Short Review
- The BLU Life Mark features a compact design with dimensions of 142.4 x 72 x 9.5 mm and a weight of 150g, making it easy to handle.
- Its 5.0-inch IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, providing decent clarity at approximately 294 ppi.
- Performance is powered by a Mediatek MT6735 chipset, with a quad-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A53 CPU and 2GB of RAM, which is adequate for basic tasks.
