The two software "sound enhancement" settings Blu offers to enhance volume barely make a difference. And although hearing music and video is a bit easier, there's not enough backup volume for loud environments. I can barely hear the other party whenever I extend the device an arm's length away. The audio speaker is simply too low, especially for phone calls. The back houses a small, circular audio speaker, too. It collects smudges and fingerprints, so prepare to spend time wiping those away if those are an eyesore to you. The back cover is made of a plastic with a matte finish.

You seriously can't find that low a price on any modern smartphone. Sixty dollars (or $50 for the 8GB version with ads), however, is cheap enough to justify buying the phone for a kid, or an overseas guest or maybe even as an emergency backup.
The 155.0 cc BS VI engine of R15 V3.0 is mated with 6 gears, producing. The bike is available in 4 variants with 4 colour options. Its camera is mediocre, its performance is inconsistent, and call volume on audio speaker is too low to listen to comfortably. The Yamaha R15 V3.0 is a Sports bike available at a starting price of Rs. It'd be a tempting price for Prime members who cast a blind eye to ads with one exception: the R1 HD isn't very good.
That's what I wanted to know about the ad-supported Amazon Prime version of Blu's R1 HD phone, which knocks down the original retail price - originally $110 for the 16GB model and $100 for 8GB version - by showing you advertisements on the phone's lock screen.
