The BLU G71+ comes in as a refresh or more updated version of the original BLU G71 that was launched about a year ago. The G71+ offers some upgrades over the BLU G71 but in some aspects, there are slight downgrades.



When compared to its predecessor, the BLU G71 Plus comes with a better processor, more memory, more storage, and more recent software. In aspects like the battery, there are some slight downgrades as the phone now has a battery with a little bit less capacity.

In this article, I’ll be sharing with you everything you need to know about the BLU G71+, its price, full specifications, and review. Without wasting much of our time, let’s get right into today’s article.

BLU G71+ Key Specs

Display

Coming to the display, there are no major changes except for the placement of the punch-hole cutout as it is now at the top center as opposed to the top left corner it used to be on the predecessor.

The BLU G71 Plus sports a large 6.5 inches IPS LCD display that has an HD resolution of 720 x 1600 pixels with a 270 pixels per inch density. The display has minimal bezels around it except for the bottom which has a massive chin.

The screen has 2.5D curved glass over it. Also, there is no protection glass on the screen to prevent scratches so you will need to get a tempered glass screen protector. Thankfully, the phone comes included with one in the box.

Overall, the display is quite decent enough for a budget smartphone as an average user will enjoy watching movies or playing games on it. However, I’ll have loved it if it had a higher resolution so it can be more detailed and crisp.

Design and Body

The design of the BLU G71+ is surprising looks great and even exceeded my expectations for a budget smartphone as most companies just go with generic and basic designs.

The phone has a plastic body that has a thickness of 9 mm and comes in at a weight of 175 grams which is quite on the low side. It has a lovely feel in the hands as it is not bulky.
The plastic rear panel has a designer paint finish with a gorgeous pattern across the panel giving it a kind of dual-tone look.

On the rear, the camera system is positioned in a small rectangular bump with black glass at the top left. After that, there is the fingerprint sensor, a large G71+ inscription at the bottom left with a speaker at the bottom right.

On the sides, you’d find the power button and volume rockers situated on the right with the SIM card slot being on the left side.
As for color, the phone is available in four different options: Bronze, Green, Blue, and White.

If you don’t like the feel of the phone, there is a rugged case with an ergonomic grip included in the box for free.

Processor and Memory

Under the hood, the BLU G71 Plus draws its power from the octa-core Unisoc Tiger T610 chipset. The octa-core chipset features 2 Cortex-A75 cores clocked at 1.8 GHz and six Cortex-A55 cores clocked at 1.8 GHz also. It is manufactured using a 12nm fabrication process tech so it is not really power efficient.

The chipset is coupled with the ARM Mali G52 MP2 GPU. It offers a decent performance when gaming and pm when gaming and performing other graphics-intensive tasks. Don’t have any wild expectations from it but it’ll go through most day-to-day activities without any problems.

The phone comes with 4GB of LPDDR4X RAM and either 64GB or 128GB of eMMC 5.1 internal storage. It has support for micro SD card so you can expand the storage if it runs out.

Coming to the cameras, the BLU G71+ comes with a triple rear camera setup that features a 13MP main camera, a 2MP macro camera, and a 2MP depth camera. It can record videos in 1080p resolution at 30 fps and has an LED flash to help out in dark environments.

On the front, the phone has a 13MP camera tucked in the tiny punch-hole cutout for all your selfie and video calling needs. It can also record videos in 1080p resolution at 30 fps.

The camera output is not mind-blowing but it gets the work done well enough if you’re in favorable environments. Don’t expect flagship quality here as you will be very disappointed.

Battery and Charging

On the inside, the BLU G71 Plus is backed by a massive 4,900 mAh non-removable battery. The company claims it can last users up to 3 days depending on how intense it was used.

Unfortunately, there is no support for fast charging so it will take well over 2 hours for the phone to charge from 0% to a full battery. There is a USB Type-C port for charging and data transfer.

Network and Connectivity

There is support for 4G LTE on the BLU G71+ and it has support for the following LTE bands: 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 12, 17, 28, & 66.

The phone comes with Bluetooth 5.1, Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Direct, Wi-Fi hotspot, GPS, and FM Radio. It has a 3.5 mm headphone jack also so you don’t need to get a different headphone or a dongle.

Software

On the software front, the BLU G71 Plus runs on pure Android 11 OS with no customizations, bloatware, or ads.
