[ZTE Axon 7 Real Life Review] nonamesl:
The front facing dual speakerphones are amazing. They can be very loud, more than any other phone I've encountered, and it's a great quality (for a phone and even more). But, I found that the atmos equalizer actually makes the sound quieter and less clear. Ironic.
[ZTE Axon 7 Real Life Review] FuzzyDunlop9:
How is viper4android on the axon 7. Does it make it better
[ZTE Axon 7 Real Life Review] RobboW:
It would make the internal speakers and bluetooth better but probably break support on the DAC for the 3.5mm jack.
[ZTE Axon 7 Real Life Review] celticchrys:
I'm really shocked by this, as my Axon 7 is one of the worst speakerphones I've ever used. people sound fine to me, but almost without fail, people I call have difficulty hearing me. Doesn't matter if they are on the same carrier, a different one, or even a landline.
[ZTE Axon 7 Real Life Review] William Guo:
celticchrys, have you tried to walk around other place, I guess it's the place that block your signal. Or you can reset your phone.
[ZTE Axon 7 Real Life Review] RobboW:
Maybe because the speakers are good, you could be too far from the mic?

I don't find it that loud on speakerphone but on GPS it's quite loud. The sound quality is good.
[ZTE Axon 7 Real Life Review] celticchrys:
It seems to happen whether I'm at home, work, or in the car. It happens on stock and on Lineage OS. Therefore, I've always assumed low quality microphone. It happened on my first Axon 7 (a gold one), and also on the current one (a grey one), which was a warranty replacement device, when the first one got broken.
[ZTE Axon 7 Real Life Review] RobboW:
Sound on GPS is good, seems GPS lady is murmuring sweet nothings in my ear ?

[BLU R1 HD Real Life Review] tuco2015:
Build quality is pretty good and it is nice size. I don't game and for the things I do it is more than fast enough. I actually wanted a sub 5" phone but there really is any decent Android devices for less than $300. At $60 I am not overly concern with updates either since it is cheap enough to replace. There a phones that cost many times more that will get the same amount of updates. Better battery life than my Nexus 5 (which is not hard), decent camera, fairly stock android. Downside, other than the able to root, probably won't get any real updates or get custom roms.
[BLU R1 HD Real Life Review] movielover76:
Amazing for $60, for me this is just a backup phone, but this phone really handles the most common smartphone tasks even some light 2D gaming, extremely well.
[BLU R1 HD Real Life Review] jasonmerc:
This is my new primary device. I've never had flagship devices (besides the S3 I bought a year ago) so I may just have low standards for what to actually expect from a phone, but I love this R1 HD. You can't beat this thing for $60, let alone the non-subsidized $110 price, especially considering the community that's growing around this phone. Look at what we've accomplished in the first month. This could become the next S3.

It's my daily and I'm loving it!!
[BLU R1 HD Real Life Review] Thomaslm800:
New Daily Driver

Probably the best phone I've owned to date. I've had LG G2, iPhone 5s, and Galaxy s5 (rooted & ROM'd). The R1HD replacing my s5. I bought the 16gb Prime R1HD not expecting a whole hell of a lot, but once I rooted and de-bloated it, damn what a phone. Stripped down to damn near stock android, some features of touchwiz I do miss, and the NFC but Other than the camera quality (that is actually better than the s5 other than action shots and I have an actual camera for that.) I have nothing to complain about. $60 and you get so much more phone for that. Worth every penny. After 14 hours of heavy use(booting to recovery and all that many times) still had 10% before I hit the bed @ 3am and today after moderate use for 15 hours still have 60% battery left. Truth be told I haven't done much 3d gaming on it but for everything else this thing is the tits. Great build quality, great screen, multitasking a breeze. I Can't wait for whats in store for this phone. I felt I needed to contribute to this community for how much it has helped me over the years. I just want to say thanks. Cheers.
[BLU R1 HD Real Life Review] witheld9:
Build quality is fantastic and performance leaves little to be desired. I regularly get 24+ hours of moderate to heavy usage before requiring a charge.

But, it doesn't have ambient display and the camera is so bad that it's not even worth taking pictures of things with it. Even my old Moto G 1st gen took better pictures.

But the main problem is, it's kind of really ugly. It's a flat brick of a rectangle with no attempt at design. So I can't love it.
[BLU R1 HD Real Life Review] linuxgator:
Did you take the plastic off of the lens? Mine takes far better photos than my Moto G first gen ever could.
[BLU R1 HD Real Life Review] waingro808:
What do you mean ambient display? Hey, it's better looking that the Moto G4 Play!
[BLU R1 HD Real Life Review] linuxgator:
Ambient display is a feature in lollipop and later for AMOLED displays that shows notifications on the screen. It's generally not used with LCD screens as they require the entire display to be lit as opposed to only get pixels being used in AMOLED displays. Very similar to Moto display.

