Description
BLU Studio 5.0 LTE Y530Q Yellow 4G LTE 850/1700/1900/2100, New, GSM unlocked
Yellow BLU Studio 5.0 LTE Y530Q, New, GSM unlocked, with 4G LTE on bands 4 and 7 and 3G on 850/1700/1900/2100 MHz; this is the variant the original source copy describes. A bright yellow 5-inch LTE phone suits prop houses and youth-oriented retail counters in export markets more than it suits US activations, given the model's age.
The BLU Studio 5.0 LTE Y530Q is BLU's 2014 entry into LTE: a 5-inch Android handset sold GSM unlocked with 4G LTE on bands 4 (1700 MHz) and 7 (2600 MHz) and 3G UMTS on 850/1700/1900/2100 MHz, which at the time matched T-Mobile and AWS-based carriers in the Americas. It came in a run of bright colors, orange, pink, white, and yellow among them, and was pitched as a low-cost way to get LTE data.
Resellers buy it from TG Wireless new for export to markets where band 4 or band 7 LTE and UMTS remain live, and for color-matched display and collector stock.

Condition: New
Brand new units in the original box with the original in-box accessories as listed. Nothing has been activated or reconditioned. If your channel needs sealed retail packaging rather than open-box new, say so when you request a quote so the account manager can confirm how the lot is packed.
Network and compatibility
The Studio 5.0 LTE Y530Q is GSM unlocked with LTE on bands 4 and 7 and UMTS on 850/1700/1900/2100 MHz; see the network status line in the table. Band 4 is still used by T-Mobile and AT&T, but the model does not list VoLTE and 2014-era BLU phones generally lack it, so with US 3G retired in 2022 and T-Mobile 2G closed on August 3, 2026, expect no US voice service and at best LTE data if the carrier accepts the IMEI. Confirm with the carrier. Export markets with band 4 or 7 LTE and live UMTS remain the practical outlet.
Resale fit
- Export to Latin American markets that run LTE on band 4 or band 7 alongside live UMTS, where a cheap colorful 5-inch LTE Android still sells.
- Color-sorted display, prop, and collector stock of a boxed 2014 BLU model.
- Data-only or Wi-Fi uses such as hotspot-paired devices and in-store demo units.
