Rigondi, 26 Sep 2014Hi about this Vivo IV I had it for 14 days and when I re... moreCase comes with phone.
Battery life is good but drains with screen on. If screens off there is next to nothing with drain. You probably bricked the phone and didn't install the correct update as the updates are not posted online like you suggested. You need to go to the phones about page to update. You do not need to close all appsto save battery. Lastly this phone is extremely light and fast. IPhone fanboys need to stop acting like they owned this phone wen they didt

    Hi about this Vivo IV

    I had it for 14 days and when I received a notice to update the wireless software from Blue then phone just die. I have not been able to use the phone so I was able to return the phone to the store. I got my full refund and just when to buy and IPHONE 5s. It was good for the 14days. Few problems with this cell.

    1.It has a tendency to get hot while walking on the sun
    2. You must close all apps that you are not currently using to safe battery life.
    3. the speaker is not loud enough to hear a call due to having the speaker at the bottom.
    4. no case or you can't really buy a case for this cell

    Good Points.

    fast fast fast
    Camara 1-10 scale 7.5 because it doesn't have image stabilization.
    Wonderful Screen for videos
    and LARGER SCREEN Rocks!

      I have this phone about 6 months now upgraded to kit kat and I'm using Google's Nexus launcher battery has improved I can see the difference with the kit kat upgrade doesnt drain as much as it did do I miss LTE nope I currently have this phone on metro and I'm getting a consistent 9-12mbps which is great super amoled display the design is a great feel talk about thin I think thinnest phone out I give much kudos to BLU cameras are both awesome and all this for 299$ unlocked 2gb of ram 16 internal they didn't go wrong with not including a SD card option it would have slowed the phone down and besides everything now a days is cloud storage I'm happy with this purchase plan to go with

                      For persons complaining that about it is the same as this phone and that phone. Blu is like the american version of the phone, the other companies are in asia and india and support their countries. Blu is located in Miami.

                                  After using it for a week, it's an overall good phone. While it does have it's disadvantages (mainly Blu software) it's hardware is great. The screen is amazing 5" is the perfect size for me. From what I've read, the screen is samsung S4, the camera is a sony and it shows, both perform very good. People complaining about battery life don't own the phone. A typical user will get through a day. Yes there is a software issue w/ BLU, where the batt plummets when you take it off the charger then it slows down at around 80% and continues to discharge slower and slower. Prob in between my HTC one M7 and Moto X in terms of batt life. LTE is not missed at all, I have AT&T and get blazing 7-12mbps DL speeds, (about the speed my iPhone 5S was getting on tmo) in everyday use it feels the same as LTE, because it is mostly. If BLU would get there act together they could easily improve Batt life by 20% and with Android L seeing 30% improvement over that, this phone could have a very significant batt life. It hasn't been out that long so I'll wait to see, a Kit Kat update is promised any day now. As for the lacking BLU software, well that's the beauty of Android, use you favorite launcher and you will be fine.

                                  As for the processor speed it seems very quick, it's a hair behind a iPhone 5S speed which I know is very fast for the market right now. MediaTek is not as optimized as Snapdragon or Apple's A7 so it can still get even faster, there is a lag here and there where you can tell the software isn't smooth. Games run fine like they do on my iPhone 5S. Heat can be an issue for some since it's made out of Metal and Glass they are more conductive materials than Plastic, so you can feel it heat up faster, the plus is it also cools down faster. I'm use to it from my iPhones, if your used to a Plastic phone you will complain about heat.

                                  Overall this phone has amazing potential to be an outstanding phone in the near future with a KitKat/L update. It's not about who's name is on the phone for me, if it was I would just have an iPhone and consider nothing else.

                                    Battery Life is the MOST Important Of All, will you be satisfy/happy with a short life battery? NO!! But Im Expecting BLU will learn from their mistake and plss Improve The Battery Life.
