Sometimes in a person’s life, they just need a huge phone. And I’m not talking Nexus 6 huge — think bigger. Like, sometimes you just want to be able to talk on something more along the lines of a Nexus 7, right? I mean, even if that’s not something you actually want to do, it’s now an option with the new Studio 7.0 HD from Blu. Yes, this is a 7-inch phone.

So it’s a big phone with otherwise underwhelming specs. I’m sure there’s a gap that a phone like this will fill nicely, assuming you or someone you know actually needs a phone the size of a tablet. At least it eliminates the need for having two separate devices, right?
Anyway, the Studio 7.0 HD LTE is available today on Amazon. It looks like they only have the white one in stock right now, so hopefully the other colors will show up soon. Also, I have a review unit on hand, so expect to see my thoughts on it early next week. If you can’t wait, though, here’s a sneak peek: it’s pretty freakin’ big.
