BLU Energy Diamond Review

Score: 50.2 / 100

BLU Energy Diamond is a mid-to-low level phone, coming with a quite big 5" screen, a high-tech Quad-Core processing unit speeding at 1.3 gigahertz, and 2 cameras, a 5 megapixels back facing camera and a 2 mega-pixels front facing camera.

The BLU Energy Diamond is sold in lots of colors, black, blue, gold, gray and pink. The BLU Energy Diamond is only 5.81" long and 2.81" wide, but it's still able to fit a a 5 inches display. The BLU Energy Diamond isn't very light for a device of this size, weighting 6 oz.

BLU packed this phone with a good level 5 inches display, and a 480 x 854 resolution, providing this phone with a mid level graphical experience.

BLU decided to build this device with an extremely powerful Quad-Core processing unit ticking at 1.3 gigahertz, packed into the MediaTek MT6580 chip with only 1 GB RAM memory which is a little bit low for a cellphone this powerful. A nice point of the BLU Energy Diamond is its quite large 8 GB internal storage memory and a slot for an external memory card, which allows you to store hundreds of games and applications without worrying about space.

This phone has two cameras, a 5 mega-pixels back-facing camera and a 2 megapixels front camera. this phone's back-facing camera has a maximum 2.8 aperture so it has difficulties taking nice pictures in low-light conditions. It is also able to capture videos in 1280x720 (HD) at 30 frames per second.

This cellphone has WiFi connectivity (and it can be provided to other devices around, acting as a wireless router), HSPA+ (4G) data connection, that is not as fast as LTE-A or LTE networks and 3G fast internet connection, supported by HSDPA technologies. This phone has two Micro SIM cards so it is able to work with 2 different phone lines or carriers.

This cellphone also features a couple useful characteristics like Bluetooth (4.0 ), GPS (Global Positioning System) and Radio, and a couple sensors likeLight Sensor, Proximity Sensor and Accelerometer.

This phone comes with a 4000 mAh big capacity Li - Polymer non-removable battery, enough to provide this phone with an incredible battery life. An issue to take into consideration is that the BLU Energy Diamond's battery is non-replaceable so you can't throw it away and buy a new one when it starts to last shorter, even though having 4000 mAh you will probably replace this phone before it becomes an issue.
