Yes 20%
No 20%
No Idea 100%

I'm thinking of getting a new phone and I don't want to spend iPhone 6 money. I was looking for a cheaper alternative and ran across Blu Products phones. They look effective enough and reasonably priced but I don't know their reputation. So comicvine, I ask you, are they any good?

I really love my lg e980. One prob is when i have dropped it with a case on it some how the damn screen shatters. I have dropped it twice. But im really tall so the phone does fall further then norm.

@undefined: There are a lot of good quality android phones that are cost effective. The OnePlus One is a really good phone but it is hard to get and I think you need to pre order it now. The Nexus line of phones are of good quality and not that expensive off contract. There is also a new Moto G coming out that looks pretty good. There is also the option of getting an older model on a website like Swappa.com. I still use the HTC One (M7) and it is still a great phone. I could upgrade but the One still does everything I need and has amazing speakers. I may upgrade to the Note 4 in a while but still up in the air.

Edit: I had never heard of Blu but after looking at their specs on phonearena.com, none really look that good. The Blu Studio 5.5 looks like it would be the best but still behind a lot of 2012 model phones from brands like Samsung, HTC, or Motorola.

Of course they work effective enough for 90% of users. I hear good things about them on CNET

@punyparker: The Iphone has nothing on the Sony phones. I want te Xperia Z3 compact to be my next phone or wait for the Z4 since Sony updates updates their phones every six months.
