The Dimensity 700 chipset powering the Lava Blaze 5G handles everyday tasks, streaming, and light gaming without breaking a sweat. With 8GB of physical RAM and an additional 8GB of virtual RAM drawn from storage, the effective memory capacity reaches up to 16GB — keeping more apps active in the background and reducing reload times. The 128GB internal storage leaves ample room for apps and media, while the microSD slot lets users expand that up to 1TB.
Display and Battery Life
The 6.5-inch HD+ IPS panel with a 90Hz refresh rate delivers smooth scrolling and decent colour reproduction for its price bracket. The 5000mAh battery is built for all-day use and charges via the included 15W adapter. Android 13 out of the box means users get the latest privacy controls and performance improvements from launch.
Camera Setup
Photography is handled by a triple rear camera array led by a 50MP primary sensor with AI enhancements. An 8MP front camera takes care of selfies and video calls. The AI camera features help with scene optimisation and low-light adjustments automatically.
