So I'm in the market for a phone, looking to go to t-mobile and get a Blu Win HD. Is there a better phone in the price range?
Sub $200 phone.

That all depends if your intent is to go for a Windows based phone or if you are open to Android.
Currently, the Blu is the entry level for Windows based smartphones. Not that it's bad per se. In fact, at that price range I think the only viable alternative would be the Motorola Moto G.
Here's a comparison chart for the two: GSMArena
If you're looking to spend even less, you might be want to consider snagging this one on Amazon for $155.
T-Mobile might even have a discount if you bring in your own phone.

I bought my wife a 2014 Moto G. Darn nice phone.
As for Blu, they have some really nice new models either just out or will be out soon. The Studio Energy looks interesting, but I am waiting on the One XL. My sister in law has the Studio 6.0 and loves it.

Moto phones are probably the best budget phones on andriod.
If you're going to do windows and you wanna get a mid range take a look at the Nokia 635, it's going for like $50 right now which is really freaking low, especially for what it offers.

The Moto G looks promising but the price on that Win HD might be hard to pass up. We'll see when I can afford it in the next couple weeks. I'm open to more suggestions, Windows or Android.
I have many back up phones
NOkia 635, Samsung Light, Moto E.
Go with the Moto G
Windows is...meh
I got bored and tired of it.
I feel like windows is worse than apple.
You're limited plus their aren't enough apps, you get bored of using the phone quickly.
Moto phones are vanilla android or w/e you wanna call them. It's clean, no bloatware so it runs really well.
Avoid Samsung, full of bloatware and their interface is terrible and bogs the system down.

As someone who works in the EMM field, I can guarantee you that the market is not headed in that direction at this time. Maybe in 5-10 years, but not now. People are still opting for Android and iOS smartphones (in that order).
Windows Phone has barely made a dent in the market so far.
