I've had a few Blackview phones before and they've been well made and good value for money.
This phone won't set the world on fire but would be perfect as an emergency backup phone or for lighter users.
Key specs are Android 7, 720p screen, dual camera (though I wouldn't expect miracles) and a relatively decent battery size, 2800 mAh should last all day with this screen size and underclocked CPU.

That is hopeless and unless all you're doing is making calls or sending texts.

And yet within one hour, you have posted a deal from the same company.

I wouldn't put "dual camera" in the title of the deal, because these super low budget smartphones are likely to fake the dual camera setup by modifying the firmware to fool apps to think there is a second sensor. They essentially apply a "bokeh effect" by applying a fake blur around the perimeter of a selected area.
To test, simply take a picture, then another picture but covering one of the cameras with your finger or sheet of paper and test the focus modifier. Otherwise if the second sensor is actually real, and it can serve the purpose of taking in more light for the picture, then perhaps night shots would look a tiny bit letter than other cheap models. :unamused:

I doubt anyone is going to buy this for taking exceptional pictures

Obviously yeah. I'm merely just pointing out the fact there are fake dual camera smartphones out there. Plus there will always be the naive minority and newbie buyers who expect to pay pennies worth and expect good results.

Ordered one of these last week when they were £30.88, will be fine for my very light use I imagine

Agreed! What was the OP thinking by sharing an amazingly good deal on a deal sharing site! :astonished: Why anyone would want to pay £35 instead of £1000 is beyond me. :angry:

They wouldn't obviously. It's an unrealistic argument. No one would buy a £35 phone if they were in the market for a £1000 phone. There's no debate to be had. "Oh wait you can get a phone for £35 how stupid was I going to buy a £1000 phone when they're so cheap", pointless comparison/pointless debate. I wouldn't get this phone for £35 if I was in the market for a £200 phone, nevermind a £1000 phone. If I was in the market for cheapest phone that's decent then we can talk about £35 phones.

If they're in the market for a £1000 phone, why are they even wasting their time looking on this site ?, just go out and spend £1000 and be done with it. It's only money anyway.

Unconvincing samples of its bokeh effect can be found here: xiaomitoday.com/bla…ne/
