Comparisons Featuring BLU G50 Mega
Short Review
- The BLU G50 Mega features a plastic build with dimensions of 156.1 x 72.5 x 9.3 mm and a weight of 190g, making it relatively lightweight.
- It sports a 6.5-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 720 x 1600 pixels, providing a decent viewing experience at approximately 270 ppi.
- Performance is driven by an octa-core 1.6 GHz Cortex-A55 CPU and 2GB of RAM, which is adequate for basic tasks but may struggle with heavy multitasking.
- The rear camera setup includes a 12 MP lens capable of 1080p video recording, while an 8 MP front camera serves for selfies.
- The device is powered by a 4000 mAh battery, supporting 10W charging, which ensures moderate usage throughout the day.
- It runs on Android 10, offering a straightforward user interface without additional bloatware.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.1, but it lacks 5G support.
- The absence of wireless charging and water resistance may limit its appeal to some users.
- Available in multiple colors, including Black, Blue, Red, and Green, it offers some personalization options.
- Overall, the BLU G50 Mega is a basic smartphone suitable for everyday use.
