Only 2 phones I can think of
Most likely the Galaxy S20 and the Galaxy Z Fold
Horrible screen
Thing thing has the same DPI as an iPhone 4! The screen is awful, not smooth at all for highly detailed images / video.
Re: Wow this device must be an incredible failure...
I have two copies of that game for my 4 switch Atari 2600. Trust me - this phone will have to be worse than worse to be as bad as ET....
Re: 5G
I don't see how 5G is necessary unless you live in a dense urban centre. I live near a city of about 100,000, and when I run an Ookla speed test on my Moto Z2 Play, I get on average 70 Mbps. The only advantage that a human might notice is reduced ping times, that's it. Data is already so fast in most areas that a human might not even be able to discern the difference ...
Just launched in Canada
Bell and Virgin Mobile in Canada now fully support the E-Sim.
Wave hand over display
My Moto Z2 play also wakes up when you wave your hand over the display. I think this is standard for all Motorola phones that include gesture support. You can also double-twist the phone to auto open the camera, etc. Also worked on my Moto G4 Plus.
Rechargable?
I see that you stated it can be UP TO one year battery life (Could be a month, could be eleven), however after that year, is the device garbage, or can it be recharged?
Free from T-Mobile
T-Mobile offers a very similar device to any/all customers having coverage issues. For Free.
Snapdragon 435?
I currently have a Moto G4 Plus which has a Snapdragon 617 processor. I'm wondering if anybody knows or can point me to a site that would show some kind of comparison? How would the 435 stack up as compared to the 617? Any help would be appreciated.
Re: Which is accurate?
Blu sent me the email, they said they apologize for the inconvenience (??) and that the phone does have a 3000 mAh battery, and they will contact Amazon to make the correction. I let them know that I saw this on www.Phonescoop.com, but they did not address that statement.
Re: Which is accurate?
I just sent Blu a message asking them to clarify the battery size. When they get back to me, I will post the email here.
Clowns and Jokers
Both Pai and Trump are clowns. I just saw Trump on TV, everything is either the Best, The Greatest, The Biggest, or Sad. He doesn't explain a single damn thing. I can't believe we have to put up with this for 4 more years. :(
The Specs for this phone are wrong
I think you mixed up the specs for the Moto G4 and the Moto G4 plus, as the specs that I see you have listed here for the Moto G4 appear to actually be the G4 Plus's specs.
Re: Poor Upgrade
I agree with you, however as mid-range devices get more powerful year over year, with very good pricing (Sub $400.00), upgrade options open up that were not there before.
When I think of upgrades I think of the traditional kind, like back in the day when an upgrade meant getting 8 MB of more ram for your 33Mhz 486-SX, which gave that kind of computer HUGE performance and usability increases. If a company is going to design ...
Re: Poor Upgrade
I mean, I agree those are nice changes, but I just don't see a need for them. I've never owned a phone with more than 2GB of RAM, and I've never seen a need for it, all of the phones I've had could run any application I've ever downloaded with no issue with 2GB of RAM. The increased processor speed would be nice, however my older Galaxy S4 and Blackberry Z30 could run any application I've ...
Poor Upgrade
This phone is too similar to the Moto G4 Plus, and is a step down as well as far as screen size goes, from 5.5 inch to 5.2 inch. Processor is a step from the 617 to the 625, however almost everything else about the phone is nearly identical. I have a Moto G4 Plus and it's a great phone, but I would not consider upgrading to this one.
Re: What if my device only has US LTE band 2 4 and 12?
If your phone only has LTE band 2, 4, and 12, then you wont get LTE. However, if it supports WCDMA 900 or 1800, you will most likely get 3G UMTS / HSPA or 4G HSPA+ service where it is available.
engaging and immersive conversations
Which will clearly only be about cats
Re: End of the list
bottom of the barrel is better than what the other providers are doing, which is nothing.

Re: Frequency Bands
Awesome! Thank you.
Frequency Bands
Do we know specifically which LTE bands this device supports? 2 / 4 / 12 / 13 / 17 ?
Great news!
Naperville is FINALLY getting decent coverage from T-Mobile. Now my family can switch!
Re: Updates?
I shook my magic 8 ball, and it said all signs point to yes.
