A thorough review of the characteristics and specifications of the BLU Studio G HD 8GB. We provide a detailed evaluation of the phone in terms of usability – including ease of holding, screen visibility, performance, image quality, and multitasking capabilities – as well as functionality, looking at the battery and camera.

Features, Performance, and Reviews for the BLU Studio G HD 8GB

The camera function of BLU Studio G HD 8GB

The performance of the "BLU Studio G HD 8GB"'s main camera is rather low with only 5.0MP pixels. If you take a lot of pictures, then you'll likely be dissatisfied with what this camera has to offer.

The "BLU Studio G HD 8GB" comes equipped with a 2.0MP pixel front-facing camera, which is very low resolution. If you aren't particular about your videos or photos, it might be fine, but otherwise, we recommend a smartphone at least one tier higher.

The battery performance of BLU Studio G HD 8GB

The "BLU Studio G HD 8GB"'s battery capacity is 2000.0mAh, a standard level for these types of phones. Compared to other smartphones, the "BLU Studio G HD 8GB" has a standard battery life. It should not be a problem for normal use. However, if you spend a lot of time online or playing games, you may find the battery life a bit dissatisfying.

BLU Studio G HD 8GB 's size

The "BLU Studio G HD 8GB" is 71.5mm wide, 143.3mm tall, and 8.4mm thick. I can just barely use it with one hand, so it may feel big to some people. In the case of the "BLU Studio G HD 8GB", it weighs about 133.0g. The weight is such that it's hardly noticeable even when using one-handed. However, some people may find it tiring to use for long periods.

In giving an overall rating to the "BLU Studio G HD 8GB", while it may be slightly difficult to hold, it shouldn't be much of a problem when considering its general strengths and weaknesses.

BLU Studio G HD 8GB 's screen

The "BLU Studio G HD 8GB" has a 5.0inch screen. The iPhone X has a big screen, which very likely won't ever trouble you. Just be aware that it's not a very good size for writing long blocks of text.

The resolution of the "BLU Studio G HD 8GB"'s screen is pretty much standard. It shouldn't be a problem for normal use, but it might prove to be a bit dissatisfying for those who wish to better enjoy their photos, videos, or games.

The CPU performance of BLU Studio G HD 8GB

The processing power of the "BLU Studio G HD 8GB" is comparatively low at 1.3GHz×4(4.0-cores). You'll most likely notice its lack of power when running games or playing videos. However, you shouldn't have any problems making calls, browsing the internet or using apps like Twitter or Instagram.

The "BLU Studio G HD 8GB" only has 1.0GB of RAM, which is fairly low. The RAM is regularly insufficient, so operation gets unstable and jerky even when using apps that are not resource intensive.

In rating the "BLU Studio G HD 8GB"'s overall operational speed, it ranks at the low end of smartphones. It will lag and feel sluggish even during normal use. In most cases, users will feel the performance to be lacking.

BLU Studio G HD 8GB 's storage capacity

The "BLU Studio G HD 8GB" has 8.0GB of data storage. This is fine if you mainly use email or social media sites, but if you plan to take photos and videos or play games, you should buy an upgrade.

Since the "BLU Studio G HD 8GB" is compatible with SD cards, you'll be able to easily expand your storage capacity; you won't need to worry about how much internal space it has.

Overall assessment of BLU Studio G HD 8GB

The "BLU Studio G HD 8GB"'s performance level is that of a budget smartphone. It's a bit too weak to use as a main smartphone, so if possible you should consider something slightly more powerful. However, it should be sufficient for people that only want to use the most basic functions, like making calls and browsing the internet, and for people that don't really use smartphones much.
