BLU has a tendency to launch plenty of devices that pinpoint specific markets. The company also manages to make worthwhile handsets that don’t come tagged with a steep price tag, too. That continues with the Studio C series of handsets, which BLU has just officially announced.

The Studio C lineup offers four brand new handsets, most of which hover in the mid-range category. Unfortunately, there isn’t a single high-end device in the mix, but considering the price points that these particular Android 4.4-based smartphones hit, that shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise:
