Blackview BL7000 AI 5G Rugged Phone Android 15, 24GB+256GB/2TB MTK Dimensity 6300, 6.78" FHD+ 120Hz, 50MP + Night Vision 20MP, 7500mAh/33W, Rugged Smartphone Dual SIM/T-Mobile/NFC/OTG/IP69K Waterproof

This is my 2nd Blackview phone, my first being the BV9800 pro. Had a small problem with this one and after talking with customer service promptly had another brand new replacement sent to me. Funny enough I'm actually typing my review on my old blackview phone which is now currently over 5 years old and still performs just fine! The only thing that caused me to replace it was the software was to outdated and caused me to lose access to some of the phone apps I need. This phone the BL7000 is heavy and large but not excessively for someone with bigger hands. The screen quality is amazing, it's lightning fast, durable and even came with a screen protector already installed so you know. Alina in the customer service was very helpful with resolving my phone issue and because of the great performance of the phones and watches I've bought through them as well as the great customer service, I plan to be a customer for a very long time.

Great price, delivered fast, good phone. The BL7000 takes great pictures in very low light. It is real fast (at everything) and works very well. But it is heavy! The display is a bit weak. The Battery life is exceptional. When you buy this version be sure to delete as much Bloatware (that is preinstalled) as possible. Overall it is the best deal for a low priced quality phone that I could find. Thanks!

I like the idea behind the rugged phone and especially the huge battery but unfortunately the phones themselves are junk and this one is no exception. It would not go past the first screen without the app crashing and going into loops. I turned it off and back on and the same things. The sim card tray does not require a extraction tool which is a nice feature except the "handle" of the card tray literally popped on as I was pulling it out. I had to use a small blade to get the tray out but it came out easily. I called Blackview tech support and the person was very nice and answered very quickly. He offered to help me flash the phone but that would not resolve the sim card tray issue. He suggested I return the phone which is what I am going to do. If someone knows of a respected brand phone that makes a rugged phone with a huge battery please make a suggestions.

great phone and does not need a protective case. The rubber around the frame protects it from falls that has broke other phones.

Very strong phone and it was very easy to use. No need to buy a case because this phone has a strong cover on it own. Despite being large and heavy, this phone performs excellently. The phone's screen is clear, and even with frequent use. The phone's NFC feature, which improves life, is its finest feature. Many phones in this price range are missing this feature. So far, cannot complain about it.

I thought I already wrote a review. This phone is absolutely amazing. I give it a 10 out of 10. It even comes with a night vision camera on it! The price of this is extremely reasonable for what you're getting to hold in your hand. It's a nice big screen and bright, I need this because I have poor vision. I think the sound could be a little louder, but I'm working with it. Other than that, it's 24 GB of RAM and a 256 GB of storage. Plus an SD slot that I put another 256 GB card in which you can't even put in a lot of phones anymore, for some reason some manufacturers are doing away with the micro SD card slots in their phones. I appreciate that this is a Android 15 phone, I use T-Mobile service and so far I believe this phone is batting in 90 out of 100. As I said I think the volume on the voice connections could be a little louder, I'm still working on that though there's a lot to learn on this phone and you can do a lot! Being an Android, you probably already know that. I have found no limitations so far and I am quite happy. I would definitely consider this phone if you are looking for a heavy duty phone, that you can really hang on to, and does what you wanted to do. The battery life is pretty much insane, I charge it every other day and I use it all day long! My previous phone did not do that in any way! The display is amazing, I'm impressed how bright you can make it and just tell clear it is.

The phone is great in every way. I've had no issues with it at all. It is a larger phone and heavy. But feels very durable. Camera is decent and I love the night vision aspect of the camera. I would definitely buy another Blackview phone. I do wish I could find a place to order the charging dock for the BL7000. So far can't find one that will ship to the US.

