BLU Studio 5.0S Review

BLU Studio 5.0S is a mid-end Android phone, which features a pretty large 5 inches touch-screen, an extremely fast Quad-Core processor ticking at 1.2 GHz, and 2 cameras, an 8 MP back side camera and a 2 MP front camera. We will get a better understanding of this phone's characteristics when we get into more details.

BLU equipped this phone with a Qualcomm Snapdragon system chip, which holds a high-tech 1200 MHz Quad-Core CPU with only 1 GB of RAM which is a bit disappointing comparing with this cellphone's powerful processing power. Graphic intensive applications and games often uses lots of CPU processing time, so this phone also uses an Adreno 203 GPU working at 245 MHz to help the processor with those tasks. This cellphone has an average 4 GB internal memory, which is adequate for most users considering that this device also has an SD memory slot to store photos and videos and even some apps that can be installed in the external memory.

This cellphone is a bit heavy comparing to other phones , with a weight of 6 ounces. The BLU Studio 5.0S has a gorgeous design, with a thickness of just 0.35". This device just has 5.65" long and 2.85 inches wide, but it manages to hold a 5" display. The BLU Studio 5.0S is for sale in 2 colors, black and white.

This phone includes a very good 960 x 540 5 inches screen, giving this phone a nice graphic quality. This screen uses IPS LCD capacitive technology, and can detect multi touch gestures.

This cellphone counts with wifi connectivity (but it can't be provided to other devices as a mobile hotspot) and the fastest 3G internet connection, supported by HSDPA and EDGE technologies. This cellphone works with a SIM card for GSM connection.

The BLU Studio 5.0S features two cameras, an 8 MP back camera and a 2 mega-pixels front-facing camera. It also captures videos up to 1280x720 (HD). This camera also counts with flash.

This phone packs a 2000 mAh medium capacity replaceable battery that can keep it running for many hours, but you may need to charge it after some moderate use. According to BLU, this phone has a reported 4 hs talk time and a 300 hs stand by time.

This phone also includes a few cool characteristics like Bluetooth and GPS Geolocation, and lots of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.

BLU is offering this cellphone for 249 dollars, which is expensive for this kind of device.
