BLU has started rolling out a new software update to R1 HD. The update installs latest monthly security patch in BLU R1 HD and is being pushed as we speak.
Arriving as software version 8.5, the update brings June monthly security patch. It also tags along regular bug fixes and system improvements.
As is the case with OTA updates, it may take a while to reach your device. Alternately you can check manually by heading to Settings > About device > System update. Before installing the update, ensure that your phone is at least 50 percent charged and connected to a WiFi network.
Earlier this month, the BLU R1 HD received another update which installs Band 12 support for T-Mobile alongside support for VoLTE (Voice over LTE).
