Beautiful, functional, and a BEAST. There are a few tiny issues tho.....
The media could not be loaded. First I would like to say that this is my second BLU phone. I bought a BLU energy phone a few years ago, and was very happy with it.Second this my friends, is an absolutely awesome device. The screen quality is very good, and just the right size to be big but not TOO big. Blacks are black, colors are bright and vibrant. Impressive for an LCD screen.There is NO Bloatware on this device. Basically stock Android 10. Very refreshing to see a company not install useless apps.Third this thing can game. I place several games, one of them being real racing 3 which has brought a few of my other phones to their knees. This phone handles it no problem.Fourth, the fingerprint sensor works very well. Although there is only one down firing speaker, it gets very loud. They included case, and screen protector are just bonuses. This phone looks and feels absolutely premium.I have been a fan of BLU for a long time. I didn't need another gaming phone as I have one of the best in the world, (ROG Phone) however because I support BLU and what they're doing, I bought this and I'm very pleased with my purchase. To be honest, I am actually using this as my daily device because of the huge battery and larger screen.Folks, this is their flagship phone. And for around $200 there is absolutely no reason not to give this phone a try. You will be pleased, just as I am. Another nice thing about this phone is it is not only dual sim, but has expandable storage. It comes with 128gb standard, plus I added a 128 GB SD Card for 256 gigs of space.I use this phone on the straight talk program from Walmart and it works flawlessly. 4G LTE all day and all night. Bluetooth works awesome, wireless charging is amazing and the fact that it comes with everything you need out of the box makes this a must have for any game or on a budget.There are a few “meh” things to keep in mind: The screen is not Gorilla Glass. There is a tempered glass screen protector, however. Use it. The included charger is not that quick. It takes well over two hours to fully charge the battery from 30 percent to max. The battery while large, doesn’t last as long as I had hoped. It does the job and gets me through two days of moderate usage, but I did expect slightly better. There is also a slight lag each time you turn on the device. It seems to take about three seconds for the phone to become usable. It does work beautifully after that time passes.Thank you for your time and I really hope you will consider making this your next gaming phone.

Super impressive for the price
I destroyed my previous phone, a $800 "flagship" LGV40 in a pool accident (turns out "waterproof" isn't really waterproof) and bought this as a stopgap while I waited for the next line of flagship phones to drop.I'll be waiting for a while, because this phone is super nice and compares nicely to flagship phones costing 3x or 4x as much.RAM is 4GB and it's plenty and while I'm not sure what the CPU is, the phone is very speedy. The OS is really fast and even pretty intense games run fine. I have the 128GB version so that's nice and you can put in a mciro SD card if you need more space.It's basically stock android and I did miss and need to d/l replacements for a few apps that LG includes -- I got a new gallery app and a notes app that syncs with google.Battery life is fantastic so far. I don't usually charge overnight, just in the car to and from work (about 30 minutes each way) and I've found no issues.Camera is really solid -- maybe not quite up to the LG V 20, but better than the V 40. It's not as good as a top Pixel or iPhone, but the 16 MP lens is surprisingly good. The only issue I've had is there's no way to manually focus the camera which means when trying to take a picture of something small and close (like a spider in a web), it can be hard to keep the phone from focusing on the wrong thing (like a leaf). This is a minor quibble. I like a good camera and I am really pleasantly surprised here, especially as some of the older Blu phones struggled here. There are 3 lenses, but one is for night shots (works very well) and one is a simple 5MP lens for portrait mode.I got the blue version and I really like the shiny, oceany aesthetic (my wife thinks the charging cable looks like a minnow -- it's shiny silver). I realize this may not be eveyone's cup of tea.Screen is 720 x 15??. I mean, it's an HD screen that's six inches diagonal, it looks great. iOS phones and top Androids have higher resolution, but I'm not sure what for, My wife has an XR and I feel this basically looks as good.I guess the phone doesn't have NFC for tap-to-pay and I'm not sure if it supports wireless charging. I don't do either of those things so not an issue for me.What it does have is a 3.5mm headphone jack which is awesome. I have Blutooth headphones, but I like the option to go old-school when needed.It came with all the expected Blu extras -- a case, a screen protector (you need to install it yourself), headphones, and a charger. The case is fine, but it's not an otterbox. I didn't put on the screen protector because it has gorilla glass, but I probably will eventually.Overall I have fallen in love with this phone. I expected it to be good, but now I'm planning to keep it until it dies. Really a great job by Blu on this one.
