm impressed.The specs on amazon were quite sparse, but the phone has 2gb of RAM and can handle playing pokemon and streaming music via Bluetooth simultaneously with no issues.I didn't expect it to have a fingerprint sensor, which is handy. It's placed on the back of the handset under the camera. I thought the placement was a bit odd to start as my other phone (a oneplus 3) has it below the screen, however it does allow easy one-handed unlocking with the index finger.Another bonus was that a case and screen protector were also in the box. I've not used it with a sim card yet, but it's dual sim which again can be a really useful feature for someone who had to carry both work and personal phones around.I was initially worried as the phone was very slow on setup and Google processes stalled a couple of times, however I think it was overloaded trying to download new software as well as synchronising my account. I'd not expect the processor to handle demanding games well. If you want a phone that can handle basic tasks then this could be a good choice.
