Comparisons Featuring BLU Studio 5.5C
Short Review
- The BLU Studio 5.5C features a plastic build with dimensions of 155 x 79 x 9.9 mm and a weight of 178g, making it relatively comfortable to hold.
- Its 5.5-inch LCD display has a resolution of 480 x 854 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 178 ppi, which may appear less sharp compared to modern standards.
- Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT6582 chipset with a quad-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU and 4GB of RAM, suitable for basic tasks but limited for demanding applications.
- The rear camera is a 5 MP unit capable of recording 720p video at 30fps, while the front lacks a selfie camera.
- The battery capacity is 2820 mAh, providing moderate usage time without fast charging or wireless capabilities.
- Running on Android 4.4 (KitKat), it can be upgraded to 5.0 (Lollipop), offering a dated software experience.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0, but it lacks 5G support and NFC.
- The device is available in black and blue colors, with no water resistance features.
- Overall, the BLU Studio 5.5C is a basic smartphone with essential features but limited performance and display quality.
