Blu is best known to GizChina patrons as a vendor that rebrands a lot of Gionee phones. Today, the US-based company announced a couple new phones.
First, the Blu Life One (2015). As you can tell, the phone is a refresh to the older Life One smartphone. It comes with a 5-inch 1280 x 720p display, and is powered by the Snapdragon 410 processor along with 1GB RAM and 8GB ROM. Besides that, it has a 13 mega-pixel main camera and a 5 mega-pixel front camera, all of which is powered by a 2420mAh battery. The phone is dual SIM, 4G LTE enabled and starts US$99 in the US.
The Life 8 XL on the other hand comes with a 5.5-inch display and octa-core MediaTek MT6592M CPU with the same 1GB RAM and 8GB ROM as the Life One (2015). Besides, there’s an 8 mega-pixel rear camera and a 2 mega-pixel front, powered by a larger capacity (compared to the Life One 2015) 2920mAh battery. This one will set you back by US$129.
