mj23, 09 Sep 2015Whats the point of having thin phone?Are you joking? Or serious? Assuming the former I will tell you because I own the device. Having a day and a half battery a gorgeous display and lightning fast speed in a tiny thin device that can be easily put in a ticket pocket or a hand wallet is what we've all been waiting for. Why in the world would you want a thick heavy device? They've only been thick and heavy because nobody could figure out how to make them efficient until now. I could understand if it was all gimmick but the thing works great and the battery last longer than anything I've ever owned.

Lo Hi, 09 Sep 2015This device is practically useless in the U.S.
According... moreWorks better that almost any device I've owned yet. Here in America. I stream 58 mps average on my Vivo Air LTE. It's a FANTASTIC choice for this country. Especially for the crazy low price.
Don't regurgitate spec talk from other sites. You have to use the device to know

They make sure the devices are running English and have the Google suite on them. Each of their brands phones has the identical Chinese equivalent under different branding. I love the 4 Blue Phones

Typing this from Portland Oregon on my Blu Vivo Air LTE over full LTE on T-Mobile. Streaming 58mps download, 13 upload.
No issues at all. Sure, some middle America parts of the country may limit you to 4G HSPA+, but that's still going to be between 12-25 mps in most cases.
So i wouldn't say it's "crazy" to use in the US. Especially for well under $200.

Anyone buying a new LTE-capable device for AT&T would be crazy to buy one without band 17, which is AT&T's main LTE band. Band 12 is pretty new for T-Mobile but it is very important in those areas where they have it deployed (South Florida BTW is one of those areas).

According to BLU's website it doesn't support LTE bands 17 or 12. Buyer beware!