Re: Samsung Pay works at Target
This is pretty hilarious. Here in Canada, we have been using chip cards for at least 10 - 12 years, and now, all new debit / credit cards have tap capability up to a $100.00 purchase. It's standard here, all businesses / restaurants accept them, and it's quick and easy. I have personally been using a chip / tap card for at least 10 years and I have never had a fraudulent charge, and I don't ...
Re: As much as Apple sucks...
The iPhone SE is not a lower end device. The iPhone SE and the iPhone 6S are identical apart from screen size - check the phone comparison tool on this very website to see the truth.
Based on what you said, you won't like this phone because it is cut and dry - it is a "small" version of the same line of phones.
SE = small screen
6S = Medium screen
6S Plus = Large screen
However, based on specs, ...
50%? Yeah right.
Article says 4 lines, 10GB per line for $110.00. T-Mobile's current 4 line offer with 10GB is $120.00. That seems like $10.00 savings, not 50%. Wow, nice job with your advertising, Boost.
Re: Canadian phone?
I can see what you mean -
This is not a great band set for any carrier in the United States. While the phone would work with T-Mobile and AT&T, it would get very poor service in some areas, and it does not support any low band LTE networks.
If this phone was used in Canada, it would get excellent service on Bell / Virgin Mobile, as it nearly supports all of their frequency bands (Except for ...
Canadian phone?
Based on the frequency bands of this phone, it would work great with Bell or Virgin Mobile in Canada.
Re: Watch out t-mobile..... NOT
Even if you have an "Unlimited" data cell phone plan, cell phone data plans are not meant to be a replacement for a home internet connection, and using your phone like you would your home internet is foolish. What is also foolish is actually expecting a carrier, any carrier, give you fully, truly unlimited high speed data. There are terms and conditions for a reason. All of them have fair use clauses in their terms & ...
Re: Even if TMobile Had the Fastest, Largest, and Most Reliable 4G...
Tellico Plains has a population of 894, Reliance of 1034, and Delano of 1561. It would not make business sense to expend the kinds of funds required to provide coverage to such small communities. I could not find a place called "Bear Paw", However, Ocoee, TN, does have T-Mobile coverage. It's only 1900Mhz LTE and 2G, but there is still coverage in that town.
Oh, also, I checked Sprint's coverage - they have no coverage in Tellico ...
Garbage
The EIP (Equipment Installment plan) agreements simply say that if you cancel your service, you owe the remaining amount due on the phone, which makes obvious sense. Also, by virtue of somebody having an EIP, they agreed through email by giving their electronic signature to the agreement. Whenever I agree to a contract or anything like that, I always read all the fine print. All of it. Maybe if these dumb consumers had done that, they ...
Re: It's crazy
You could always get hand enlargement surgery.

Hahaha.. I didn't think I'd find anything, but wow. I guess it really is a thing.
54 inch screen!
DAMN! You know I was only kidding when I said people should be carrying around flat-screen TVs on their shoulders, right?
Cellular Connectivity
Does anybody know if this watch requires cellular connectivity to function properly, or will it still work when simply paired to a device by Bluetooth if there is no sim in the watch?
This is a flagship phone for 2015/2016?
Based on the specs, seems more like a 2014/2015 flagship. Where's the 2K screen? 4GB Ram?
Lame, Sony. Lame.
Re: 100 Megabits ?
I am honestly not sure, I'll do my best to look that up and get back to you. I'm now interested myself, as well.
100 Megabits ?
My Galaxy S 4, which does not support carrier aggregation, being used on Virgin Mobile (in Canada) can get 70 Megabits per second. In Canada the laws are different, and cellular tower output is lower than in the United States. Sprint tries so hard, but they can never seen to get it right.
Re: The new mobile hotspots
I very much disagree that this is a good use for that port. All of the car's systems can be monitored through this port. This means that 3rd party data collection, which is prevalent in our society today, may be happening here. Nobody is to say that it isn't. If you only have one 12-volt port, you can easily get an adaptor that turns one of them into two, I have also seen adaptors that ...
OBD-II ?
I am very curious as to why any non-diagnostic device would plug into the OBD-II port on any car. It almost seems like there is some kind of data collection going on here that the consumer is not being told about. They could have easily made this device plug into the on-board 12-volt outlets. I would personally never plug anything except a scanner into my car's OBD-II port, that's what it's meant for, and that *should* ...
