Specifications for the Studio C are on par with those of the Motorola E (2nd Gen) and include a 5-inch 720p HD display and an 8-megapixel rear camera. Under the hood you’ll find a 1.3GHz quad-core processor with 1GB of RAM and a 3,000mAh battery.

In terms of storage, the Studio C offers 8GB internally with microSD support for cards up to 64GB. Additionally, the smartphone allows for two SIM cards and comes in a variety of color options. However, for all the handset does offer, there’s one feature it lacks: 4G LTE connectivity. Given it is targeted at first-time smartphone buyers, the high-speed support may matter little.

What makes the Studio C such an attractive unit is that it works with any GSM service provider in the US. This means T-Mobile, AT&T, Cricket, MetroPCS and a host of others are compatible. And at $99, it’s an inexpensive way to bring your own device or sample some of the prepaid brands.

The Blu Studio C is available immediately through Amazon.com; color options include Sandstone Black, Ceramic White, Salmon Pink, Mint Green, and Sun Orange.
