BLU Dash 5.0 Review

Score: 47.5 / 100

BLU Dash 5.0 is a decent quality Android cellphone, packed with a fast 1300 MHz Dual-Core processor, a quite big 5" touch-screen, and 2 cameras, a 5 MP back facing camera and a 0.3 megapixels front facing camera. Let's take a better sight of what this cellphone has to offer.

BLU equipped this device with a powerful 1.3 GHz Dual-Core CPU with 512 MB RAM. Graphic intensive applications and games generally uses a lot of processing power, so this phone counts with an ARM Mali-400 MP1 graphic processing unit working at 320 MHz to help with that calculations. The BLU Dash 5.0 comes with a 4 GB internal memory, an average amount that should be fine for most users considering that it also has an external memory card slot to store songs, photos and videos and even some games and apps that allow being installed in the external memory.

This phone is for sale in a variety of colors: black, gray, yellow, blue, red and white. This cellphone has a beautiful design, with a thickness of just 0.37 inches. While this cellphone is only 5.75" long and 2.78" wide, it manages to pack a 5 inches display. It seems like BLU forgot about weight optimization in this 6.17 ounces phone.

BLU equipped this phone with a good level 5-inches screen, and a 854 x 480 resolution, which makes everything look quite vivid. This screen uses LCD capacitive technology, and allows multi-touch gestures.

This device has two cameras, a 5 mega-pixels back side camera and a 0.3 MP front camera. This cellphone also captures HD 1280x720 videos. This phone also counts with flash.

This cellphone uses a 2000 mAh medium removable battery providing this cellphone with a not very long battery duration. BLU claims this cellphone has a 24 hs talk time and a 900 hs stand by time.

This phone offers Wi-Fi connectivity (and it can be shared with other devices acting as a modem or router), HSPA+ 4G internet connection, which is not as fast as LTE-A or LTE 4G networks and 3G fast connectivity, supported by HSDPA and EDGE technologies. This phone uses 2 SIM cards so it is able to use 2 different phone numbers in the same phone.

This phone also features a few useful features as Bluetooth and GPS (Global Positioning System), and a couple sensors likeLight Sensor, Proximity Sensor and Accelerometer.

BLU sells this phone for $ 113, which is expensive for comparing with similar phones.
