BLU Studio 5.0 - User Reviews

  • I got mine in 2014 because I was attracted to the low price. While it lasted, it was a decent budget phone: nowhere near flagship specs, but it did its job (telephone, music player, Internet device). But the camera was mediocre, like something you'd expect from an old flip phone, and was too blurry to take pictures of text or scan a QR code. Fortunately I rarely take pictures with my phone, so it was something I could live with. However, the phone quickly began showing its age after only 1 year. One day the power button jammed permanently, and ever since the phone would wake by itself occasionally. It even once called 911 in my pocket, because the screen came on and my leg pressed "Emergency Call". After that I had to make sure the screen faced out when the phone was in my pocket. The speaker also got horrible buzzing, making it unusable at any volume above half. The poor thing finally nailed its own coffin when the screen froze and turned white one day. Pulling the battery did not help; my phone was now dead in less than 2 years of use. In short, you get what you pay for, and the Blu Studio 5.0 is proof of that. I do not recommend this phone to anyone, especially since there are budget models from the well-known brands that will last much longer.

  • Ugly emojis, YouTube videos freeze too much, especially when the viewers just want to skip to the near end, and Yahoo answers scroll back up on top. This service is extremely useless and should shut down forever and ever and ever. Whoever runs this pathetic phone should resign permanently in tears.

  • Yes, it has limitations but it's cheap like borsche. For about $14 you can buy a storage card at WalMart and apps are cheap. I only paid about $80 for mine. It's a great starter phone for kids and seniors.

  • The phone is clear and sharp, but there is a fault on my device now.It will be on and not boost on.Where can I get it repaired

  • From what I've seen android shares its operating system with its storage so if phone has 8 gig and os takes say 3 gig your left with 5 gig storage , why did you buy the phone did you not check the secs? Put in a micro SD card and move internal storage to that just check what max size SD card you can use.

  • well i have the blu studio g phone. and well im about to smash that damn phone.. this phone only had 4.00 internal storage,, and u can only download s many apps then all u get is that insufficent storage telling u to delete apps u dont use any more.. and thats ucks, i use every app i dl on phone... so yeah the blu studio g 5.0 sucks!!!!! not enough internal storage space on it!!!!

  • After an update was done. both sim card stop working . saying no service. Can't received or send out call. Needed help

  • so true about this blu phone. can't get nothing done now I can't even type my messages keyboard not coming up

  • After you take a pic ,tap on three bars icon in top right hand corner and it will offer you the delete as well as many other options CHEERS!!

  • So my blu studio c5+5 was working until I reboot my phone... Sim2 just disappear... I'm not seeing or able to use sim2... Why is that??? I really love my phone because I'm able to use both cards but now... Ohhh boy!!! Not on happy camper right now

  • Every time I play a game it get cut off. Sometimes in the middle of the game. Why is that? Steups

  • I hate them the blue cell is trash you cannot depen on it. It doesn't hold a charge and get hot i think they need to take them off the markit before something bad hapen.

  • I got one. I love mine. I have cricket service. They sent me a free cricket phone. I didn't like it. It was cheap,screen small,and no flash. But my blu has all the features I want in a phone. I think it takes great pics. I got the small sim card I got it to work. U have to match the electrodes up. It works fine. The only thing that it does is drops signal every now and then. It does freeze sometimes. But so did my older phone that was the same android operating system. But since I got the new sim card it sped up a little. I'm not sure if its on 4g.but regardless I love my phone.

  • I was gifted one such phone. The life time is about one year. It could be less too. Mine lasted one year. Don't waste your money on BLU. They are bold enough to stop working when you most need its use. The motherboard for mine is damaged and I was advised by to buy a new phone but not a BLU. Be advised.

  • I will never purchase a BLU again. Piss poor...inadequate storage and the list goes on. I'm disappointed, to say the least.

  • freezes a lot for me.

  • I'm so disappointed in this phones can't download load any app it keeps saying storage full or delete some app when I may only have one. When you slide it it spine's so fast . deleted E mail it just returns next day very disappointed it take it to store o u hot to this got to do that and it never works any better.

  • For slot 2 u have to use big sim neither micro or nano

  • I cannot activate slot 2 on this phone. Can anyone help?

  • I got d blu 5.0 phone and have being having problem of stoping unwanted download of porn apps,this apps always display asking for download seriously am feedup,I reset more than three times but d problem still persists.

