Features, Performance, and Reviews for the BLU Products Blu R1 HD

BLU Products Blu R1 HD 's size

The "BLU Products Blu R1 HD" is 72.0mm wide, 143.5mm tall, and 8.7mm thick. I can just barely use it with one hand, so it may feel big to some people. In the case of the "BLU Products Blu R1 HD", it weighs about 142.0g. 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 Products Blu R1 HD", while it may be slightly difficult to hold, it shouldn't be much of a problem when considering its general strengths and weaknesses.

BLU Products Blu R1 HD 's screen

The "BLU Products Blu R1 HD" 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 Products Blu R1 HD"'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 Products Blu R1 HD

The "BLU Products Blu R1 HD" has a run-of-the-mill processing power of 1.3GHz×4(4.0-cores), so while you'll be able to play 2D games with ease, it's a little lacking for 3D games. Outside of games, the phone runs most things quite smoothly, but certain apps can cause a bit of slowdown.

The "BLU Products Blu R1 HD" has 2.0GB of RAM, so it has plenty of space. In rare cases this amount of RAM might not be sufficient, but there shouldn't be too much stress on the machine with this amount.

The overall operational speed of the "BLU Products Blu R1 HD" rates as a mid-range smartphone. While you will probably not experience much sluggishness or lag with normal use, we recommend a phone at least one tier higher if you want to enjoy games or videos.

BLU Products Blu R1 HD 's storage capacity

The "BLU Products Blu R1 HD" has 16.0GB of data storage, which is plenty for taking photos, but for people who frequently shoot videos or have lots of games installed, this may not feel like enough space.

The camera function of BLU Products Blu R1 HD

The main camera of the "BLU Products Blu R1 HD" has a capacity of 8.0MP pixels, and is adequate for normal use. But some users may feel dissatisfied with the picture quality.

The "BLU Products Blu R1 HD" comes with a 5.0MP pixel camera, which is a standard level. It's perfectly fine for selfies, but may be not as satisfying if you wish to take photos of large numbers of people, or make printouts.

The battery performance of BLU Products Blu R1 HD

The "BLU Products Blu R1 HD"'s battery capacity is 2500.0mAh, a standard level for these types of phones. Compared to other smartphones, the "BLU Products Blu R1 HD" has a standard battery life.
