Comparisons Featuring BLU C5 Max
Short Review
- The BLU C5 Max features a simple design with dimensions of 159.2 x 76.5 x 9.8 mm and a weight of 164g, available in multiple colors including Black, Blue, Red, Green, and Bronze.
- Its 5.7-inch IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 720 x 1440 pixels with a pixel density of approximately 282 ppi, although it lacks HDR support.
- Performance is driven by a quad-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU paired with 1GB of RAM, which is suitable for basic tasks but may struggle with more demanding applications.
- The camera system includes a 5 MP rear camera with a secondary 0.3 MP depth sensor, capable of recording video at 720p@30fps, while the front-facing camera also has a resolution of 5 MP.
- The device is powered by a 2700 mAh battery, which does not support fast or wireless charging.
- Running on Android 11 (Go edition), the software is optimized for lower-end hardware, providing a streamlined experience.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.1, and a microUSB 2.0 port, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The absence of stereo speakers is noted, but it does include a headphone jack.
- Overall, the BLU C5 Max is a basic smartphone that meets essential needs without advanced features.