  • Would not recommend for T-mobile users. I used to have an iphone 5c, and the signal for T-mobile was OK. Now that I have the BLUE 5.0, the signal is so low it is practically non-existent. I cannot even make local calls from my home because it cuts in and out. I have a far better signal using my landline phone. The camera is an embarrassment - the one thing I use my phone camera for is for photographing important documents, this camera is so poor that it cannot capture text detail, even when I fiddle with the settings. I have tried to download music onto this phone using the Android Transfer program for Mac, but it won't recognize this device. I will have to look into this. Thus far, I am not impressed. I wonder if this phone is compatible with Verizon? Perhaps I will have a better signal with them? We shall see... :/

  • Hell no. I used to be able to take photos of documents using my iphone 5c - you could see every detail, no problem. In comparison, the BLUE 5.0 photographs documents with such poor quality that they are illegible.

  • Does this phone take good pictures?

  • usually when using dual sim devices , only 1 sim can access data

  • i update my blu studio 5 to 6 then it told me that it failed then told me to reboot when i did that it just stayed that wayi have tried every thing even factory reseat plz anyone

  • If you are using Google Chrome and/or Google app products, Kit Kat 4.4 forces the metadata into the phone's internal memory. If you bother looking at the storage data stats, you'll see most of it is Maps data,Drive, and Chrome. Its kit kat, not the phone, as you have noticed it won't allow you to move the data to your SD card. And you can't upgrade to newer android versions, so there's no easy fix. I deleted the resident browser and installed Firefox, but once you attempt ANY search or function that uses Google, it will eventually max out the internal memory in a couple of days. Again, it's not the phone but how Kit Kat 4.4 works. The only option in to upgrade to a newer phone with new Android software.

  • I have the BLU studio 5.0 the problem is, when I use sim 1 as the data sim...sim 2 will not connect. when I use sim 2 as the data sim...sim 1 will not work.

  • Advance 5.0

  • Please the phone screen just went blank, was not dropped. This is a repeat as it has behaved the same way previously, all I did was to remove the battery and restart and it was ok. Today, I was using WhatsApp when the screen just "died", ItÂ’s so frustrating. Anyone out there who can help me out, please do. Thanks

  • I have a problem getting my Blu 5.0 XL phone formatting and clear all data s because of having low phone storage caution, i even delete all the internal files but still cant clear any space any one with same problem and can help and to be honest i really regret buying this shit >:( >:@ x( :-||

  • I agree the worst phone ever. Camera people can't hear me. It doesn't ring loud. Internet a mess

  • It's quite simple to take a picture on this phone. What issues are you having because 'camera' should be an application instantly installed in your phone ?

  • how to take a picture

  • My phone just shuts off when its ready and reboots by itself.

  • I got my Blu Studio 5.0 in Dec 2013. Got 2 years and six months of great service from this phone. Which I considered great for a low priced phone. My screen just keep on having running horizontal lines whenever I press the. volume up and down buttons. Did a factory reset but that didn't stop the problem. I still considered this phone a great one, got spectacular service for the 2 years and 6 months whilst it worked. Big up Blu Studio 5.0

  • I had this phone because my old phone broke. This is the worst phone I ever recived.

  • How do you delete a phone contact from your list on this phone? Blu 5.0

  • It stinks to say it nicely. It overheated from day one. Temp goes up to 154. No running aps. I check everything every morning. Also phone boost. Checked everything as far as data as per customer service. I try to get on Internet. Well it says oops. I can't look up things 99% of time. Wiped out my messanger for Facebook. Finally was able to download it two weeks later. Can't send message anymore. Phone calls stink. Fuzzy connection. Camera stinks. They want me to do a factory reset for last resort to find out if it's the phone. I want a new phone. Only phone I have. On no they say, I have to return this one and then get another one. Hello even Verizon sends phone first to help customer out first. BLU STINKS. WHEN I CAN AFFORD ANOTHER PHONE, I'M GETTING MY SLUDGE HAMMER OUT AND BREAKING THIS ONE IN PIECES. I'LL BE SHARING THIS INCIDENT ON FACEBOOK PUBLIC.

  • I have two phones the volume has gone out in both of them. call the company for help what a nightmare. now I need another phone would not recommend this product to anyone.

