Comparisons Featuring BLU Grand XL LTE
Short Review
- The BLU Grand XL LTE features a plastic build with dimensions of 157.6 x 78.8 x 8.5 mm and a weight of 182g, making it relatively lightweight and easy to handle.
- It sports a 5.5-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 267 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks.
- Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT6737 chipset with a quad-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A53 CPU and 1GB or 2GB of RAM, providing sufficient power for everyday applications.
- The camera setup includes a 13 MP rear camera capable of recording 1080p video at 30fps and an 8 MP front-facing camera for selfies.
- The 3200mAh battery offers decent longevity but lacks fast or wireless charging options.
- Running on Android 7.0 Nougat, the software experience is straightforward, though it may not include the latest features found in newer versions.
- 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 available in multiple colors: Black, Gold, Rose Gold, and Silver.
- Special features are minimal, with no water resistance or stereo speakers.
- Overall, the BLU Grand XL LTE serves basic smartphone needs with a focus on essential functionalities.
