BLU Grand XL Review

BLU Grand XL is a not so powerful Android phone, packing a large 5.5-inches display, an exceptional Quad-Core processing unit running at 1.3 GHz, an 8 mega-pixels back facing camera and a 5 mega-pixels front side camera.

This device comes with a great Quad-Core CPU clocking at 1300 megahertz, bundled in a MediaTek MT6580 system chip with only 1 GB RAM memory which is a little low for a phone of this level. A good point of the BLU Grand XL is its big 8 GB internal storage and an external memory card slot, allowing you to store hundreds of apps without any trouble.

BLU onlymade this cellphone in 16 777 216 color. Talking about its body design materials, this cellphone is majorly manufactured with Aluminum . This cellphone is much lighter than what you expect from a phone of this size. The BLU Grand XL is extremely slim, with a thickness of just 0.36". The BLU Grand XL is quite a compact phone, considering it packs a 5.5 inches screen and it is just 6.2" long and 3.09" wide.

This cellphone features two cameras, an 8 megapixels back-facing camera and a 5 megapixels front camera. The BLU Grand XL also shoots videos up to 1920x1080 (Full HD) at 30 frames per second.

BLU designed this device with a interesting 5.5 inches display, and a resolution of 720 x 1280 (HD), providing this phone with a detailed graphical experience.

This phone uses an inmense 2650 mAh non-removable battery, enough to provide the BLU Grand XL with an extremely long battery life. An issue to consider is that the BLU Grand XL's battery isn't replaceable so you won't be able to replace it when it begins to live shorter, although with such a great capacity you will probably discard this cellphone before that becomes a real problem.

This phone offers wi-fi capability (although it can't share it with other devices acting as a hotspot), 4G (HSPA+) data connection, which is not so fast as LTE-A or LTE networks and 3G fast internet connection, using HSDPA, HSPA and HSUPA technologies. This cellphone doesn't have a sim card, because it doesn't work with GSM connections.

This cellphone also features a couple interesting characteristics such as Bluetooth (4.0 ) and GPS (Global Positioning System), and a couple sensors likeLight Sensor, Proximity Sensor and Accelerometer.
