BLU announces two new budget-friendly smartphones with huge batteries

BLU, the Florida-based smartphone manufacturer, is no stranger to launching a slew of inexpensive Android smartphones every couple of weeks, and today we’re getting two new offerings from the company. New to the Energy line of phones are the Studio Energy 2 and Energy X, both of which are already available for purchase from Amazon.

BLU Studio Energy 2

The Studio Energy 2 is the successor to the company’s Studio Energy smartphone (surprise, surprise). Like its predecessor, the Studio Energy 2 features a massive non-removable 5000mAh battery. The 4G-capable device also comes with a 5.0-inch 720p Super AMOLED display, a 64-bit quad-core 1.3 GHz MediaTek 6735 processor backed by 1.5GB of RAM and a Mali-T720 graphics processor. It also houses 16GB of on-board storage, microSD expansion up to 64 additional gigabytes, and has a slot for dual Micro SIM cards. Additionally, it has an 8MP rear camera, a 5MP front-camera and runs Android 5.0 Lollipop out of the box. Despite having a massive 5000mAh battery, the Studio Energy 2 remains quite slim at only 10.1mm thick.

The Studio Energy 2 can be yours in Midnight Grey and Ceramic White with Rose Gold color options for just $179.00.

BLU Energy X

The Energy X is the more budget-friendly out of the two, though this still seems to be a pretty great device for the price. With the Energy X, you’ll get a 5.0-inch 720p IPC LCD display, a quad-core 1.3GHz MediaTek 6580 processor, 1GB of RAM, a Mali-400 GPU, 8GB of on-board storage and microSD expansion up to 64GB. It also features an 8MP rear cam, a 2MP front cam, a dual Micro SIM card slot and runs Android 5.0 Lollipop. This one comes with a 4000mAh battery and measures only 8.9mm thick.

You can purchase the BLU Studio Energy X in Midnight Grey and Luxury Gold color options from Amazon for just $109.00.
