Affordable smartphones are becoming increasingly popular among consumers as they offer decent features without breaking the bank. One such device is the BLU Studio 5.0 LTE, released by the smartphone brand BLU in May 2014. Let's take a closer look at this device and see what it has to offer.
Design and Display
The BLU Studio 5.0 LTE measures 162g and has a thickness of 9mm, making it a bit on the heavier side compared to other budget smartphones. However, this weight also gives the device a sturdy feel. The front of the device is dominated by a 5.0 inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 540 x 960 pixels, which may not be the sharpest but still offers decent visuals. The device comes in four color options: white, pink, yellow, and orange.
Operating System and Performance
Upon its release, the BLU Studio 5.0 LTE ran on the Android 4.2 Jelly Bean operating system, which could be upgraded to Android 4.4.2 KitKat. This means that the device may not be able to support the latest apps and software, but it can still handle everyday tasks smoothly thanks to its Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 chipset and quad-core 1.2 GHz Cortex-A7 processor. The Adreno 305 GPU also ensures smooth graphics for gaming and videos.
Memory and Storage
The Studio 5.0 LTE comes with 1GB of RAM and 4GB of internal storage, which may not be a lot but can be expanded up to 64GB through a microSDXC slot. The device also has eMMC 4.5 technology for faster storage performance.
Camera and Other Features
The BLU Studio 5.0 LTE boasts an 8MP main camera with autofocus and LED flash, which can capture decent photos and videos at 1080p resolution. On the front, there is a 1.6MP selfie camera, which may not be impressive but can get the job done. The device also has features such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, and a microUSB port. It also has sensors like accelerometer, gyro, and proximity sensor.
Battery Life and Network Connectivity
The Studio 5.0 LTE is powered by a removable 2200 mAh battery that can provide up to 800 hours of standby time on 2G and up to 700 hours on 3G. As for network connectivity, the device supports GSM, HSPA, and LTE technology with 2G, 3G, and 4G bands. This means that users can enjoy fast data speeds and reliable connection on their device.

Its durable build, expandable storage, and decent camera make it a good choice for those looking for an affordable smartphone. If you're in the market for a budget-friendly device, don't overlook the Studio 5.0 LTE from BLU.
