Lenovo Displays Four New Smartphones at CES 2014

 

Chinese multinational technology company, Lenovo arrived at the mecca of gambling and introduced its four new Android powered smartphones – the Lenovo Vibe Z, Lenovo S930, Lenovo S650 and the Lenovo A859.

 The elegant Vibe Z is the most appealing one in the lineup with its 5.5″1080p display, a quad core Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor, 2GB of RAM, 16GB of internal storage and a 13MP rear camera; a great effort as Lenovo’s first ever LTE Smartphone. This sleek smartphone is wrapped up in a silver or titanium body and is estimated to be released in February in Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates and the Philippines for £333.

Liu Jun, Lenovo’s senior vice president, believes that the new Vibe Z was created with its elegant design, high performance and custom software so that customers could have the best smartphone experience at the speed of LTE.

Though S930 and S650 share some of the elegance of the former they certainly cannot match it with their 8GB of internal storage and 8MP cameras running on Android 4.2 Jelly Bean. Both phones come with the same MediaTek 1.3GHz quad core processor and the 6” S930 comes at £193 whilst the S650 costs £139 (a bit high for a 4.7” cutie).

The A859 being the first of the A series is packed with a 720p display, 8GB of storage and an 8MP camera powered by a MediaTek quad core 1.3GHz processor and runs on Android 4.2 Jelly Bean. This being the budget handset in the team comes at just £132.

Lenovo proves to be customer-friendly with their smartphones by offering a choice of screen size. Though their smartphones have created a stir in the market they are yet to decide upon their release in UK and US.
