Big, bright screen
The Blu Life Play features a large 4.7-inch HD screen (1,280x720) that's bright and easy to read.
Electric blue just for you
The back of the Blu Life Play sports an eye-catching electric-blue hue. The phone also comes in pink, grey, white, and yellow. Located on the back as well is the 8MP camera.
Slim and very trim
At just 0.31 inch thick, the Blu Life Play is almost as thin as the Samsung Galaxy S4.
Strangely placed USB
Unlike most smartphones, the Blu Life Play has a Micro-USB port located on its top edge.
Not many buttons
On the Blu Life Play's right side are the phone's only physical buttons -- volume and power.
Jelly Bean at your disposal
One of the big perks of the Blu Life Play is its modern Android 4.2 Jelly Bean operating system.
A snappy camera app
You'll find that the Blu Life Play's camera app snaps pictures quickly, and it comes with plenty of features and settings.
Basic typing
Don't expect a slick keyboard on the Blu Life Play. Text entry is very basic without even Google gesture typing.
A small speaker
The Blu Life Play has a tiny speaker on its back left corner which is easily muffled when the phone is resting right-side-up on a flat surface.
Wielding dual SIMs
Rare among U.S. smartphones, the Blu Life Play has two SIM card slots (a standard and mini). There's a microSD card slot as well, plus a removable battery.
