BLU Vivo 6 - User Reviews

  • vivo mentioned 4 gb ram and 64 gb internal memory but when you will use this mobile you ram will work only 256mb I was very shocked when I saw, and also very bad quality of battery charging, I don't why they are mentioning such type of specification, I am thinking this type of manufacturer is white color criminal ok so please do not purchase such type of device

  • On amazon uk, i know its sucks but i only found it there

  • I would like to buy this device but I don't know any where by to buy it from, live in California,

  • The same problem i had, but it's easy to solve this problem by changing the USB cable type c, just the cable and preferring a good quality cable, and it will take an hour and half maximum, don't worry, it is a fantastic phone

  • change your cable(charging cable)

  • very bad battery also not reliable,face different problems time to time

  • Battery teak 4 or 5 hours to charge,,,,,its battery very bad...

  • i bought a vivo 6 about 6 months ago,,, GOOD= - the speed/response is very good (though i dont game) - gps works very well - screen is nice, very good definition , - the otg cable works very good BAD= - the battery charged very fast at the begenning, but now it takes for Ever to charge it , - i could never make it work on 4g/LTE , it only goes up to H+, and sometimes not even then the internet works fine,,,, i dunno,,, my guess is that as it's not a popular phone, the ISP doesn't expect some configuration about it,,, - the android version it brings suksssssssssss Love to all see u over the rainbow (gatherings ;) )

  • Blue has been slowly making strides here in the UK and their phones have decent/above average specs for a very affordable price. But my questions are: 1. How about updates. Are they a bit quick enough than Motorola and as quick as Samsung & Sony? 2. Between the Vivo 6, Xperia XA Ultra and and old Z3 which one would be great in overall battery life, performance & camera?

  • i Buyed a USB type C charger wire from local market, now mobile is charging with in 2-2.30 hrs... problem with original charger is with charging wire, extremely low quality.

  • I bought the phone a week ago and i noticed that it takes about 3 hours to get charged, even though it have fast charge property, what is the problem?

  • go to network settings and manually enter access point numbers, it will work

  • I don't understand what do you mean by cellular data not working, can you explain more, please

  • Yesterday i buy the mobile vivo 6. It is great mobile but cellular data is not working, is this setting problem or mobile problem. kindly guide me

  • it took so long to get full charge, for past 3 months full charge was in 2 hours...now its taking 6 -7 hours...its ridiculous....where i can get chargers..? battery spare...guys post some clues

  • Taking at least 8 hours for recharge from 0. ( Very Bad)

  • Is there anybody who knows that this Blu Vivo 6 cannot be connected to Internet using Data Sim? Or there is someway to configure this on how is will be connected to Internet and use all APPs'.

  • Advantages are infinite. Disadvantage is even with turbo-charge, battery takes 6 hrs to full-charge. First 2-3 days, it took only 2 hours for full-charge. Dunno what's wrong now...

  • can anyone who owns this device (Blu Vivo 6) gve the advantages and disadvantages of using this phone ?

  • Can anyone tell me how to change your caller id on this phone? Many thanks

  • sounds great when will vivo 6 be available in the USA

  • Hi I'm coming from the same phone here (galaxy s4). But I'm worried about buying this phone. Would you tell me how well does it age? Does it slow down? Is it durable?

  • its nice but not very good no infrared no notification led poor battery nice ram nice rom nice screen only normal phone look and learn from meizu phone

  • my sentiments exactly. Im still stuck on the VIVO 5. upgrading soon and that whom imma take home to mama..lol MADD!!

  • mi5

  • Has anyone used a USB to HDMI adaptor to connect to a TV or overhead projector for films or power point?

  • Wanna buy a new phone as my One M8 is giving its last few breaths and I don't want to spend again 500 pounds on a phone so I'm torn between vivo 6 and Xiaomi Mi5. Which should I get? I mostly use it for games, internet, gps and maps.

  • Yes I have a 128GB card installed. I was confused too (gsmarena spec details say up to 256 but, as you say, BLU spec says 64) but I decided to try a 128 and so, far it seems to run fine.

  • yes, it works fine but not perfect, it could give some overheating problems on the micro SD slot, or also can hide some files ocationally, but the phone allows to do it, I recommend to you to use a 64GB micro SD the phone itself will combine it to have 128 GB onboard, which believe me is more than you will need, remember even if you have 500GB of space but you have the phone overloaded with apps it will make your phone to slow down cause of the apps files and partition that occupies in the phone.

  • can you confirm you have added a 128gb card and it works? the specs on the manufacturers site only works with 64

  • Bought two weeks ago and am very impressed so far - especially for the price (GBP 185 on amazon uk). A proper metal back, not a slippery glass fingerprint-magnet. Not a top processor but is as fast as I need (and a lot faster than my previous Galaxy S4), the large and clear screen makes for easier usage, it has 4 GB RAM plus 64 GB on-board storage and I have added a 128 GB SDHC card which Marshmallow allows to be combined together with the on-board storage so plenty of easily-managed room for music and photos. PLUS, importantly for me, it has an FM tuner - a function which has, crazily, been disabled on all the "top" smartphones who would rather we use our data allowances and run down our batteries faster to stream radio stations online (I am in the UK and like listening to the BBC radio stations). I'd have preferred a replaceable battery but will have to get used to taking a battery pack on journeys away from a power outlets.

  • The specs look amazing for the listed price I can find. If the price is truly what I found and the specs are what they claim to be, this phone will be nearly impossible to beat.

  • how come?

  • Looks less premium than vivo 5 but still an amazing phone
