BLU G91 Max unveiled with Helio G95 and 108MP camera
BLU doesn’t really do flagships, its specialty is entry-level and mid-range devices. So, with a Helio G95 chipset on board, the new BLU G91 Max is the company’s most powerful device to date.
The 12 nm chip has two Cortex-A76 cores (2.05 GHz) and six A55s (2.0 GHz), plus a Mali-G76 MC4 GPU and an LTE modem. It is an upgraded version of the G90 and G90T chips used by the BLU G91 Pro and G90 Pro, respectively.
The phone comes equipped with 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB storage, plus a microSD slot so you can easily add more. And there is a 3.5 mm headphone jack – non-expandable storage and no jack are things that flagships do. Anyway, the phone runs Android 11 out of the box.
The BLU G91 Max is available in blue and dark gray
With a 6.8” display, the G91 Max is one of the largest BLU phones yet. And it has 1080p+ resolution (20.5:9), unlike the phones outside of the G-series. There is no high refresh rate, however, you get the standard 60 Hz.
This model has the best camera BLU has released with a 108 MP main sensor (1/1.52”, 0.7 µm), plus a 5 MP ultra wide (115° FoV) and a pair of 2 MP helpers (macro and depth). The main camera can record 4K video at 30 fps. There is also a 16 MP selfie camera punch holed into the display.
The phone is powered by a fairly large 5,000 mAh battery. It supports 18W wired and 10W wireless charging (unfortunately, the 30W wired charging of the G91 Pro didn’t carry over to this model). Other things to note are the side-mounted fingerprint reader and the lack of NFC.
The BLU G91 Max will be available in the US through Amazon soon and it will cost $230 (it is compatible with AT&T, T-Mobile, Metro PCS and others).
