BLU Advance Unlocked Phone Black
Amazon's catalog no longer lists this product (checked 2026-11-02). The name comes from the link HN users posted.
I downgraded too, also from a Sony Xperia to a $70 Blu Life Advance 4.0. It's got a crappy camera and screen, but it handles tethering 4g, music, can run apps and browse the internet. And dual sim + unlocked. I really can't imagine spending $500 - $700 on a phone again, the cheap end is improving all the time.
