BLU R1 Plus


Blu R1 Plus is a new device from Blu that has been spotted on FCC website. This device is going to come with a metallic body and a large 4000 mAh battery. Recently Blu launched its Blu R1 HD smartphone for US$ 50 via Amazon Prime Exclusive, but it didn’t receive the attention that was expected. Even this new device might be available via Amazon Prime since Amazon apps were spotted on user manual with the home screen but nothing is official yet.

Blu R1 Plus has a MediaTek MT6737V quad-core processor. This device is going to support dual SIM connectivity and has a micro USB port and also the 3.5mm headphone jack. The RAM and other important details about the Blu R1 Plus are not yet known and we have to wait to get those details until the company announces them officially.

There is a 5-inch capacitive touchscreen display with the resolutions of 1280 x 720 pixels and gives a pixel density of 294PPI. The on-board memory on the device is 16GB which could be extended up to 64GB via microSD card slot. There is a possibility for the device to come out of the box with Android Marshmallow 6.0 and feature an 8MP rear camera.

There are many pre-installed applications like Amazon shopping, Drive, Kindle, Music, Video, Photo, and Alexa and other applications like Google Play Store, Gmail, Camera, YouTube, Play Music and Maps are also available. The availability of the device is also not known yet, and Blu will be keen in making some name with this handset.