Zero lag in non-gaming tasks. Quite amazing. And I'm comparing to Galaxy S7.
[BLU R1 HD Real Life Review] burnanator:

I find it snappy enough to meet my needs.
[BLU R1 HD Real Life Review] sarcoptic:
Owning a Nexus 6P as my main phone, I wasn't expecting too much out of the R1. However after getting things setup for my son with a freedompop SIM I am damn impressed for it being a $60 phone! Very happy with the purchase!
[BLU R1 HD Real Life Review] JShan:
For me, it gets laggy from time to time. But a restart will usually do the trick to pep it up again. I've seen nothing that is nearly as extreme as what this guy on Android Police wrote : http://www.androidpolice.com/2016/0...-eleven-the-slowening-begins-i-take-a-hiatus/.
[BLU R1 HD Real Life Review] aklee987:
I have no lag, very similar to my s6 Edge+.
[BLU R1 HD Real Life Review] waingro808:
Yeah, I don't know what that guy is talking about. Maybe he completely filled his internal storage, which can bog it down. After two weeks, I haven't seen any additional slowdown in my usage.
[BLU R1 HD Real Life Review] thirdlobe:
I am using this till I find another phone to purchase and I came from a Nexus 5x. Its definitely slower on speed but I am very surprised how well it works. I wont "miss" anything too terribly for the meantime.

When did android start preserving the running apps across reboots? Is that new with marshmallow? Or are they not running after reboot but just loaded? They seem to be usable immediately after being switched to most of the time.
[BLU R1 HD Real Life Review] rmartinezdl:
Any of you have used a high end phone before? I have currently a broken/almost dead xperia z3 compact, but ive tried switching to other blu phones (dash x2), and samsungs on a budget but they felt painfully slow, so ive been using my broken z3 compact instead.

Thanks
[BLU R1 HD Real Life Review] kal250:
I have owned several flagship phones in the past, as well as a few generic hold over phones, I purchased a BLU phone once for my son, who had broken the screen on his iPhone, and I didn't have the $ to shell out, needless to say the BLU phone got returned the next day, boy was it underpowered!! But I took a chance on this when my fire phone died, and it has not failed to impress me. Is it the greatest no, the photos it takes are sub par(but tolerable), the sound unless tweaked with MTK tools is a little weak, but for the $ it is a snappy little performer. I have no regrets at this point with the purchase.
[BLU R1 HD Real Life Review] waingro808:
Yes, I used LG G4 and Galaxy S7. After using the Blu R1 HD for a month, I sold my S7. Yes, it's that good of a performer. 720p + 2GB RAM + stock android = snappy performance !!!
[BLU R1 HD Real Life Review] LeMagicien:
What do you think of the phone with 1gb Ram ?

I think I'll take it with 2gb
[BLU R1 HD Real Life Review] DarkBlood.:
They aren't loaded just listed. They load after you click them
[BLU R1 HD Real Life Review] dba415:
This phone is spectacular for the price. I've tried the Moto E 2nd gen, the OG HTC One, and this phone blows both out of the water. Always reliable speed, multitasking works like it should. I never have complaints that my phone is too slow because I always get consistent performance.
[BLU R1 HD Real Life Review] yaconsult:
I think that it makes no sense to buy the phone with 1 GB when, for $10 more, you get twice the memory AND twice the storage! Rarely have I gotten so much of an upgrade for $10.

Hello there,

Agreed, even after loading on the apps I use daily, it's way faster than my Galaxy Note 4... I'm switching my daily for now. Even with 1gb less ram, it handles load way better and when the phone was blank, there was really minimal ram usage. With the note, with nothing additional on the phone there's already 1.5-2gb of ram in active use :(

Must use Blu charger. Otherwise, charging speed will be 30% lower. I checked with Ampere. Using Blu charger, can charge from 10-100 in about ~2 hours. Not bad.
[BLU R1 HD Real Life Review] fraul:
My experience has been different. If you're heavily using the phone (google maps for navigation for example) the battery will barely charge and it will get very hot. The phone maintains charge well, however charging it up is definitely a 3-4 hour process, if I plug it in for 15 minutes with no use it's about 5-10% on the battery max. I did not find the charger that came with the phone to be any different than most other chargers I had lying around, same charge time (most were higher amperage anyway, being throttled by the phone regardless).
