Ideal first phone for my child starting secondary. Very reasonably priced for the specification, looks classy and has got everything a young person needs. My child is very happy. Battery lasts ages, charges quickly. We had issues with the charging port, which sunk into the case after 2 months of using, but the contact with the manufacter was excellent and the device was promptly replaced. Would definitely recommend. It is the third device from Blackview in our family and we are very pleased with our choices.

Great robust phone, good camera, sound is not superb but adequate.Plenty of memory and quick enough.Comes with a thin protective case and a screen protector. I used my own heavy duty case as I'm a bloke with butter fingers.Highly recommend this phone.

I was expecting nothing ok for. Now .But as it turns out this phone is much better .Well worth the price.

After purchasing a Blackview color 8 phone to replace my ageing honor mobile I was so impressed with it I decided to buy my wife a similar spec phone. I chose the Blackview wave 8 which arrived and is equally as good as the color 8 with slightly less specification. My wife is delighted with it she loves the ease,speed, and clarity of her new phone particularly the quality of the camera. For the price I paid it is up there with much more expensive makes hence 5 stars

The media could not be loaded. I buy this phone on month March and I use for one or two times and now it doesn’t charge no more. I don’t know why after two months stopped Work.

I bought this as a temporary replacement for my sons broken phone. The plan was buy him a new phone for Christmas and this one was just to fill a couple of weeks but my son loves this phone so much that he no longer wants an expensive Samsung phone!It's much better than we expected, it's got good storage and the camera is decent, it does everything that an expensive phone does, without the cost!It looks great too, has a large screen size and comes with a case and already fitted with a screen protector plus a spare one!I paid under £90 for this phone and it's an absolute bargain!My 11yr old son thinks it's marvellous, he can play all his mobile games, steam music and watch all the videos on YouTube and Tiktok.Overall, we are very pleased with this phone and would highly recommend!

very good and easy to use

I bought this as an urgent replacement for a 5 year old Samsung A90 phone that died. With lots of key systems on my old phone I needed something back up and running quickly.Good: Came quickly and worked to get me back into some key accounts. The phone and screen look good at first glance and has Android 14. Closer scrutiny of the screen does reveal a bit of a lack of image quality but its definitely passable. I'm not going to extensively talk about camera etc. as I 've bought it as a stopgap but some pluses are:SD Card slot, Dual SIM i believe but I am using it with the SD Card so not sure I have space, fingerprint sensor on side OK, comes with a free screen protector and case. Nicely packaged if it was a gift I guess.I was able to add my 512Gb SD Card and Sim no problem. Nice size, slightly slim feel which helps with one handed use. It does actually feel like a decent quality item.What I didn't notice: Its a 4G phone - I wouldn't have chosen this if I had seen that.Issues I am having: Videos recorded on my old phone play very glitchy then crash. Fundamental apps used on my old phone such as WhatsApp and Waze crash. Trying to use Waze this evening it crashed out 10 times in an hour so that I had to revert to a tiny work phone to get me to where I was going on time. Also, very often there is so much lag that I have pressed something which then triggers an unintended consequence.OOTB it seems like performance mode is not enabled. I found this and enabled it which makes it much snappier but unfortunately all the above happened when this was enabled...Conclusion: I think it is probably the processor that is underpowered although the lack of 5G might contribute. If you want a nice phone but only want to use it for calls and lightweight apps - maybe
