Summary
- The BLU Dash, released in 2012, features a compact build with dimensions of 103 x 56 x 12 mm and weighs 96g, while the Nokia 8000 4G, launched in late 2020, is slightly larger at 132.2 x 56.5 x 12.3 mm and weighs 110.2g.
- Both devices have a 2.8-inch TFT display with a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels, but the Nokia supports 16 million colors compared to the BLU's 256, enhancing visual quality.
- In terms of performance, the BLU Dash is powered by a 650 MHz Cortex-A9 processor with 512MB RAM, whereas the Nokia 8000 4G offers a more capable quad-core 1.1 GHz Cortex-A7 with 4GB RAM, resulting in better multitasking.
- Both smartphones have a 2 MP rear camera and lack a front camera, but the Nokia's software experience with KaiOS 2.5 is more modern compared to the outdated Android 2.3 on the BLU.
- Battery capacity is also a differentiator, with the Nokia housing a 1500mAh battery versus the BLU's 1110mAh, providing longer usage time.
