AnonD-551872, 22 Jun 2016I like my Blu Studio 5.0 HD LTE, but there is an ongoing is... moreI am sorry but I'm happy to see that I'm not the only one who's Blu Phone "acts" like this. I never noticed that it was hot prior to not turning on but I did have a lot of issues with just the lights blinking on the bottom but nothing would show on the screen. It got so bad that the only way I could charge my phone was by removing the battery and letting it charge without the battery in for a few minutes then putting the battery back in and charging it and eventually it would start to work. Definitely be cautious though. Once i had to start doing that more frequently, it got to the point where the phone just stopped turning on and wouldn't charge.
I had to send it back as it was a lease (I had 2 more payments on it-never again) to see if the phone could be fixed. My phone stopped turning on in late May-around 5.21; I sent it back by the first week of June and to date, I still do not have the phone back.
I leased it through Straight Talk Smart Pay. Has anyone else used the lease program that they offer? If so, anyone have to send a cell phone back? I want to know why it takes almost 2 months to return the phone back to Smart Pay, have them fix it or replace and send back to me (again, I still do not have the phone back as of yet)?
They also never reached out to me to advise that my cell was received on their end, to let me know what the issue was or when I would be receiving my phone or at least a replacement phone in the 2 months they've had it. I had to reach out to them.
I'm very disappointed with this lease program and would not recommend it to anyone.

I like my Blu Studio 5.0 HD LTE, but there is an ongoing issue. It gets hot when it charges and the charging port seems to go bad. When I plug it in to charge it will not charge and the bottom just flashes. I have paid one time to have it replaced not sure what to do now.

I have got this phone for about 5 months and during this time, I have had two problems with it. Firstly, to assess the address contact was a problem. It would take like forever before it would come on. Then I had to reset to factory setting and I lost all the contacts. Presently, when I receive a call, the phone keeps ringing but it goes dark and no icon to pick the call. I have tried using the resetting technique of holding on at the same time to the power on and the volume button but nothing happens even after 5 minutes. What do I do please?

Bought this crappy thing new at Best Buy in April. First issue is the volume on the speaker, in the earpiece, and headphone output.....it is way low. Then after 4 months the mic went out. Returned it and they sent me a new phone, which ALSO had a bad mic out of the box!! Sent it back and got a third phone. It's mic is holding up, but the volumes are still way low, and now it is kicking itself off the internet every two minutes and goes back to homescreen. STAY AWAY from this junky thing!!

Loved the phone for the first month, and then the problems started. Soon became very laggy when opening/switching windows, apps, etc.. Battery life suddenly went way downhill. The main problem I have is overheating.. through even normal use the phone will overheat to the point that it shuts itself down. I have to wait until it cools off before I can even connect it to the charger. Would be a great phone without these problems.

Price and features of this phone are great and I really like Blu phones! However I purchased this phone in JUL 2015 and by AUG and although it had never been dropped, the microphone became intermittent causing static during calls until the mic stopped working altogether. I RMA'd the phone late AUG and by late SEPT WITH a new phone (noted by the new IMEI number) I experienced the exact same mic static and interoperability problems. Taping the phone "sometimes" seems to fix the mic problem (temporarily), however the tapping may be get a bit aggressive after a while.
IMHO this is ether a product design flaw or a persistent quality control problem since several people have reported the same problem. Buyer Beware! Research your phone before buying.
