Hands-on with the 5,000mAh Blu Studio Energy and more [VIDEO]
Earlier today we showed you the super thin Blu Vivo Air. That phone was just one of the many devices Blu is showing off at CES this year. We were able to check out the Blu Studio Energy, Blue Life One, Blu Life One XL, Blu Studio X, and Blu Studio X Plus.
The cool thing about these devices is none of them cost more than $200 unlocked. The Blu Studio Energy is probably the most interesting of this bunch. It has a whipping 5,000mAh battery packed into its 10.4mm thick frame. Talk time is rated at 52 hours and since it’s dual-SIM, it might be the perfect phone for a weekend getaway.
The Blu Life One and One XL have 5-inch and 5.5-inch displays. Both are 720p IPS LCDs with Gorilla Glass 3. They both also have very respectable 13MP cameras and microSD card slots. On the surface these specs don’t sound great, but the aluminum frame makes them feel much more premium.
Last is the Studio X and Studio X Plus. These two phones are also available with 5-inch and 5.5-inch 720p displays. The things that make the X line different from the Life One devices is a smaller 8MP camera and MediaTek processor instead of Qualcomm.
All of Blu’s phones are expected to get Android 5.0 Lollipop thanks to the fact that they run stock software. Motorola made waves with the affordable Moto G and Moto E, but Blu has been doing the same thing for a while now. Attractive devices with great build quality and pure Android. You can’t go wrong.
