Performance
Under the hood, the BLU Vivo IV is powered by a Mediatek MT6592 chipset with an octa-core 1.7 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU and a Mali-450MP4 GPU. This configuration was considered quite robust for a mid-tier smartphone in 2014, offering smooth multitasking and satisfactory performance for everyday applications. However, the Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean operating system, although upgradable to Android 4.4.2 KitKat, means the device lacks compatibility with more recent apps and features available on newer Android versions. The phone's 2GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage, without a card slot for expansion, could be restrictive for users with substantial storage needs.
