BLU Studio 7.0 II S480U Gold, New, GSM unlocked
Gold trim on the BLU Studio 7.0 II S480U, sold new and GSM unlocked, a 7-inch 4G HSPA+ phablet without LTE. Gold suits exporters shipping to markets where the metal finish still carries retail appeal at the entry price, and it photographs well for prop and display work. Buyers planning US cellular use should look elsewhere; this unit is for live-UMTS markets and Wi-Fi deployment.
The BLU Studio 7.0 II, model S480U, is a 2015 phablet that stretches a phone to a 7.0-inch screen inside a brushed aluminum frame about 103 mm wide. It runs Android 5.0 Lollipop on a MediaTek 1.3 GHz quad-core processor with 1 GB of RAM, and carries a 5 MP main camera and a VGA front camera. Its "4G" label is BLU's term for HSPA+; the phone has no LTE radio.
TG Wireless moves the Studio 7.0 II to exporters serving markets where UMTS networks are still live, and to buyers who want a large-screen Android for Wi-Fi use: kiosk and point-of-display units, in-vehicle media, children's tablets, and prop or set-dressing 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 7.0 II is a GSM and HSPA+ device; the "4G" in the name is BLU's label for HSPA+ and the phone has no LTE radio. See the network status line in the table for the lock state of the listed lot. US carriers retired 3G in 2022 and T-Mobile retired 2G GSM on August 3, 2026, so this model gets no US cellular service today. Realistic uses are export to live GSM and UMTS markets, Wi-Fi only use as a 7-inch Android, props, display units, and parts.
Resale fit
- Export to Latin America, Africa, and other markets where UMTS/HSPA+ service remains live and a 7-inch unlocked Android has demand.
- Wi-Fi only deployments: kiosk and display screens, children's media devices, in-vehicle entertainment, and promotional giveaways.
- Film, TV, and photo props where a large, clean, new-in-box Android handset is needed in quantity.
- Parts and bench stock for repair shops supporting the BLU Studio line.
