Smartphones have come a long way in the relatively short time that they've been popular, and the Blu Vivo X shows that even budget devices can be impressively advanced. The new flagship phone comes with four cameras — two on the front and two on the rear — so consumers who have limited cash to spend on their next gadget don't need to sacrifice on the pictures they take with their mobile device.
Multiple camera set-ups are increasingly common in smartphones, as the set-up allows for simulated bokeh (the soft background that is coveted in portraiture and photography as a whole). On the front, the Blu Vivo X has a 20 megapixel sensor paired with an 8 megapixel wide angle lens, and on the back it has a 13 megapixel camera paired with a 5 megapixel sensors explicitly designed to increase depth of field.
