BLU VIVO 8 brings flagship-level specs for as low as $199

BLU took the wraps off the VIVO 8 today. The device figures to be their most compelling launch yet just based on sheer value.

It’s a $299 beast of a thing, with the highlights of its specs sheet being a nice 5.5-inch Full HD display, MediaTek’s Helio P10 Octa-Core Chipset, 4GB of RAM, 64GB of storage, a 13MP rear camera, a 16MP selfie-focused variant, a fingerprint sensor, and more.

But it sounds even better when you consider a limited time deal BLU is offering to kick things off. Between Thursday, August 31st ending September 1st 11:59pm (EST), BLU will knock $100 off its price tag, making your ticket to glory just $199.

The device is actually already up on Amazon and shipping to doorsteps as soon as tomorrow, but you’ll want to wait until that $199 price tag hits if you want the savings. What’s a day to wait for a 33% discount, right? It’ll even come with headphones, a screen protector, and a protective case.

One last note: you’ll want to ensure the device is compatible with your network of choice. This is a GSM affair, so Sprint and Verizon customers needn’t apply. For everyone else, be sure to check out all the details in the full specs sheet above.