  • I'm having the same challenge. Need some help

  • How do I fix my blu 5.0mega phone when it won't let you do anything it won't let you even put in your password or nothing 😢😢😢&#128­546;😢 someone tell me please😢😢😢&am­p;#128546;

  • How do I block a number that keeps calling me on a Net10 BLU Studio 5.0 Cell Phone cause it keeps calling me and doesn't leave a voicemail and I know it a scam number. Can u please help me. Thank u very much.

  • It does not require two sim cards. You gave the option to use the second slot if you want two numbers routing into one phone. The memory is low, by I got around this by buying a memory card and moving as many applications to the card. I also made the card the default for pictures and videos. With thus, the low storage is no longer an issue for me.

  • I have a blu phone and here are a few bugs. 1. This phone has really low storage like really low. 2. The volume for the media is low, you can barely hear it all the way. 3. And this phone requires 2 Sim cards? Does that make any sense ? So please if you are getting a blu 5.0 phone please take a minute to think about what your about to buy

  • Blu phone has windows. Does not work well with AT&T appts, internet loads slow, or goes down in the middle. Worse phone ever used. Disappointed. Good phone for children under 14. Worry if a shutdown us constant. Adult and older teens get annoyed, angry, and flustered.

  • I bought a Blu Studio G at Target for $100 to use in Brazil. (I will be here for four months.) Turns out that, although it is sold as a 4G phone, I can only get 2G here. Have spent hours talking to Blu and the four large cell phone providers here. There is no fix. So beware if you are planing to buy a Brazilian SIM card and use the Studio G in Brazil.

  • Bought a Blu Studio 5.0 about a month ago off of amazon. Works fine 99% of the time, but whenever I am in a call, the other party cannot hear me. I've made sure the phone isn't muted, that I have a strong signal. I've tested it with wifi calls/data calls. I've tried being the receiver and the caller. The other person can never hear me yet I can hear them. Very, very frustrating seeing as it is a PHONE.

I can assign a different ring tone, but my kids text me 98% of the time. My last phone was a great little Samsung messaging phone (not a smart phone) and I could assign different ringtones to each person in my family and I loved that function. Hopefully this is a function that I haven't yet found on this phone, but if it isn't, please make this part of the next update on this phone.

  • It is good it is just that sometimes you may need practice what do u not like about it.

  • Well your SIM card does not give you memory, it is the chip your phone service provider has provided your phone to communicate all of their info into the phone (this is a very basic explanation). SD cards are what provide memory. If you insterted a new SIM card into your phone that has not been given to you by your Phone Service Provider your phone will not have service. The second you take out your original SIM card your phone stopped being a phone.

  • I totally agree mine has been a great phone almost 1.5 years no problems what so ever then i dropped it face down on a marble floor to my surpise no leakage and the phone is till going fine. i am gonna upgrade to another blue only because the crack drives me crazy mercedes or for escort you get a problem with them i own both. do your research great for the money compared to samsung and they both do the same thing for about 450.00 less the blue of course is the better price 750.00 vs 250 huge difference when they both do the same thing1

  • If he is using it on straight talk, it's tricky to get the apn settings right. Once correct, however, he will be able to get MMS messages

  • No you can block the number by going to your contacts and clicking on the contact pushing the more option button next your home screen button and yu should see block incoming calls there and it will block incoming call only thing yu still get text but they dont notify you like it does it was unblocked it doesn't ring or make a sound

  • The phone memory can't be edited but you can he an sd card and put it in and then move apps and stuff to your phone.

  • Hi a sim card is for service not memory. If you need more memory, you will need a mini SD card, not a sim. Why your phone was showing no service was because that second sim was not activted on a carrier

  • Can you upgrade the memory on the studio 5.0? I love the phone just need more memory. If anyone knows please let me know how asap.

  • How do I save a current text conversation to my SIM card?

  • I had the blu 5.0 hd for only one week. I my sim card in, no problem. Then it said I needed more memory. So I bought another sim card. As soon as I inserted the card, the phone said no service, only emergency calls. I reset the phone, put my original sim card in and the same thing. What is going on? They have some good reviews, I did my research and now I'm sorry I bought and am returning it. Is there something else I should have done? Not satisfied!

  • It wont let me video call anyone... Wtf

Definitely very Disappointed.

