We all know that Chinese phones are getting cheaper and better all the time, but do the Blackview BV2000 specs hit the mark?
Another sub $100 smartphone? Yup, Blackview have released the full hardware specifications of the BV2000 which we wrote about earlier in the week and online stores already have the handset up for just $74.99. So is it worth it?
Blackview have taken a good hard look at what Meizu have done with the 5-inch M2, and decided to give it a go themselves with the BV2000. They built their phone with a 5-inch HD display, a Mediatek MT6735 chipset and a couple of cheerful colours.
It’s a solid start but the specs don’t really stack up the further down the list we go. The BV2000 comes with only 1GB RAM, 8GB memory, WCDMA support, and 8 mega-pixel main camera. In comparison the Meizu M2 costs as little as $100 (if you shop around) and comes with a 13 mega-pixel sensor, 2GB RAM and LTE.
We applaud Blackview for taking up the sub $100 gauntlet but we feel that competition have raised the bar a little out of their reach. What do you guys think?
Fort he price and specs it’s quiet good. A good phone if you need one before buying into better specs.
nah … one should go for m2 instead !
i’d prefer a cheaper soc (mt6735) but 16gb ram.
If someone is interested most likely price is important at the point so maybe it does make sense for some to go with the blacview. We migth be biased to the meizu for the spec’s ((i’m myself)) but in real world there people which can not make difference between SoC and Sock, will only care if the phones does 4G to do YouTube and Instagram and FB and that’s it.
