BLU R1 Plus - User Reviews

  • Blu makes good phones. They are well built, but just remember you are not buying a flagship phone. I purchased the Blu Life One x2 for my daughter. It has done it's duty. Battery, performance, and camera work just fine. If you are tight on cash, you can't go wrong.

  • please how good is blue phones I'm scared of buying it and how's the camera?

  • Anyone know how well the gyroscope works for VR? Thanks!

  • I put the Sim card from my old Blu phone in this new one and the new one does not recognize the Sim card!! Any ideas out there?

  • This phone is AMAZING for the price. It's super fast with 3GB RAM. This is my first 6.0 Android Marshmallow device and I find the interface seamless. 4000mAh battery is some of the best life you'll find on a phone, even in higher price price ranges I have found. GREAT BUY!

  • what do you mean with that??? im asking because your statement makes no sense to me.

  • I've owned this phone for a month now and I haven't had any problems with it. Just like the r1 hd which I also had no problems with even though it was only 16gb I myself think that for mediatek phones the blu r1 hd and r1 plus are great phones for their prices

  • Phone too good for you

  • what about the battery performance, it last more than 6 hours screen on time?

  • I own the phone. Works as a normal flagship would in terms of speed.

  • can you please tell me in terms of speed, and performance if this phone worth the hard earn cash?

  • yes, me too, shall i remove this plastic and avoid this problem, how about mms if i send text pic,are u okay?

  • With the last update, last with, the multitouch problem is OK.

  • yh all cheap Blu phones got that problem once it got the screen protector on

  • im not buying anything with nougat "planned" until they actually do it x.x

  • Lots of bad reviews on Amazon about multitouch issues with this phone...

  • I'm waiting to get pay to buy this phone, is the best phone out there right now, the Motorola moto g5 is $300 and is to much for me, now $160 for the 32Gb and 3RAM is good.

  • Blu team has already announced that the Nougat update will be soon, you shout buy it!

  • I mean, if the update gets up im probably going to buy it beacuse is one of the cheapest devices with gyroscope and 3 gb ram, but update through.
