Phones, Blackview A30 SIM-Free Smartphone Unlocked, Android 8.1 Oreo 5.5-Inch with 2GB RAM and 16GB ROM, Dual SIM Mobile Phones 3G, Face Unlock, UK Version - Black

Hi,I am writing this review after 3 months of usage. Bought this one after my little one smashed my Samsung Note 3 on the wall. Took my time to look in the Amazon and read the reviews. Finally bought this Black view A30, 2018 model. Very good mobile for the cost of £70. Battery life is OK as it depends on mobile usage. People who use social media throughout the day should charge the mobile twice at least. I am not an FB or WhatsApp freak. I charge once in the morning and the charge is adequate in the mobile to check the WhatsApp messages/videos after my work in the evening. In simple words - This mobile does the job. Picture quality and screen resolution is Ok. Don't expect picture quality and screen resolution to be like a high-end mobile in the market. Build quality and screen resolution are good enough for the price. Easy for day to day use. After using this, i have already recommended to some of my friends who are looking to buy a good mobile at a cost-effective price. Definitely a strong competitor to the costly ones available in the market. mobile phone comes with a protective cover and it is good. My son snatched the mobile and dropped it from the car window in the parking space. Nothing happend to my mobile as the protective case safe gaurded the mobile. Go ahead and buy this if you are looking for a good, cheap alternative one.-Senthil Kaur , UK

Unfortunately this phone has a headphone socket that requires a Chinese "4 pole" plug. If you want to listen to music through the headphones without the jack popping out, you will need to buy an adaptor from China or use bluetooth headphones. You can still insert a standard uk headphone plug but it will just pop out because it's not long enough to be held in place. Other than that, the phone is good value and everything works......but I would have probably bought a different one if I had known that since I use headphones all the time. Not a very honourable seller and shame on Amazon for highlighting this choice tbh.

After two weeks of using this phone, all I can say that it doest the job. Don't be fool and but high expectation though.Its battery can last for about 4 hours with normal use. The camera is the worst thing in it as the image isn't clear enough even if the objects are very close. I would recommend this phone of you want to use it as a second option if your smart phone gets broken or something as in my case. Haha

Bought the A30 as a replacement for an old phone and I am the least techno of anyone. Phone was easy to set up - have a look at youtube to see how to get the back off (is a tad fiddly but it won't break!). I did have a fairly major prob getting the phone to recognise the Sim card but the customer services were great and sent me another phone which worked fine (big thanks to them they were great-just be aware that they are abroad but will answer questions in a timely way-just give them as much info/pictures as possible if you have any issues). The phone has been easy to set up easy to use. It's faster than expected to charge up as well. For me, the screen has very clear definition and great that large. Camera works well with good definition. Not tried internet as yet but don't forsee any probs. A30 does what it says it can do-great phone at great price.

Disappointed. Got it as daughter's first phone. Very glitchy. Screen not sensitive. Have to tap it several times to get any reaction. Changed it to a different brand after 6 months.

Found the screen to be a bit less responsive than my old LG - especially in the corners - and the instruction booklet could be a lot better - took me ages to work out the sim went in sideways instead of lengthways like every other phone I've had but overall 4/5

I like the style. Unfortunately, the touch screen does not always work on the right hand side eg to delete or letter P, I am unable to share emojis on facebook comments on friends post

Im very Happy with my buy i was a little suspicious about it, but now im absolutely love it the only problem is the battery life and a setup is need to keep the app running in the back ground other wise it will not give a notification
