BLU Dash 5.5 Review

BLU Dash 5.5 is a mid-end phone, provisioned with a really big 5.5-inches multi touch screen, a very fast Quad-Core CPU speeding at 1300 megahertz, a 5 mega-pixels back side camera and a 0.3 mega-pixels front-facing camera. That's everything we have to say? No, it's just the shortest summary on earth.

BLU decided to power this cellphone with an exceptional Quad-Core CPU clocking at 1300 megahertz with only 512 MB RAM which is a little low for such a powerful phone. To help with graphic intensive apps, this device also counts with an ARM Mali-400 graphic processing unit speeding at 500 megahertz. This phone has a fair 4 GB internal storage memory, which is adequate for the average user knowing that this phone also has a slot for an SD memory card to store songs, photos and videos and even some games and apps that allow being installed in the external memory.

The BLU Dash 5.5 just has 6.12 inches long, but it manages to hold a 5.5 inches screen. The BLU Dash 5.5 has a gorgeous design, with a thickness of just 0.39".
