Short Review
- The BLU Vivo 4.8 HD features a sleek design with dimensions of 137 x 70 x 6.9 mm and a lightweight build at 135g.
- It sports a 4.8-inch Super AMOLED display with a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, providing decent clarity at approximately 306 ppi.
- Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT6589T chipset, a quad-core 1.5 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU, and 1GB of RAM, which is adequate for basic tasks.
- The camera system includes an 8 MP rear camera with autofocus and 1080p video recording capabilities, alongside a 5 MP front-facing camera for selfies.
- The 2000 mAh battery offers standard usage without fast or wireless charging options.
- Running on Android 4.2 (Jelly Bean), the software experience is somewhat dated but functional.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 3.0, though it lacks 5G and NFC support.
- The device is available in multiple colors: White, Black, Pink, and Yellow.
- Notably, it does not feature stereo speakers, but it does include a headphone jack.
- Overall, the BLU Vivo 4.8 HD is a compact device with essential features for everyday use.
