                I don’t get all this complaining about the ppi on this phone. At 178 ppi its running about the same ppi as the Samsung Galaxy Mega 5.8 which is priced at $359 retail – which is double the price. Studio 5.5 is also about the same ppi as Galaxy Grand which is $300, all while Studio 5.5 is still having more ppi than entry level Samsung devices like Galaxy Young S6310, Galaxy Fame S6810 which are still priced higher than Studio 5.5. Not to mention the Studio 5.5 still has much higher ppi than several of the Samsung 7” and 10” Tablets. I think you all should know what you are talking about before posting negative comments. For $179 retail having a Quad Core Processor, and 1GB RAM, the phone is priced great. If you want more ppi then you can spend $700 on a Note 3, since this device is not for you.

                      good pricing, It would have been much better if they could have reduce the screen size to 4.3 - 4.7 inches with same resolution or higher and incorporate some other features like gorilla glass , 8MP camera , 8GB internal storage

                                      178 ppi? no thank you.
                                      BLU, wake me up when you can do a 2GB RAM phone like your other Chinese partners. MTK6589T is the new standard with 444 ppi Japanese Display.
                                      Your only product differentiation is getting GLONASS to run on a SOC that only supports American GPS.