  • The dialer on my BLU Studio 5.0 LTE crashes too when dialing a number using the keypad. I also called customer support. They were friendly but the wait was long and they suggested a hard restart which erases the entire phone. The trick to the dialer, while annoying, dial the first two digits and wait until they come up before dialing the rest. The first digit comes up right away but for whatever reason the second digit takes a WHILE. Once it comes up you can usually enter the rest of the number normally. This dialer should be forced on telemarketers! It is really annoying when the phones biggest problem is a very basic phone function. The phone is a few months old now but the problem started when it was new. I didn't notice it for a few days or a week but don't think I had to really dial to many numbers. They were returned phone calls or calls through the phone book. While I haven't solved the problem or done a hard restart, I doubt that or a new phone will fix the problem. Could be a defective phone but I'm betting it's software. Wish my phone was better at phoning than gadgeting.

  • I had my blue 5.0 for a while now and now suddenly when i tried to upload a photo on instagram it kept saying can't connect to camera then when i went to the camera it started saying the same thing

  • you could start by learning the English language, that might help lol den ur fone mite werk rite.

  • I make calls can't hear the dialing or the person on the other side but the person can hear me anybody knows what the problem is.

  • I just hold the space bar until a black pops up saying choose input method. Then u can choose the regular android key board or the emoji keyboard. Hope this works for you. Good luck. 😀

  • I like my phone a lot but I do not like Blu tech support, rating is for support not the phone. From day one my phone has had a problem with the Dialer software stopping when I am attempting to dial a number. I contacted tech support regarding this issue and was told that I need to factory reset my phone as step one troubleshooting technique; unacceptable it took 16 hours to setup all the custom apps on my phone and I am not willing to do that all over again, I have had the phone for only 18 days. There has to be a better way to trouble shoot this phone other then resorting to what should be a last option; ditch effort. Tech support was rude, and unhelpful; I feel much worse after speaking to them, and feel they should try to support their customers and product better. I also found similar complaints for the same error when I attempted to research this issue on my own, but know one seems to have a solution. Again this only happens when trying to dial a number using the V-Keypad (Virtual-Keypad). I can make phone calls from my phone book just fine, only happens when dialing a number from the keypad and usually happens after the second number is input. Concerned Customer

  • Have had this phone for 3months now. The first three weeks were great (after the warranty expired) then it started slowing down, loading apps slower and slower. Had a few recent updates lately and now nothing with open. Tried a factory reset deleted all my apps, (thinking virus) and the problem only got worse. Now all processes stop when I open them, and I have to rebot constantly to get my calls or msgs. Most of the time now the phone gets stuck on the opening "Blu" screen, in which I am forced to remove battery to reboot. Very fusturating! Don't know what's going on, wish there are techies out there that can help, PLEASE. Blu website support site dosent even work! please help. It constantly says "process.accore..."something "has stopped" then it repeats it through the whole background processes, stopping a restarting over and over... Frustrating . Help please, I really have enjoyed this phone and want it to enjoy it longer that three months:-(

Something GB and I'm planing on getting the one with 16 GB, I currently can't take any photos or anything like that because I don't have enough space but I think you should ask at your local best buy or somewhere where they sell these phones about tour problem just in case.

  • If you can still return it DIO IT NOW! This is a company that makes horrible cell phones, and has even worse service. If you are unlucky enough to reach someone there they will lie to you and steal the phone you sent back for repair. NOT KIDDING! Spend a little more and get one from a reputable ccompany.

  • BLU cell phones and the company reps are a wart on the rump of man kind. I have been through 3 in less than nine months. They sent the last one WITHOUT a back. I know the warranty repair guy did it on purpose. We spoke a few times and he is a horses rump! NEVER buy from this company. BAD phones and even worse service!

  • How do I screenshot on the blue studio 5.0

Had to hold the power button down just to get the screen to light back up and when I finally got it to unlock it wouldn't stop saying 'launcher has stopped' or something repeatedly I couldn't get to any apps cause the message kept coming back, so I turned phone off and back on a few minutes later and it did the same thing. Rebooted phone as well and am still getting same problem.

