the market leader in unlocked devices in the United States, unveiled their
one-of-a-kind flagship device, the BLU Selfie. As the name suggests

BLU Selfie
True self-expression, capturing the Kodak
moment or snap and go, whatever trendy tagline is most spoken of,
the brand new BLU Selfie defines all. With its much-anticipated
launch, BLU is once again bringing out the top guns into an
otherwise non innovative smartphone segment. Design of the BLU
Selfie is in depth and thorough; its streamline form, the premium
brushed metal finish, a friendly user interface, as well as the
ergonomic design that enables comfortable one-handed use is just
the tip of the iceberg. Just like you would expect on a premium
device, there is Corning Gorilla Glass 3, a gorgeous 4.7" HD
display with 720 x 1280 resolution that includes BLU Infinite View
Technology (IPS), and BLU Nex-Lens Technology(OGS) together to
provide vivid colors, brightness and an unbeatable view from any
angle.
"The BLU Selfie is the culmination of what one would want in
an epic smartphone with camera experience. All our effort to
achieve the most user-friendly high end camera function a
smartphone is evident on our BLU Selfie. With a massive 13MP camera
with Sony Lens, that speaks volume," said Samuel Ohev-Zion, CEO
of BLU Products.
The BLU Selfie provides superior camera experience with a 13MP
main camera, 13MP front facing camera with Sony IMX135 sensors and
2.0mm aperture with 1.12(mu)m size pixels. With friends and family
around for a perfect "usie". The BLU Selfie is equipped with
an impressive 88 degree angle lens feature that will capture the
perfect view. Both cameras provide advance features such as dual
LED flash and Glam Flash with BLU Bright + Technology for
consistent quasi-professional lighting. For the picture perfect
glamorous shot, BLU Final Touch Software is an instant image
enhancer that gives you multiple levels of beautifying effect. The
Selfie's processor is a potent 1.7GHz Octa-Core processor with
battery efficient technology, 2GB of RAM, 16GB of internal memory
and a micro SD slot that holds a memory card up to 64GB. For world
travelers and for those that have business and personal phone
