I had a couple of Blus in the past. Both great value for money phones, sold by Amazon, only problem I had was their battery life but this one has a 3,700 mAh Monster battery so I think it won't be a problem.

Is spyware still a concern with Blu phones? Are others such as xiaomi clean of spyware, or is it just a chance you have to take when importing phones?

Haven't heard of any spyware on xiaomi phones. Some resellers put their own rom on xiaomi phones (which may contain all kind of junk) so if you buy one make sure you buy a phone with genuine global rom on it.

WARNING :. There were and are numerous reports this company pre installs malware and spyware on thier phones. Hence the reason for being very cheap!!!

Cheap, surely if you can find a custom ROM for this the spyware would go? Don't think any banking apps would work then though...

You can get away without a custom ROM if you would rather not that route, just need to do a dedicated update on one app from its makers site (and that's assuming it's an affected version!)