  • I just got this phone like 3 days ago, its not bad but I have already have concerns about it. First it would let me download any more songs, and second I can't take pictures, and I've only took about 25 pictures so far. Please help!? :/ :( :)

  • I absolutely love me Blue Studio..... Everything works great. I'm able to download apps, movies, watch live t.v through my Comcast service with no problem! Only thing is I have dropped my phone & cracked my screen & debating if I should get it fix or purchase the new FIRE phone :-)

  • It is not a SIMS card it is a SIM card. No "S" it is not connected to SIMS computer games. Get it right!

  • I took mine to AT&T company store, new SIM in minutes, no charge.

  • Different phone, same company. Probably a good cheap phone, if there were ANY useful instructions. The enclosed manual (also available online) has specs and ad stuff, NOTHING USEFUL. Phone defaults to Spanish (main market?), trial and error just to get English. And I had no idea how I got there. Support is lame, a manual promised, none provided, then "what did you expect?" Support really said that! Again, some instructions? Maybe better on different models or in Spanish, not acceptable to me. One final word: Samsung.

  • My device has been glitching a lot lately. Has this been happening to anyone else?

  • Take it to your phone carrier and they will adjust the settings just tell them that your phone won't send or receive them and they'll fix it right away! :) I just got mine fixed and now I'm sending and receiving them fine

  • This phone can't receive pictures when you're in normal text why and can someone help me

  • This phone is literally a P.O.S. but what do expect you get what you pay for. Can't download any apps due to it saying storage is running low. The screen starts flickering like it wants to black out. Lags so badly. Battery life is NOT what the specs state. But as I said previously you get what you pay for....

  • After the headphones that came with the phone broke, I went and bought more. One time it was iPhone headphones and another time was just some Walgreen headphones but only the left earbud works! Every pair of headphones I've bought only the left one worked and it wasn't the headphones because they worked in other phones. Does anyone know Why? Or a certain type of headphones I have to use to make both earbuds work?

All our needs differs and no manufactuer will make the phone to meet our needs! So please stop the complaining. I bought my Studio 5.5 in the US and uses it in the UK. Never heard of Blu previously but the price was right! I have no complaints! It on par with the expenses phones on the market which after a short while is obsolete! Unless my phone can make my tea or a meal, I absoluetely refuses to pay the exorbiant prices bing ask for some of these phones! I LOVE MY PHONE.I should state however, that I realy send pictures or download as i carry out these tasks on my Laptop/tablet! Have a good day and smile!

  • Did you find out what to do about your phone? Mine is doing the same thing; it will not power on after onew week of having my phone!

  • Perhaps you were one of the very blessed ones that got a good phone. I have had my phone for one week and it refuses to charge. IT is dead, and nothing I can do but try to get the company that makes it exchange it or find out what is wrong with mine. So happy you got a good one! I loved the phone but not if it won't work.

  • I cannot connect to my pc because it is dead. It must be the battery is no good but after one week of use, the battery is bad? This phone is NOT impressing me! I am losing potential clients everyday my phone is down.

  • I recently bought a Blu Studio 5.0 and received it on June 26,2014. One week later it stops charging and will not come on. I contacted Walmart.com where I bought it with an extended warranty but Walmart says I must go to manufacturer because their warranty is valid for one year. Manufacturer says my imei number does not show up in their system! I am so frustrated with the company that makes this phone!!! It seems I am out the 129.47 I spent.

  • please check, this product possesses no 3G. Thanks

  • My charger wont charge my screen wont let me touch certain parts of it and it.keeps click thjngs on its own it started with my keybord not working and led into.other problems. Why?

  • Help when I connect my blue 5.0 yo my lap top it does not show up on my computer.

  • You can safely root the device fusing 2 options : KingoRoot (made by XDA devs. Must use your pc); or Framaroot.apk (can find it on XDA or google) when you launch the app, select boromir method and enjoy. I couldn't find kingo root on XDA, one of the devs pm'd the program name to me. I found the website using google. I'm not sure what problem you think rooting will fix. But, this phone has many issues and for the sake of your own sanity, do not install a custom recovery. Their are no custom roms fully supported for it anyway. so why cause yourself more heartache? I regret not saving for a better phone. It almost never succeeds writing to my sd card. The internal memory is disgustingly small. Pictures I take only render halfway or less. Sometimes pics work for a while but the next day we're back to half pics. Got it right before a vacation. Took tons of pictures with it. All lost. Dozens of memories gone forever. Customer service sucks. One reply per day of you're lucky. They will restore your phone for a small fee if you do manage to screw it up beyond your own abilities to repair it. If it's not already too late, don't buy this phone. A flip phone and a cheap '97 laptop would save you a ton of trouble versus getting this phone. /rantOff

