Comparisons Featuring BLU Studio X9 HD
Short Review
- The BLU Studio X9 HD features a compact design with dimensions of 143 x 73 x 10.1 mm and a weight of 144 grams, 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, though it lacks HDR support.
- Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT6580 chipset with a quad-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU and 1GB of RAM, which is suitable for basic tasks but may struggle with demanding applications.
- The rear camera captures images at 8 MP and supports 1080p video recording at 30fps, while a 5 MP front camera is available for selfies.
- The 2000 mAh battery capacity is modest, and it does not support fast or wireless charging.
- Running on Android 8.1 Oreo (Go edition), the software is optimized for lower-end hardware, ensuring smoother operation.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0, but it lacks 5G and NFC capabilities.
- The device is available in black, white, and blue colors, although it does not feature water resistance.
- Overall, the BLU Studio X9 HD is a basic smartphone that meets essential needs without advanced features.