Well so far so good If you need a fast phone that is rugged that could double as a wheel chalk and may a boat anchor this is it so heavy but so armored. Just be sure u need heavy duty. I have t-mobile and it set up fine was reasonably easy

Llevo un mes con este teléfono y estoy encantado con él. Ya tenía otro teléfono rugerizado que aguantó un grave accidente de coche, sin más que una ligerísima deformación (casi inapreciable), que no le impidió seguir funcionando dos años más. No compré este nuevo por eso -pues espero no tener más accidentes-, sino porque no quiero sustos con una caída o una mojadura fortuita, causas habituales de que haya que cambiar de móvil antes de completar su ciclo de vida, y este parece compacto y consistente a efectos de ofrecer esa seguridad.

The phone is well engineered and the set up was reasonable "pain free" with one exception, see later. The manual supplied was inaccurate showing the wrong location of the power button, not a serious problem but a little annoying. I transferred all apps and data from my old phone with no problems. Its early days to asses the full functionality but I will return to give a more detailed review in a couple of months time, if I remember. The main problem with the set up and the reason I have only given 3 stars was the use of the power button. The phone did not initially start whilst I held down the power button, once I had found it! After a search of the Internet I discovered that in Android 15 the function of the start button is redefined by the operating system, no mention of this in the very brief instructions or the download pdf for PL7000. I find it bizarre that a power button should have other than an on/off functionality. Given price and overall specification I would almost recommend this phone. But please all you phone manufactures and distributers reduce the "bloat Ware" 70 pre installed apps is far to many. Rating edited from 3 to 5 stars after some use and Prompt responses from Blackview product support team. Very good service from the Blackview team.

Sehr gutes Smartphone mit extra großem Display - sehr zu empfehlen. Sehr gutes Display trifft auf leistungsfähigem Prozessor (Mediatek Dimensity 6300 8-Kerne biszu 2.4 MHz). Neben dem 8 GB Arbeitsspeicher kann man noch zusätzlich 16 GB virtuellen RAM dazu freigeben. Kameras in allen Modi top - die 50 MB-Fotos benötigen aber entsprechende 10-15 MB Speicherplatz :-) - die Nachtsicht ist hervorragend, ich nutze die "Nightvision" häufig Nachts im Wald nebst Hund, um Wildtiere zu beobachten. Zum Betriebssystem (Android 15 bzw. Doki) ist sehr leistungsfähig - mit einem preiswerten (Kostenpflichtigem) Service im AI Agent) kann es ähnlich wie ChatGPT verwendet werden, erzeugt aber nicht nur Geschichten sondern auch Videos aus den Stichworten - meine Töchter wollen es ujbedingt ausprobieren. Da ich seit mehr als 20 Jahren berufsbedingt nur sog. "robuste Telefone" verwende, sind mir diese Funktionen (Staubschutz, Wasserfest, Sturzsicher, lange Akkulaufzeit, Temperaturtoleranz, etc.) alle sehr wichtig und sind hier auch einwandfrei (ist mein 3. Blackview). ich habe zwei Bilder beigefügt, um die Leistungsfähigkeit der Kamera bei 50 MB-Bildern darzustellen. Der Storch ist jeweils BIldmittig, einmal etwas herangezoomt, das weitere Bild dient zur Darstellung der Entfernung (ca. 200 Meter) das Display ist von Hause aus mit einer Schutzfolie ausgestattet.

I’m quite amazed just how good this phone is. I have had it for a few months now and it performs better than any other phone I have purchased around this price. Build feels like a far more expensive phone, it really is rugged and has been dropped a few times including in water without issue. Night vision camera is interesting but other than a quick play with it, not something I would use. Downside it is heavy and chunky, but sits nice in my hand and still fits in the pocket of my jeans.

Could of been a nice phone if it hadnt of had faulty NFC. Tech support for the phone is worthless as most of what the say doesnt work. The 2 year warrenty isnt worth anything either as the only answer they have is ask Amazon for a refund
