Editorial report

BLU G73 technical sheet

The BLU G73 may suit buyers looking for a large-screen phone with expandable storage and a headphone jack. Its 6.8-inch display gives content room, and the 128 GB storage can be expanded. A 3.5 mm audio jack supports wired headphones.

There are clear drawbacks against phones launched around the same time. Its 258 ppi pixel density is among the lowest, while the 90 Hz refresh rate is lower than that of most phones of its time. The 4 GB of RAM and AnTuTu score of 211,000 are also lower than those of most contemporaries. Its 128 GB storage is typical. The camera's 50 MP resolution is typical, but its f/2 aperture is less bright than that of most phones of its time. The 5000 mAh battery and 18 W charging are typical.

The IPS LCD display has a 720 × 1600 px resolution. The phone weighs 210 g and is 9.9 mm thick. Other specifications include Android 13, USB Type-C, Wi-Fi 802.11a/b/g/n/ac, Bluetooth 5.0 and support for two Nano-SIM cards. Its processor is a Unisoc T606, paired with 4 GB of RAM.

The BLU G73 has an overall NeoScore of 4.2, below that of most phones of its time. It is best suited to buyers who prioritize a large display, expandable storage and wired audio, and can accept lower screen density, less RAM and a less competitive camera aperture.
