From time to time, laptop giant – Lenovo, who also doubles as a smartphone giant does its best in dishing out top & quality smartphones to keep up the pace in the smartphone market. Lo and behold, the Lenovo Z5 is the latest tech wonder from the OEM.
Lenovo Z5, although touted to be an all-screen device while at the rumor phase, has turned out to be bezel-less with top notch and a bottom bezel. As it stands, it’s so evident that Lenovo has joined the iPhone X look-alike bandwagon where we have the likes of Huawei P20 Lite, Vivo X21 and even Nokia X6.
In light of this, let’s see what the Lenovo Z5 is fully made of.
Lenovo Z5 Quick Review – What’s Inside
Not so often do smartphones come out covered in glass at the front and the back; it’s good to know Lenovo Z5 joins this select few. Even with this, an aluminium alloy frame forms the layout for the smartphone’s orientation. Don’t get it twisted, the aluminium frame acts as the shell covering the innermost contents of the device while the glass encapsulates it. Everything put together, this smartphone weighs a convenient 165g.
As the top notch makes it appearance on the phone’s display, it makes no hindrance to the huge nature of the 6.2 inches IPS screen. The screen’s display quality gets to be determined by 1080 X 2246 pixels resolution and 402PPI pixel density. In the same vein, an aspect ratio of 18.7:9 allows viewing pleasure to be on the high side.
Around the back, 16MP and 8MP shooters conjoin with a LED flash to execute photography duties. Selfies are taken well by the 8MP front camera positioned in the top notch. Seamless running of apps is done justice to by the super 6GB RAM whereas an option of 64GB or 128GB ROM handles file storage. Unfortunately, there’s no MicroSD card present on the Lenovo Z5.
Actually, the beast of this device is the Qualcomm Snapdragon 636 SoC with an eight-cored CPU. As a result, Adreno 509 GPU dictates the graphics flow. Customized with Lenovo’s ZUI 4.0, Android Oreo OS runs the software functions on the smartphone. In terms of security, the fingerprint scanner is situated at the rear. Wrapping up, fast battery charging technology assures no slack in Lenovo Z5’s non-removable 3,300mAh battery’s charging time.
