Short Review

  • The BLU G5 Plus features a plastic build with dimensions of 161.4 x 78 x 9.6 mm and weighs 181 grams, making it relatively easy to handle.
  • It sports a 6.0-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 720 x 1440 pixels, providing decent clarity at approximately 268 ppi.
  • Performance is driven by an octa-core 1.6 GHz Cortex-A55 CPU and 2GB of RAM, which allows for basic multitasking and app usage.
  • The rear camera is a 13 MP unit with autofocus, capable of recording video at 1080p@30fps, while the 8 MP front camera serves for selfies.
  • The device is powered by a 3000 mAh battery, which does not support fast or wireless charging.
  • Running on Android 9.0 (Pie), the software experience is straightforward but lacks the latest features.
  • 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 phone is available in multiple colors, including Black, Red, Twilight, and Chameleon Blue.
  • Special features include a headphone jack, but it lacks water resistance and stereo speakers.
  • Overall, the BLU G5 Plus is a basic smartphone suitable for everyday tasks.
