Comparisons Featuring BLU View 3
Short Review
- The BLU View 3 features a simple design with dimensions of 160.2 x 76.7 x 9 mm and a weight of 178g, making it comfortable to hold.
- Its 6.0-inch IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 720 x 1440 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 268 ppi, suitable for basic tasks but lacking HDR support.
- Powered by a Mediatek MT6762 Helio P22 chipset and an octa-core 2.0 GHz Cortex-A53 CPU, the performance is adequate for everyday use, supported by 3GB of RAM.
- The rear camera includes a 13 MP sensor capable of recording 1080p video at 30fps, while the 8 MP front camera serves well for selfies.
- The 3400 mAh battery provides decent longevity but lacks fast or wireless charging options.
- Running on Android 11, the software experience is straightforward without any significant customizations.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 5.1, and USB Type-C 2.0, though it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The phone does not feature stereo speakers but retains a headphone jack for wired audio.
- Overall, the BLU View 3 is a basic smartphone that meets essential needs without any standout features.
