Comparisons Featuring BLU Grand M2
Short Review
- The BLU Grand M2 features a compact design with dimensions of 144.9 x 72.1 x 9.4 mm and a weight of 160g, available in multiple colors including Black, Gold, and Silver.
- Its 5.2-inch IPS LCD display has a resolution of 480 x 854 pixels, providing a pixel density of approximately 188 ppi.
- Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT6580 chipset, a quad-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU, and 1GB of RAM, which may limit multitasking capabilities.
- The camera setup includes a 5 MP rear camera capable of recording 1080p video at 30fps and a 5 MP front camera for selfies.
- The battery capacity is 2600 mAh, with no fast charging or wireless charging options available.
- Running on Android 7.0 Nougat, the software experience is basic and lacks advanced features.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The device is equipped with a microUSB 2.0 port and retains a headphone jack for audio.
