5An Excellent Phone
By S. Terry
This is an excellent phone but watch out for the build quality.I originally ordered one in mid-October as I was about to leave on an international trip and Verizons Intl roaming rates are ridiculous. It worked out well a $7 SIM from Claro plus some airtime at 5 cents per minute in country and about 50 cents per minute to USA, no data, but used the Wi-Fi at the hotel which worked great with this phone.I received it and was very pleased, here is what was most remarkable:1. The large Super AmoLED display is awesome, blacks are truly black, video looks great, text is very readable, and it does not wash out in sunlight although it is tougher to see and read than in normal light. I compared it under the same conditions to my iPod Touch 4, I could not see anything in bright sunlight with the iPod where on this phone when taking a picture I could see the subject well enough. The display alone alone is reason to buy this phone over other unlocked phones. You have to go to high end Samsung at >$600 to get this same feature.2. The Wi-Fi range is excellent and the Wireless signal quality seems quite good. Tried it with both AT&T and Claro.3. Has Android 4.0 which has many more features than Android 2.X which many inexpensive Android phones are still based on. The web browser with Android 4.0 is much better than the one with Android 2.X.4. All the misc sensors seem to work well, the accelerometer, the compass, the GPS, and the camera takes excellent picture and video although a bit noisy when it is a dark scene which is common for phone cameras. Did have a problem here though see below.5. Fast enough CPU. It seems responsive in all apps I tried including 3D games.6. Is lightweight and just the right size so you can feel comfortable carrying it in your pocket all day.I did have two problems though with my first unit first the battery seemed to drain quickly and if I took a photo that needed the built-in flash the unit just shutdown. After this shutdown I had to remove the battery to get it operating again. This repeated the next time I took a flash photo a few days later while away and this time it was even harder to get back up. Following this it would just shutdown for no obvious reason every few hours. Tried full battery charge, airplane mode, etc and still problematic. After returning from my trip I RMA'ed it as defective and quickly got the same model from Amazon.So far so good it is working great. I can take flash photos with no problems and the battery drain appears nominal.As far as what you should expect for battery life with both a Wi-Fi signal and a wireless signal it drains the battery in about 2 days even if you only use it minimally. To extend this disable one or the other radio except when needed and you will probably get 3-4 days. Using the phone for light activity seems to draw the battery at about 10% per hour. Talking is about the same. Playing a 3D game draws the battery at about 20% per hour. I am not sure if these numbers are good or bad it seems like everyone I know is charging there smart phones daily and this unit is no exception.Most people would remove a star or two for the problem I experienced with the initial phone but as an engineer I am aware that ALL electronic devices are subject to what is known as early failures, typically in the first few days of operation. This occurs at a rate of 1-5% depending on component and build quality. Used to be electronics were burned it at the manufacturer but no more it just costs too much to do even for the big (expensive) players. The phone like most is made in China but to the specs of Blu (supposedly an American company based in Miami) so I think they should work on component and or build quality even if it raises the price by $20.Before I bought the phone I read the other reviews which were also generally positive. The one reviewer mentioned a continuous repetitive background sound when using headphones, good sound was important to me as I use it as a music player also. Soon after getting it I tried it with three sets of headphones and no such issue. Again being an engineer this is typically caused by a bad capacitor in the audio output section allowing internal electrical noise to come though. To the other reviewer who had this problem just RMA the phone and get a new one. It is another example of a build quality issue and is not endemic of the phones design.So BOTTOM LINE THIS IS A GREAT PHONE for the price. If you purchase this phone though try out all the device features, camera with flash, other sensors, and try it with headphones as soon as you get it and if anything does not work right or causes a shutdown or other issues just RMA it and hopefully the next one will be fine. This is a nice advantage of using Amazon they do not give you hassles about returns or try to convince you a problem is not really a problem. This is particularly important in light of other reviewers (no personal experience) reporting that Blu has poor customer support. Hopefully they will improve this.BTW: There is no form fit case at this time for the phone. To protect it I bought a small thin lightly padded camera case at Sears that fit it well. Other small camera cases may also work but you have to try them so it makes it hard to order one online, like Shoes. This case is less convenient as when I get a call as it takes 10 seconds to get it out of the case but is better than nothing. Hopefully Blu will work with a case vendor or two to create a form fit case in the coming weeks and post on there web site the make and model of the case options.

5Get yourself a Blu Vivo RIGHT NOW !!!!
By ReneCib
OK, many things have been told abour Blu products, however after a LONG wait I've recieved my Vivo 4.3.I used to have a Samsung Galaxy SII, great phone, very useful, but due to business (I travel around the world very often) it's very important to me to have a dual simm phone for not to carry two phones.I looked for chinesse dual simm phones, but the most of them are cr@p, very cheap, but very low quality.Then I looked for a "branded" dual simm phone, and I found a Galaxy Y DUOS, good as all the samsung phones, however I needed more "power" in processor and a bigger screen, I use a lot the GPS and the screen and the processor of the Galaxy Y DUOS were a little "awful". I also use the phone for watching videos while traveling and the 240 x 320 pixels, 3.14 inches screen didn't help a lot.I found Blu company in one travel to Miami, I looked to their phones and I was about to buy the Blu Studio 5.3 but the reviews stoped me from doing that, the processor wasn't good and the screen resolution was not what you would spect from such a big phone.Then I read about the Vivo 4.3 specifications, and I really wanted to have one of them because the super amoled 4.3 480x800 screen, and the 1GHZ dual core processor.I recieved mine two weeks ago, and I'm really really happy with it, when unpacked is about the same size of the Samsung Galaxy SII, but lighter even with the battery installed, when turned on the screen responds fast and run the most of the apps almost inmediatly.I installed a 32 Gbytes micro SD and the phone went to its full potential.I downloaded Waze social navigator and NDrive GPS app and tested both, the response is FAST, just the way it should be when you are driving.Simm 1 carries the 3G, Simm 2 carries 2G only, so when I'm in my country (Mexico) my first simm is the local carrier (Telcel) when I'm abroad I switch the simm for the local carrier, I was in USA last week and used a H20 simm card for data and voice and worked as spected.Next week I'll go to Europe and I will try it with Movistar in Spain and Orange in France, I will let you know how it goes.What I didn't like was the horrible start screen, and the theme that Blu is using in the interface, I found it very anoying. However I installed SPB Mobile Shell and the experience was much much better.I'm strugling with the phone ring tones, but I'm sure I will find how to change them soon.I'm happy with the phone, so far I haven't found any thing that dislike me.My advice..... because of the price and the performance.... get your Vivo 4.3, you will not regret.,

5Perfect dual-SIM
By Dave BH
I often need dual-SIM for travels and it saves me from carrying two phones around.Before this model, dual-SIMs were only quite simplified phones with budget specs, but here we see implementation of two SIMs working simultaneously plus iPhone level of functionality. Actually, I planned to buy dual Sims phone + iPhone 5, but surprisingly found that is not necessary.Android platform is mature already and hardware of Blu works as expected. All necessary software for practical life (text and excel editors) is there, lot of applications are available online (and free of charge). I've spent 1000 $ for iPad applications and can't see real advantages of that over similar applications on Android. As always, some specialized software might be better on other platform, but I don't use smartphone for that.This is a hell lot of smartphone packed in black elegant exterior and don't worry, it is not inferior product, I'm happy to put it against any competitor.Finally, something I've searched for years and it would be excellent buy even at double price.Verdict: must have for people who don't accept compromise and don't buy into marketing hypes (I'm satisfied to be in non iPhone campus at moment).
