I like it, thank you for the quality product.

Different pros: quite smart, a 10-year-old child likes it, there is enough memory for games Some cons: after repeated fall, the flash memory contact came off and the phone does not turn on

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I am delighted, the product is really worthy.

ATTENTION! Information for those who, in the absence of the Internet on this smartphone, will panic. When registering a SIM card on the network, the Amazon operator blocked access to the Internet, citing in the message that the smartphone is defined on the network as a modem (the access point and modem were disabled in the settings). After contacting Amazon, the blocking was lifted.

Pros
  • When choosing, for that kind of money, I was quite satisfied (considering the filling and characteristics that coincide with those declared. Except that I didn’t drown and throw it from a height, for the sake of experiment).
Cons
  • Haven't revealed yet. I don’t pay attention to compass calibration and other garbage, like him.

A little disappointed, a bad purchase.

I found out if the case was under warranty, I called the seller’s hotline on 11/21/2022, the polite operator replied that the case was probably not covered under warranty due to mechanical damage, and recommended that I contact the manufacturer. More interesting! I found three sites right away, each of which proudly says: blackview official smartphone site / blackview official site. I called - they only sell, they cannot answer the question of the guarantee, since they do not represent the…

Pros
  • Appearance, normal performance when using regular applications (messengers, navigation, etc.). Relatively reliable Internet signal reception.
Cons
  • 1. This is not a secure smartphone, but only an imitation. After two and a half months of use, I had the imprudence to pull off the table along with the documents. From falling on the parquet, the screen glass (protected, right?) Cracked (!) in the corner. Part of the on-screen keyboard stopped working in a vertical position. The case is not guaranteed. 2. The battery is frankly weak, more or less holds the first month. Further, without an external portable power source, it is strongly not recommended to leave the outlet for more than a few hours. 3. The camera is disgusting even for its small megapixels. The image quality is poor regardless of the lighting conditions.

Average quality of the product, especially for the money.

I liked the phone itself - comfortable, but the quality is much to be desired. I made a return before the start of the warranty, I will not buy a second one. With its pros. The glass is excellent, the case is excellent, the memory is 4 + 32G / B, android 10, but all the programs for it are with advertising, a compass, a level, there are maps, it is not afraid of water and it seems to fall too. Accumulator 4330 m/A. Got cons: On the eleventh day, it went out and couldn’t turn on anymore, the…

Reliable Quality Product

As a retired Marine I was impressed with the product's durability and "reliability". Because of the discount, very discount, I tried the service provider. I switched back to my original provider and it was loud and clear. In fact, the clarity and volume of the sound is much better than my previous phone. In general, the reliability of a phone reflects the quality of the product. It's under control. Highly recommended for those spending time outdoors, leading an active lifestyle or just want a…

Pros
  • As Everything Before
Cons
  • There Are New Competitors

Great phone for the price

The size and weight takes a little getting used to but other than that it's a great phone for the price. The phone is really indestructible. I've been testing it for the past 2 months. It has survived being put in my pocket and rubbed on a folded knife and keys a few times a day (there are no scratches on the screen at all), I've dropped the phone from 1ft to 6ft onto concrete ( the case now has scratches). but the phone works great every time) and it even survived a fall into a creek (good…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Out of fashion

4G not available on Red Pocket or AT&T prepaid plans

At&t SIM card inserted and everything was fine, then I started hearing about missed messages. I did some research and found that I need to update my IEMI number. After I did that, the next day I only had 3G coverage, no VoWIFI and no data from 3G. Contact AT&T now. I was also looking for a Red Pocket phone but as it turns out Blackviews only supports 2G and 3G on their website. ** UPDATE, just got off the phone with AT&T for an hour. 4G does not work if you enter a black IMEI number! I'll try…

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Some flaws

The phone is packed with features. Supports all major and latest networks (I use LTE on an AT*T network with FreedomPop). Features: - The screen is very bright. I can't adjust the slider higher than about 1/2 without lighting up the whole room. - Good speakers - Controls are simple and work well - Rubber doors are easy to use. I believe that without seals there can be no "waterproof" phone. makes connecting the charging cable a bit cumbersome. That brings me to my next point. - The USB port is…

Pros
  • Lots of positive emotions
Cons
  • There are doubts

One of the best budget cell phones I've ever owned.

There aren't many flaws with this phone and one problem, maybe not even the phone's fault. I use LastPass for password control. The phone keeps turning off the automated part of LastPass (AutoFill). I am working on this topic. Second, the USB port on the bottom is sealed with a rubber cover for charging the phone. I understand it's for water resistance, but with every product I've had with this coating, the rubber holding the phone's cover wears out quickly. I expect that coverage will drop…

Pros
  • Excellent general characteristics
Cons
  • Style 90
