It's nice the brand blu actually made a removable battery which is a good feature I wish more models of of phones had however smartphone avoid the 1gb Modal as it's specs are below what I would consider usable in even basic web browsing

Buy a two-years-old used high performance phone on eBay and put that SIM from that Lifeline carrier into the high performance phone and be done with that free spyware tracker from Blu.

Beware!!! This is the worst phoone I've ever had to use. Yes it's a gov phone. In my area cell one sells this "up grade" for a 16 g and 2 g ram for an additional $20.00. They shouldn't even give it away it's so worthless. Half the screen doesn't work. I have to keep rotating it even to type this review. It lags so bad that 90% if time I don't get to do whatever I set out to do because it's lost connection...I don't even think it had a connection to begin with. And maybe some of its the "google go" that's supposed to be making it faster. If so google needs to revamp too. Because it sure doesn't run 15% faster like they claim. It's more like 75%slower if at all. Maybe it's cell one service too? But they have a tower about 4 miles from my phone. My niece took the free phone and she at least can use it when she's at my home. But not this one. I wouldn't even give a half star even though it only cost me $20. But to me that's $20 I could have used for better things, I have to pinch my pennies. And someone commented it's ok for seniors....NOT, I'm a senior and it's not ok.

This phone is so bad, the screen feels cheap, the phone takes forever to start up, its very laggy when you try to open up any program or when making a call there is about a 15-30 delay. There is no access to add a sim card or memory card. Granted people get this phone for free but its worthless. If they let you switch out the sim card you could've used a better phone but no they make sure you can't change for a better phone.

So I got this phone for $5 through ACP. I have an S10+ as me daily phone. I figured I would get a free phone plan jist for a backup but damn this Blu phone is bad. Very laggy. Missing widgets options, no split screen, adb don't work half the time. The vibration sounds like it's falling apart. The display is horrible. I've had 10 year old devices with better displays. The S5 is a better phone me than this is. I would just buy a moto phone if you want something cheap. Even an old Samsung phone would work good. The 32bit system is what is making it so bad. Why it's a 32bit system I don't know those got phased out over 8 years ago.

This phone performs well for basic functions. As others have said, not the best for gaming, but as a business phone with Dual SIM ?! You get a lot of bang for your buck.

I received the Blue C5L Max with my new Tmobile service. I got the model which has 2gb of RAM. Not a bad phone, really. Basic functions like email, texting and web browsing perform fine with no lag. The phone is very light, but still feels solid in my hand. The extra slot for a 2nd sim card is wonderful. Duel SIM allows me to use both my work and personal lines in one phone.. Incredible feature! Probably not the phone of choice if you're a gamer, or wish to install a bunch of apps. But for anyone over 30? It serves its purpose well.. 4/5 Stars.