  • Most of the problems we all have with this phone, can be solved if we connect it to a pc. Empty trash, memory storage etc. The screenproblem is solved, if you use the powerbutton before answering or talking on the phone. After using the phone, just lock te screen. The screen is sensitive and that helps us to scroll faster and easier. Every problem has a solution. We just make things difficult for ourselve sometimes. I have mine almost a year. In the beginning I had all of these problems. But I got to know my phone much better so now I'm enjoying it. No problems anymore

  • This is a $130 phone, and I am well pleased with it for the low price. I did not need a contract with a cell company for that price, bought it straight from Amazon. Yes, it has only 512mb of internal storage, but that was easily fixed with a root and an SD card partition. I can put all the apps on it I want and I never have low memory issues. I get about 3 days standby time on the battery, but I also use an app that controls when/how the wifi and cell data are used. An hour phone convo will use about 15% of battery life, so I should have maybe 5 hours talk time on average. It only has 3G capabilities, not 4G, but I don't have an issue with that, I can still view youtube, etc just fine. If you know nothing about tweaking android, and are used to iOS doing everything for you, than this may not be the phone for you. Root it, expand your internal memory into an SD card partition, and get an app that controls when data usage can be used by the phone and it will be fine. I have had this for 6 months so far, and it has been worth every penny!

  • I have the Studio 5.0 and my battery life sucks, It says storage low but i barely have anything downloaded, and my picture message stopped working. THIS PHONE IS TERRIBLE!!!!!

  • I have tons of SD memory but the apps seem to only store in internal memory which is limited

  • So isn't there a way to expand memory by partitioning the SD or a firmware upgrade or something???!!!

  • It's a HORRIBLE phone. I traded my Iphone 4 for this and instantly regret it. The battery life is terrible and takes FOREVER to charge. The picture quality sucks. The flash on both front and back are pointless. It always says my storage is full and I barely have anything downloaded. Literally the only good thing about it, is that it has a big screen.

  • I stand firm with your comment brother my charger port has been fixed twice and now my problem is that after it was working fine my screen wont come on anymorethis phone is garbage totally all around the board I spent $320 including monthly payments what a waste of money and if anyone have a problem like the corporate offices of Blu studio you can email me at [email protected]. how accept all inside parts but I definitely need charger port circuit board and from there I'll try my best not too let it drop wow the phone is charging

  • I purchased this phone for use in Ireland. I put a # prepaid card in it for data and some calls. Only picked up edge if anything while traveling. Wifi worked good as well as camera. Phone calls all worked. But the whole point was data for maps and such. This phone did not work. Took sim card out and put it in another phone and it worked fine. Not real happy but it kinda served its purpose as a camera.

The charger port is also weak I thought it was just my phone but my cousins has failed also.DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE.

  • Got phone in December, works great. Got 2nd SIM card so I could dump Verizon cellphone and now the phone won't work on 3G without going through a MiFi (Verizon). I haven't used up my data quota because I bought more MB on Feb. 13th, but it won't work on SIM card 2 since I put SIM card 1 in the phone. It does recognize the Verizon MiFi even though the tech told me it doesn't. I didn't change the password, either. I spent two hours on my house phone with a technician and they couldn't get it straightened out. Probably more minutes to use tomorrow to see if they can talk me through the glitch. I love the phone otherwise and it isn't really a hassle using the MiFi.

  • It wont let me give contacts different ring tones

  • how do you screenshot? nothing i have tried works.

  • How do u screen shot

  • This phone is fantastic!!! I recommend side button is hard to push but other than that its just like my old phone I had just great and big too!!! Love love it!!! Go buy it these reviews are lying its not a bad phone

  • Not a bad phone for the price. Keep in mind that this phone costs less than $150 so do not expect too much. Low memory, 2 GB usable, so you have to choose your apps wisely. You have to store all of your media on the memory card and delete text messages often. If you are a heavy user who likes their apps, I do not suggest this phone. If you are an old hand with smart phones and do not use a lot of apps this phone is great.

