    No update in 2015. I am a little bit upset as this was a major purchasing point.

            very good all round mid range phone.calling is good,wifi connects easily to my router,3g works good,the general speed of the phone is fast,although only about 267 pixel screen,it is very clear and sharp and viewing angles are excellent. both cameras are very good in my opinion(negligible noise in low light shots)and the flash does an excellent job in total darkness.videos show clearly,whatsapp calls were as good as normal calls,the build quality is excellent,music volume might be a little less for some but i have no problem with it,i put an 8 gb sd card and it was recognized,some downloaded apps cannot be moved to the sd card,but most can,things like here maps and navigator apps i put there,gps is accurate,bluetooth is good,web browsing is good with a big screen,not much of a gamer so can't comment on this and i attached a 16 gb flash drive via an otg cable and in settings under storage,there is an option to open external usb storage,which i enabled and all files on the flash drive were seen.so it is usb otg capable.mine is on kit kat but that is no problem for me.i also use a lumia 640 xl,great bang for the buck with this blu.

                    Anonymous, 26 Jun 2015Why is it so cheap?cheap cause it has only 1gb ram and that sucks bigtime. I have one and it drags sometimes when something is running in the background.

My Studio 5.0 is HSPA also and I do a lot of Data via Non-WiFi. Yes a little slower than LTE and WiFi but still fast enough for me.

                            No LTE though. However this phone is fantastic for prepaid subscribers who don't need a data plan and who will be most of the time on wifi.

                                Bijay, 24 Jun 2015can some one tell me what is the cost of this one and its quality. Thanks.If you go to Blu's web site, you can buy it (Pre order thru Amazon) for $79. I just ordered one myself today. I currently have a Blu Studio 5.0C HD that I bought 6 months ago for $150 & and a Blu Dash 4.5 before that. I keep upgrading and selling my old phones to my sisters. The quality of Blu is EXCELLENT. At these prices and quality, I will NEVER own an iPhone!!!
