Comparisons Featuring BLU Vivo 4.3
Short Review
- The BLU Vivo 4.3 features a compact design with dimensions of 128 x 66 x 9.3 mm and a weight of 120 grams, making it lightweight and easy to handle.
- It sports a 4.3-inch Super AMOLED display with a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels, providing decent color reproduction and clarity at approximately 217 ppi.
- Performance is driven by a dual-core 1.0 GHz Cortex-A9 processor and 4GB of storage paired with 512MB of RAM, which may limit multitasking capabilities.
- The rear camera offers an 8 MP sensor with autofocus, capable of recording 720p video, while the front-facing camera is a basic 1.3 MP.
- The 1600 mAh battery provides moderate longevity but lacks fast charging or wireless capabilities.
- Running on Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich), the software experience may feel outdated compared to newer versions.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g and Bluetooth 3.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The device is available in black and white colors, though it lacks water resistance.
- Overall, the BLU Vivo 4.3 is a basic smartphone with essential features suitable for casual use.
