Title: Perfect for what I needed it for!
Review: Perfect for what I needed it for! For some reason (that makes no sense to my brother haha), I wanted to keep my old South FL home phone number. It originally went from a Landline, to Vonage, then to Ooma for 20 years. I switched to the free plan for Ooma (only playing taxes which came out to like $5+ a month). I then decided to take the journey to port it from Ooma to Google Voice. After about 16 days it finally ported over to Ting! Which led me to this phone.I cam looking on Amazon for a cheap unlocked GSM phone to use with Ting. This fit the bill. Decided to take a shot and it did what I needed. Took a little while with some searching on Amazon to figure out the thing cause the directions are pretty worthless. Used a nail clipper (I have no fingernails haha) to pry it open. To do that on the bottom right (as in my 2nd pic) just pry in the groove there and it'll come apart eventually. You'll prob have to work around it to get it all off. Then after figuring the right position for the sim card (last pic) got that going. I first tried the top part thinking that's where it goes, but it has to go all the way down. It works with Ting just fine! They got great customer service by the way. This was the cheapest way for me to port the number. I took a picture of the way the battery goes. It only goes in one way. I saw another question about using the flashlight, to do that you can access it from the menu or long pressing the 0 button that has the icon. To turn it on you long press the Phone icon on the right with the slash through it (and very little power icon I just noticed).Volume sounds really loud. Can't comment on battery since I've only taken one call so far to verify my number with Google Voice. This phone screams perfect for kids to stay in touch with their parents. I think I'll keep it as a backup phone and one to travel with (if that ever starts happening again) abroad. Overall outside of the lackluster instructions, it seems like a great phone for what it is.

Title: junk junk and more junk
Review: not only is it so tiny , upon arrival came with no instruction but a tiny pc of paper you can hardly read, the sim instructions pic on back of phone was so confusing, if u try to place it in back as pictured it would be backwards. No matter how or which way I placed sim card it kept saying insert sim card? my guess is made in China and someone was high on something when thy designed this phone. big waste of time so wanna buy made in America from now on. bought to china phones with same issues

Title: Conveniently pocket sized
Review: A simple no frills telephone for my 86 year old father who is not that tech savvy and doesn't want or need all of the bells and whistles of a smart phone. Paired with a 100 minute a month plan from Tello although I seriously doubt he will ever use 1/5 of that time. Earpiece volume is comfortable for him even without his hearing aid. I may downgrade, tech-wise, if my heavy and bulky smartphone dies.

Title: Epic fail
Review: I put in the battery and put on charger for 24 hours as directions stated, then inserted sim card. The battery never charged and the phone would not turn on. No functions worked at all. Total waste of money. Don't bother!

Title: Cool little phone
Review: It’s a cool little basic phone. But, with a tmobile SIM card this phone has almost no connectivity anywhere my iPhone has it on the same network.

Title: small sized, good quality, battery life and features at the price
Review: I bought this phone as an additional one as I wanted to keep my international number active to receive OTP, and it works great for the purpose. It can read sim from other country and work with local network.Phone came with some default language I dont understand but it was easy to switch to English.By going to Phone setting(based on image-spanner and bolts and option 2 from there) This would be challenging for most as default language is not english for this phone.Writing this review on 3rd day of use, still battery lasts and showing more but I am not using it for phone calls/just SMS.It has VGA camera, dual sim, external memory card slots(none of them i used yet).Phone is must buy for the price and if looking for calling/SMS purpose at this time.

Title: BLU is best
Review: Had top of the line phones from Samsung, moto, so many others and Blu.....well two Blu phones were more dependable, reliable, durable, and worth every penny spent. One took a dive in a toilet, discovered five minutes later, towel dried and still working ..that was four years ago.

Title: You get what you pay for: difficult UX, no vibration for notification, very poor reception.
Review: It's inexpensive and durable enough but it doesn't really work for our intentions. We wanted a non-smartphone for the kids to have if they were over at a friend's house or in case of emergency.It struggles to maintain a signal, so texting and calls frequently fail or don't arrive at all. The carrier SIM works reliably in other devices so I don't think it's a coverage issue.Other frustrations are that it's hard to navigate the menus: sound settings are buried - though the only options are effectively loud or silent. (No vibration at all)The radio works. There are even a couple games - if you can find them in the menu system. There is also a dedicated flashlight button. The camera is what you would expect on a $20-30 feature phone. But for a reliable communication device, this isn't it.

Review: I cannot comment on the product itself however it's a cute phone, convenient size as well. Found out after receiving the item that it was the Network capabilities on the device were not suitable for my region. The seller was quick to respond to my query and worked with me to resolve the issue. Excellent customer service!
