BLU Life One X2 launches with 1080p screen, 16 MP camera for $149.99

-


BLU is continuously pushing out decently specced and highly affordable Android smartphones, which it's selling in the US unlocked. Today it's time for the Life One X to get a successor, the imaginatively named BLU Life One X2.



The Life One X2 has a 5.2-inch 1080p touchscreen, a 16 MP main camera with phase detection and laser autofocus and a LED flash, an 8 MP selfie snapper with a LED flash of its own, the Snapdragon 430 SoC (with a 1.4 GHz octa-core Cortex-A53 CPU), Cat.4 LTE, a microSD slot, and a 3,000 mAh battery (with support for Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0). It runs Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow. It comes with a metal finish and a fingerprint scanner in the Home button.

Two versions are already up for pre-order at Amazon. For $149.99, you get the one with 2GB of RAM and 16GB of built-in storage, while $199.99 nets you 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal memory. 

However, if you pre-order the BLU Life One X2 today or tomorrow, you get 10% off, so the cheaper variant is $134.99 while the more high-end one goes for just $179.99. Obviously all of these are prices for the unlocked handset, which you can use on networks such as AT&T and T-Mobile. For now you can grab one in Gun Metal Grey (for which shipping starts on October 7), while the Rose Gold color option pictured above will become available in November.

Google is pushing out an updated version of its contacts management app, bringing some of the features available in the web version to the Android app. The v 1.5 update reorganizes the user interface of Google Contacts. Instead of the two tabs – all and favorites – the app now just displays your entire contact list, with a sidebar menu available via the hamburger button on the left. Opening that up reveals a new section for managing duplicate contacts. That’s a feature that was present on the web app of Contacts , but the process was more convoluted on the Android app. You can now also add labels to your contacts, making it easy to organize large contact lists based on groups, for things like family, work, or school.

LG Display used CES 2018 in Las Vegas to officially unveil its new OLED displays - one of them being a 65-inch 4K flexible screen that can be rolled like a newspaper. The other is an 88” 8K OLED panel that we told you about last week. The flexibility of the 65” OLED display makes it easier to transport or store in the corner. Its small size allows for better space utilization, meaning you can take the TV anytime, anywhere and “enjoy bright, high-resolution content”.
