Comparisons Featuring BQ Aquaris U Lite
Short Review
- The BQ Aquaris U Lite features a compact design with dimensions of 145 x 71.5 x 8.3 mm and a weight of 140g, making it lightweight and 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.
- Performance is driven by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 425 chipset with a quad-core CPU, complemented by 2GB of RAM, which is adequate for basic tasks.

- Running on Android 6.0.1, it can be upgraded to 7.0, providing a relatively modern software experience.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.2, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The device is equipped with a microUSB 2.0 port for charging and data transfer.
