Blu to sell two Windows Phone handsets via Microsoft Store

Ron

Blu Products recently unveiled a couple of Windows Phone handsets which it would launch later this year. However, we are now learning that the company has partnered with Microsoft to sell the smartphones online via the Microsoft Store.

Florida-based technology company is not a new player in the smartphone market. Several Android smartphones and feature handsets from the company are available in the market today. However, this is the first time company is making Windows Phone-powered devices.

For a refresher, a few weeks ago, Blu Products showcased two Windows Phone handsets, Blu Dash 4.0 and Dash 5.0. While Blu Dash 4.0 sported a 4-inch display, the latter was carrying a 5-inch screen. However, both the devices have 800 x 480 pixels screen resolution, and are powered by the same 1.3Ghz dual-core processor. Both carry 512MB RAM which is rather low by present standard.

While Blu Dash 4.0 is priced at $99, the Dash 5.0 will be sold for $199. Do these devices interest you? Would you buy it?
