Comparisons Featuring BLU Studio XL2
Short Review
- The BLU Studio XL2 features a large 6.0-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, providing decent clarity at approximately 245 ppi.
- Its build dimensions are 165.7 x 83.6 x 9.1 mm, weighing 200 grams, and it is available in Gray, Gold, and Rose Gold colors.
- Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT6737 chipset with a quad-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A53 CPU and 2GB of RAM, which is suitable for basic tasks but may struggle with demanding applications.
- The camera system includes a 13 MP rear camera capable of 1080p video recording and a 5 MP front camera for selfies.
- Battery life is robust with a 4900 mAh capacity, although it lacks fast charging and wireless capabilities.
- The device runs on Android 6.0 Marshmallow, offering a straightforward user experience without the latest features.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.1, and microUSB 2.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The absence of stereo speakers and the presence of a headphone jack may appeal to some users.
- Overall, the BLU Studio XL2 is a functional device with a focus on basic performance and battery life.
