Performance
Under the hood, the BLU Energy XL is powered by the Mediatek MT6753 chipset, alongside an octa-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A53 CPU and a Mali-T720MP3 GPU. This combination, paired with 3GB of RAM, delivers reasonable performance for everyday tasks, including browsing, social media, and light gaming. However, its Android 5.1 Lollipop operating system is quite dated, lacking access to some modern apps and security updates, which may be a downside for some users.
