| I agree with this. I bought a Blu R1-HD when my iPhone 6 screen cracked, and decided to wait a few weeks so I could just replace it with an iPhone 7. The few weeks using the Blu went a lot differently than I expected. The phone is very solid and the overall experience of using the phone is first-rate. It would be one thing if we were talking about a $599 Android phone compared with a $749 iPhone. But this thing cost me $59 which is in a totally different ballpark. I would simply not have expected it to be anywhere close to iPhone quality but it is. The only things that are "worse" than an iPhone 6 in my opinion are: - the touch screen is slightly less accurate for taps, but this could also be because I'm less accustomed to Android. - No compass. GPS works fine but panning the phone around doesn't re-orient the map when navigating which is a feature I like. There are also several nice features which it has that the iPhones lack, such as support for SD card storage expansion (I immediately added a fast 64GB one I had lying around) and a second SIM card. Not trying to nitpick features. Buying a R1-HD is like getting a one year old Ferrari for $12K. |
