BLU Studio 5.0 C D536u 4 GB Smartphone, 5" LCD FWVGA 480 x 854, 512 MB RAM, Android 4.4.2 KitKat, 3G, Blue

I bought this phone after losing a previous phone. My previous phone was much smaller and harder to use. When I bought this, I did not even consider the size it would be, and therefore was surprised when I received it, that it was actually bigger than expected. I got the yellow cause it was bright and should I set it down I would find it easy. I have now had it over a year and it has only taken a minor beating from being dropped a few times, however is still working great. The only complaint I have had after a year is that my battery seems to die very quickly. I turned down the brightness and make sure there is no running apps going on as much as possible to help conserve battery, but it seems that when it shows over half way charged, in the span of maybe an hour it is dead without me having touched it. I'm not sure if this is a flaw or just due to being over a year old. I generally will charge it at night so that it has a full charge by morning. I have also looked around for a replacement battery, as I still very much love this phone and do not want to replace it, but replacement parts seem to be hard to find. Other than that it's been a great phone and have not had any other issues with it. It was a great price and I felt I was getting quite a deal with it.

If you don't care about the camera quality this phone is good for you and work smoothly with nice screen size! But as i mentioned about the camera it takes poor low resolution pictures other than that it's good for the price

A very nice phone. Big just like Samsung Galaxy. camera is not that good, other than that everything is good.

This phone is made by a company that makes only unlocked phones. I was looking for an alternative to buying from att which tend to be limited on the prepaid service and hideously expensive. This phone was excellent the unlocked and dual sims have worked perfectly, the operating system in smooth, front camera is really great and the shutter speed and the LED flash are solid. They included useful extras like a screen protector and a silicone case. I also loved the colors, a warning: the yellow comes more like chartreuse (like highlighter visibility jacket color) and the case is cream yellow. The removable back and battery were a great touch as well Things i did not like: I have run into some lag during heavy use but after I close some apps it smooths out. The selfie cam is bad unless you have good light/ sunlight. I use the front cam on a 2 second timer for good selfies. Overall great great phone. Basic functions (call clarity sim support) work well and all smartphone features works great. I would recommend this phone to anybody.

This phone is great for the money. It doesn't necessarily have the best specs or features, but it gets the job done. I have about 50 apps on the phone with half of the internal memory still available (1.3 GB/2.5 GB after moving all possible apps to a 32 GB MicroSD card). The phone runs multiple apps smoothly, and despite low resolution, the screen is big and bright. The battery lasts a long time if the screen is off (when making a call), but drains at a fair pace if illuminated (I'm told this is typical of bigger screens). About the only thing I dislike is the capacitive buttons do not illuminate at the bottom of the screen, but after using it, you memorize their locations. If you want an affordable unlocked phone, I think you'd be hard-pressed to find one better for the price. It works great with Cricket Wireless.
