Windows Phone 8.1 is just as colorful as the BLU Win HD, and it's an intuitive OS that's unfortunately hampered by an uneven app store selection when compared with Google Play and Apple's App Store.
BLUE FIREWORKS HD ANDROID
Gameplay isn't as smooth as with more powerful, similarly priced unlocked Android devices like the Moto G. But you should look elsewhere if you're looking to play any intensive games like Asphalt 8: Airborne. The 1.2GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 200 and 1GB RAM powering the Win HD makes for a relatively snappy experience while using and navigating around Windows Phone 8.1, with only a few stutters during basic animations. Transmissions through the microphone were very good, as the test caller on the other end could hear and understand me very well, while mentioning voice tones were close to true-to-life. Voice quality through the earpiece was serviceable, but I had difficulty understanding the person on the other end at times. Call volume during my tests was low, especially while outside on a busy New York City street. If you're on AT&T, you'll be limited to HSDPA+ 21, which is slower than T-Mobile's HSDPA+ 42 network. Dual-SIMs aren't that uncommon in budget-minded unlocked smartphones, like the Verykool S505 Spark ( at Amazon) (Opens in a new window), and can be useful if you travel frequently and need to swap cards often. A speaker grille sits at the very bottom.Ī small notch on the back bottom left lets you remove the back cover, which conceals the Win HD's battery, two SIM card slots, and a microSD slot that supports cards up to 32GB. Around back toward the top, the rear-facing camera is slightly raised with a flash and chrome BLU logo located directly beneath. The Power button is on the top right edge, and Volume Up/Down controls are on the top left. On the top edge, you'll find the micro USB port for charging and connecting to computers, as well as a 3.5mm audio jack. Read Our ZTE Nubia 5s mini (Unlocked) Review At 720p, the Win 5-inch 294 pixels-per-inch (ppi) display is sharper than the Nokia Lumia 1320 ($37.97 at Amazon) (Opens in a new window), which also has a 720p display, but it's less sharpt at 244ppi since it's an inch larger. The display panel looks like it wraps around the edges of the phone, which gives the Win HD a sleek look. It looks like someone haphazardly laid some tape to keep paint off the panel, producing a jagged edge where there's meant to be a perfectly straight line. However, the bright colors also helped me notice some minor manufacturing flaws on the bottom border of our yellow review unit, right beneath the display panel. The contrast between these colors and the dark panel is striking this phone is meant to be noticed. Taking a cue from Nokia's vibrant Lumia phone color schemes, you have your choice of orange, pink, white, or yellow paintjobs. Since 1982, PCMag has tested and rated thousands of products to help you make better buying decisions. ( See how we test everything we review (Opens in a new window).) And it's easy to confuse the front camera's size and positioning on the grille's right, and the sensors on the grille's left, with HTC's design points. At 5.7 by 2.75 by 0.31 inches (HWD) and 6.06 ounces, it's not small or lightweight, but by no means is it excessively large or bulky. The earpiece's grille isn't as wide as on HTC phones, but it's still reminiscent of the company's style.
You'd be forgiven if you saw the BLU Win HD's tall, narrow, and rectangular design and thought it was from HTC.
Just be wary of its poor camera performance, and if you plan on playing resource-hungry games, you may want to check out Android offerings in the same category, like the Motorola Moto G ($129.99 at Amazon) (Opens in a new window). If you really want Windows Phone 8.1, it's the best unlocked Windows phone we've tested in this price range. It's a good unlocked phone considering its low price and large display.
