Comparisons Featuring BLU Studio Energy 2
Short Review
- The BLU Studio Energy 2 features a compact design with dimensions of 144 x 71.2 x 10.1 mm and a weight of 176g, available in black and white.
- It sports a 5.0-inch Super AMOLED display with a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, providing decent clarity at approximately 294 ppi.
- Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT6735 chipset, a quad-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A53 CPU, and 1.5GB of RAM, which may limit multitasking capabilities.
- The rear camera offers 8 MP with autofocus and can record video at 1080p, while the 5 MP front camera is suitable for basic selfies.
- A standout feature is the substantial 5000 mAh battery, which supports extended usage but lacks fast charging or wireless capabilities.
- The device runs on Android 5.0 (Lollipop), providing a basic software experience without the latest features.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The phone is equipped with a microUSB 2.0 port and a standard headphone jack.
- Overall, the BLU Studio Energy 2 offers solid battery life and a functional display, but its performance and camera capabilities are modest.
