Performance
The phone runs on the Android 11 (Go edition), which is designed specifically for low-end hardware, offering an optimized and lightweight operating system experience. Powering the BLU C5L Max is a Unisoc SC9832 chipset, a quad-core 1.4 GHz Cortex-A53 CPU, and a Mali-T820 MP1 GPU. These components provide enough power for basic tasks such as calling, texting, and browsing the internet. However, performance limitations are noticeable with more demanding applications, making the device better suited for light use.
The BLU C5L Max is available with either 1GB or 2GB of RAM and comes with storage options of 16GB or 32GB. While this seems rather limited by today's standards, the storage can be expanded using a microSDXC card, an essential feature for users who need more space for applications and media.
