Blackview are in fact fantastic rugged phones and contain no bloatware , I have had 2 phones over the years the first of which still works perfectly well but decided on an upgrade , my little one uses the old one on WiFi for playing games etc .... Genuine company and fantastic support forum ... Do your homework and these guys knock the socks off of the big boys of rugged phones for both spec and price ..

    Nonsense thing . If software update like Apple is not given then phone is useless after 2 years .

          I think the phone I got was the A7, probably still the cheapest Android in existence that is usable. It was about 30 EUR delivered. Not great, but it works, it even has a fake 0.3MP secondary camera, like the all the phones today have, so it was ahead of its time.

          The watch was the X1, it works, seems very generic, but looks ok. Delivery from preorder took around 1-2 months, longer than advertised.

            I'm posting this because i saw so many negative comments. I've had my BV9600 PRO for just over 2 years. By and large it's been a decent phone. I needed a long lasting battery and it has been as advertised. Up until now the only issue I've had was just the fingerprint reader not working properly. It's been otherwise a good phone.

              I understand all the bad thoughts about the company since I had those before I decide to order one of their phones. But let me tell you that I'm satisfied with the phone and their customer service. My phone arrived in time , granted it took a while since is coming from the other side of the world but arrived by the promised date. It's not a bullet proof phone but it can take the beating I put it thru every day. And when things went wrong was easy enough to contact customer service and work something out that I agreed with it.. All this was 2 years ago and I'm still using their phone. Had the chance to open up the phone since it's out of warranty anyway just for curiosity and can tell you that it's like having all the guts of a phone into a rugged case. But I was happy with it, for the price and durability Thought I couldn't go wrong and I didn't..

                  Company is fraudulent and lies. Just look at the comments on there indigogo campaigns. Many people were ripped off and still waiting for phones.

                    I have lived in Hong kong for 14 years, never seen a blackview product, guess what, blackview is not even a listed hk company, a bit of digging states it's headquartered in Shenzhen and does not even have presence in Hong Kong, very misleading

                        I saw some video where these so called rugged phones fail just after a few drops just like regular phones

                          Looks rugged but remains to be seen how rugged they actually are, since the screen is still glass after all
