Lava, the Indian smartphone brand, has officially launched the Lava Blaze 3 5G in the country. It’s the successor to the Lava Blaze 2 from last year and is an entry-level 5G smartphone. Let’s see what it brings to the table.

Specifications

The Lava Blaze 3 offers a fairly standard package for a budget 5G phone. It’s 6.5-inch HD+ display boasts a 90Hz refresh rate and 720p resolution.

Under the hood, the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 SoC handles processing duties. This mid-range chipset is a common choice in affordable 5G phones, offering reliable performance for everyday tasks. 

It’s paired with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of expandable storage. You will also get support for 6GB of virtual RAM. And on the software side, the Lava Blaze 3 runs stock Android 14 out of the box. 

As for the camera, the phone boasts a 50MP primary sensor with a secondary 2MP sensor that’s more of a placeholder. The 8MP front-facing camera should handle basic selfies and video calls.

There’s also a new feature called Vibe Light, which allows users to adjust the color temperature for a more “studio-like” photography experience. How effective this is in practice will depend on implementation.

Keeping the phone running is a 5000mAh battery which supports 18W fast charging. Security-wise, the phone offers a side-mounted fingerprint sensor and face unlock for authentication. 

Other features include dual-app support, anti-peeping features (which likely involve displaying privacy filters), and support for a microSD card for storage expansion.
