Comparisons Featuring BLU Studio 5.0 E
Short Review
- The BLU Studio 5.0 E features a basic design with dimensions of 146 x 74 x 10.1 mm and a weight of 174 grams, available in black and white.
- Its 5.0-inch TFT display has a resolution of 480 x 854 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 196 ppi, which may not provide the sharpest visuals.
- Performance is powered by a dual-core 1.0 GHz Cortex-A7 processor, supported by 4GB of RAM and a Mali-400 GPU, suitable for basic tasks but limited for demanding applications.
- The rear camera is 3.15 MP, capable of recording 720p video at 30fps, while the front lacks a selfie camera.
- The 2100 mAh battery capacity offers limited longevity, with no fast charging or wireless charging options.
- Running on Android 4.2 (Jelly Bean), the software experience may feel outdated compared to newer versions.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 3.0, and a microUSB 2.0 port, but it lacks 5G and NFC capabilities.
- The absence of water resistance and stereo speakers further limits its appeal.
- Overall, the BLU Studio 5.0 E is a basic smartphone suitable for essential functions.
