Editorial report

BLU C5 2019 technical sheet

The BLU C5 2019 suits someone looking for a basic phone who can accept its main trade-off: a 2000 mAh battery. That capacity is among the smallest of phones from its time, and there is no overall NeoScore for this model.

Its 146 g weight is a clear strength, making it lighter than most phones launched around the same time. The 5-inch IPS LCD display has a density of 196 ppi, among the lowest of its time. Overall, its design and display are worse than those of most phones from that period. That matters for anyone who puts a high value on a detailed screen.

Connectivity is also among the weakest of its time. The BLU C5 2019 supports GSM, HSPA and UMTS, along with Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.1 and GPS. It has Dual Nano-SIM, FM radio and a 3.5 mm audio jack. The phone combines 1 GB RAM with 16 GB of storage, which can be expanded. Its operating system is Android 8.1.

In short, this is a lightweight, basic phone with two SIM slots and expandable storage, but its battery is very small and its display has low pixel density. There is no overall NeoScore or launch-price information for a value-for-money verdict. It makes sense as a simple handset only for buyers whose needs fit those limits.
