Performance and Software
Under the hood, the BLU Life XL comes with two chipset variants: the MediaTek MT6592M with an octa-core CPU clocked at 1.4 GHz, and the Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 with a quad-core CPU running at 1.2 GHz. Accompanied by either 1GB or 2GB of RAM, depending on the model, the phone provides basic multitasking capabilities. It's not built for heavy gaming or power-intensive applications but performs satisfactorily for everyday tasks such as web browsing, social media, and light gaming. The device runs on Android 5.1 Lollipop, a version that, while dated, brought essential Android features and functionality with limited manufacturer bloatware.
