Comparisons Featuring BLU Studio 5.0 C
Short Review
- The BLU Studio 5.0 C features a plastic build with dimensions of 145 x 73 x 9.7 mm and a weight of 170g, making it relatively lightweight and easy to handle.
- Its 5.0-inch TFT display has a resolution of 480 x 854 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 196 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks but lacks sharpness for detailed visuals.
- Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT6572 chipset with a dual-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU and 4GB of RAM, providing sufficient power for everyday applications but may struggle with more demanding tasks.
- The rear camera is 5 MP, capable of recording video at 720p@30fps, while the front lacks a dedicated selfie camera.
- The battery capacity is 1800 mAh, which may require frequent recharging given the device's performance demands.
- Running on Android 4.4.2 (KitKat), the software experience is basic and lacks the features of more recent versions.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 3.0, and microUSB 2.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The device is available in multiple colors, including Black, Blue, Orange, Pink, White, and Yellow.
- There is no water resistance, and the lack of stereo speakers may limit audio quality.
- Overall, the BLU Studio 5.0 C is a basic smartphone suitable for users with minimal requirements.
