Comparisons Featuring BLU C5L
Short Review
- The BLU C5L features a compact design with dimensions of 144.3 x 72.5 x 10.3 mm and a weight of 153g, making it easy to handle.
- Its 5.0-inch IPS LCD display has a resolution of 480 x 854 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 196 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks.
- Performance is powered by a quad-core 1.4 GHz Cortex-A53 CPU and 1GB of RAM, suitable for light usage but may struggle with multitasking.

- The 2000mAh battery provides limited longevity and lacks fast or wireless charging options.
- Running on Android 8.1 Oreo (Go edition), the software is optimized for lower-end hardware, ensuring smoother performance.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
