BLU Life Play Mini Review

L190U (L190U)     See other variants reviews Score: 47.8 / 100

BLU Life Play Mini is a decent quality Android device, having a medium 4" multi-touch screen, a fast 1000 MHz Dual-Core processing unit, a 3.2 megapixels back side camera and a 0.3 mega-pixels front-facing camera.

This phone is much lighter than what you expect from a cellphone like this. The BLU Life Play Mini is just 0.37" thick, making it one of the thinnest phones out there. BLU made the BLU Life Play Mini in a wide range of color options: gray, pink, yellow, blue and white.

BLU designed this device with a very good 4 inches display, and a 800 x 480 resolution, giving this cellphone a very good image quality. This display uses IPS LCD capacitive technology, and can detect multiple fingers at the same time.

BLU equipped the BLU Life Play Mini with a great performance Dual-Core processor speeding at 1 GHz and 512 MB of RAM memory. Graphic rendering often uses a lot of CPU time, so it has an ARM Mali-400 graphics processing unit working at 500 MHz to help the processor with those tasks. This phone comes with areasonable 4 GB internal memory, which is enough for most users considering it also has an SD extension slot to store songs, photographs and videos.

This phone counts with wi-fi connection (and it can be provided to other devices around, acting as a mobile hotspot), HSPA+ 4G connection type, that is not as fast as LTE or LTE-A 4G networks and 3G fast connection type, over HSDPA, HSUPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. This phone uses 2 SIM cards to be able to to work with two different phone lines in the same device.

This device has two cameras, a 3.2 megapixels back camera and a 0.3 MP front-facing camera. It also captures 1280x720 HD videos at 30 fps. To complete the camera, it also features flash and geo tagging.

This device also includes a few useful characteristics such as Bluetooth (4.0), GPS and FM Radio, and lots of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.

This phone features a medium 1400 mAh Li-Ion replaceable battery, which is quite poor for a phone like this. According to BLU, this phone has an aproximate 17 hs talk time and a 700 hours stand by time.

The BLU Life Play Mini is being sold for about $ 249, which is not cheap for a device this level.