  • I brought this phone a few days ago and I'm using airvoice wireless with it and it works just fine as in texting with picture messages and the web works just fine so I can say its a good phone

  • its a good phone for the money, but overall not too great of a phone. I would not have bought it if i had read up on it first. You cant send pics, storage sucks i have literally 3 apps on it and more music but it constantly tells me im out of phone storage. also, its a really big phone not too comfortable to use all the time. I do not recommend buying this phone.

  • I've had this phone about two months, its a great phone for the price. Don't expect too much from it though. You get what you pay for. Not saying its bad at all, buy just because its modeled after the Samsung Galaxy doesn't mean it will perform like one. Not bad at all for the price.

  • 13 hours is not that bad when it comes to smart phone but you should still talk to tech support if you are concerned with your battery life. Their email address is [email protected]

  • You need to setup the APN settings on your phone. BLU sent me a APN Programming guide to help me with the setup. Send them and email to [email protected]

  • If you still need help learning how to use your phone just ask BLU's tech support. Their email address is [email protected].

  • You should contact Blu for help. Their email address is [email protected]

  • You should contact BLU tech support team. They should be able to help you out! their email address is [email protected]

  • Yes. The phone is a Android phone,and with that being said all Android phones have access to download Google applications.

  • Actually the phone should have 4G HSDPA or HSPA+ if you set up your APN settings with AT&T. If you need help talk to BLU's tech support. Their email is [email protected]. Hope this helps!

  • i purchased this phone and love it. it does everything i need and feels like the latest phone. alot cheaper but worth it. but does anyone have issue with the battery life. i have trouble having mine last past 13 hrs

  • Just order for mine last week. I can't wait to get my hands on it.

  • I just bought this phone today. N so far I love. Just like all phones. It has its goods n bads about it. But more good..the camara is on point in the daylight. But night time and the flash. The pic comes out dark. Any suggestion. As so I had problems with the volume everything sounded very low. I simply went to Google play n downloaded an equalizer n im in the game...I so love this phone bc it capable of hold 2 SIM cards. That mean I dont have to carry my work phone anymore.....overall I give this baby****(4stars)

  • Can someone tell me how to send pictures with a text please.

  • I got a BLU Studio 5.0 and it's worth its weight in gold

  • OK,I've read a bunch of the reviews on here and really don't understand all the negatives. I own a studio 5.0 and I haven't had any problems or complaints about its functionality. It does everything I wanted in a phone and more. All functions work as described and the complaints about sound level can be corrected with a simple EQ app downloaded from the play store. The 5 inch screen works and looks as expected. Remember,this is not a 500 dollar phone,its a budget phone and it's well worth the price. The simple fact that its a dual sim unlocked phone for less than 200 dollars should be enough to convince someone to buy it. I love this phone.

  • I cannot send txt messages on my blu studio 5.0, I use the TIM network in Brasil..I receive messages, but the phone will not send..can anyone help me?

  • Yes, it can

  • Why is the volume so low? I miss so many calls because it's so low and the battery life sucks.... It there any way I can fix this?

  • this phone is listed on NET10's website for $149, can you give me any info on the prepaid company using an unlocked phone?

  • does this phone have gmail, google+, access to all the google apps, etc...?

  • HI this phone is only 3g on at&t or tmobile 2

  • HI this phone is only 3g on at&t or tmobile 2

  • You can take a screen shot by holding down the "Power Button" and the "Volume Down Button" at the same time. Sometimes you have to time it right.

  • The phone has 2 SIM slots so that users can have 2 different phone numbers on their phone. Usually a personal phone # and a business phone #. It reduces the amount of phones people would need to carry around.

  • I would contact [email protected] so that one of their reps can help you fix your phone. You can also call them at 1-877-602-8762

  • In the USA, AT&T has had the most stable 4G connection. I used both T-Mobile and AT&T and I had the best experience with AT&T.

  • Yes this phone uses the standard size "Mini-SIM". :)

  • So is this saying it uses a standard size SIM card?

  • Does anyone use this with an AT&T sim card, if so how is the performance? Im looking into getting one.

  • That's good u got it for 150 I had to pay 222 for mines and that's including tax

  • I have a blu 5.0 The screen is almost white and I cannot see anything on the screen. How do I get this rectified?

  • Why does it ask or allow the use of two sim card's?
