LENOVO K3 NOTE - THE BIG REVIEW

By -
Lenovo has recently been on a roll in the smartphone market. Even after purchasing Motorola from Google, it has been concentrating on building its brand further with A6000, A7000 and Vibe series. Lenovo is now keen to strengthen its foothold on the 4G budget smartphone segment. With its latest release, Lenovo K3 Note, the aim is clearly to take down rivals such as Xiaomi and Micromax. Let’s have a look at its features and specifications.

PROCESSOR
Lenovo K3 Note is powered by a 1.7GHz 64-bit MediaTek MT6752 octa-core processor, supported by graphics processor MALI T760 GPU. K3 note also has 2GB RAM which clearly means powerful performance.

DISPLAY & DESIGN
Lenovo K3 Note carries forward the welcome trend with a look and finish that is worthy of a more expensive smartphone. The K3 Note looks very similar to the Lenovo A7000. In fact, the two share the same design and dimensions (152.6x76.2x7.99mm) though the K3 Note is slightly heavier (10grams). 
With the K3 Note, Lenovo is obviously going after those who prefer a big screen experience. Until now, if you wanted to buy a phablet but were on a tight budget, you had to put up with a display with low pixel density. By providing a full-HD panel on the 5.5-inch display, Lenovo has eliminated the need for this compromise. The display on the K3 Note looks sharp when compared to smartphones of a similar size and price bracket. The colour reproduction and viewing angles were satisfactory and outdoor visibility under soft, natural light was quite good as well. Lenovo K3 Note will be offered in Onyx Black, Pearl White, and Laser Yellow colour variants

CAMERA
The 13MP camera lens and dual-LED flash are placed towards the upper portion of the back. The 5MP front camera is well equipped for video calling as well as taking selfies.

SOFTWARE
On the software front, The K3 Note runs Android 5.0 Lollipop and features Lenovo's Vibe UI skin on top and comes with Lenovo's utility apps. It also includes support for gestures like double tap to unlock.
The phone's default UI is devoid of an app drawer and app icons and widgets are spread across the home screens. The unified home screen-app launcher style may come across as user-friendly to people who have not used an Android phone before, the latter is highly thoughtful though.

MEMORY
 The phone comes with 16GB internal storage and a micro SD card slot for expansion up to 32GB. 

BATTERY
The back cover wraps around the front panel and hides the 3000mAh battery (removable), two micro sim card slots and a micro SD card slot. It's worth pointing out that the phone's second sim card slot does not support 3G or 4G connectivity. Lenovo is always well known to provide excellent battery in its smartphones. The K3 note doesn’t disappoint on this front.

PRICE
At Rs. 9,999/- the company couldn’t have given any better price. Lenovo K3 note is available exclusively on Flipkart via flash sales. You need to register beforehand in order to purchase it.

Lenovo K3 Note is a worthy upgrade to its own predecessor A7000. For the price, it offers a better display, better processor, double the storage and a good rear camera. Go for it if you an excellent powerhouse smartphone at a bargaining price!

What if Indian states were kids at school?

Andhra Pradesh  : The hardworking boy who does all the work assigned to him sincerely.  He is taking engineering after school. Arunachal Pradesh :  The girl who sits quietly, lost in her own world, in a corner of the class. Assam :  The jovial guy who is always cheerful. And yes, he prefers tea to coffee. Bihar  : The boy who always makes the loudest noise in the absence of the teacher, but has a kind heart. Chhattisgarh :  The introverted guy who always listens to the crowd and seldom speaks. Goa :  One of the most popular guys. He parties all day and night. Gujarat :  The guy who lends his pen to others, and never forgets to take it back. He has visited the bank more than the school canteen. Haryana :  The guy who has the ability to scare juniors by his accent. People try to imitate him to get some quick popularity points.

REVOLUTIONALIZE EDUCATION           Hi Friends, this is Suman Pandit, student of Electronics Engineering, Vidyalankar Institute of Technology, Mumbai. I have an appetite for research, innovation and entrepreneurship. In the coming days, the blog on which your sight is will feature articles ranging from sports, technology, music, art, social issues, etc. The topic for today is Education.           Education is one of the most important aspects of a human being’s life. It is a process which begins from the birth of a person and continues for his lifetime. Education is responsible for the growth of many nations and communities. Our Country, India has a population of over 1.2 billion (which is the 2 nd largest in the world). It has more youths of the age 18-30 than any other country in the world. But still, it is a developing country. The main reason for this is illiteracy and unemployable graduates. In India, people are qualified, but not educated.         For education to

A Solution to solve Mumbai's Vaccination Problem - an open letter to CM of Maharashtra

Hope you are doing well..... The whole country is in deep COVID crisis. In Maharashtra too, the cases are rising. If we don't prevent this sooner, we will be in deep shortage of medical supplies and this can give rise to a big health emergency.  The only way in which we can prevent this is by Mass Vaccination of everyone in Mumbai and Maharashtra. Vaccination prevents infection of COVID and hospitalization in all age categories to a great extent. Countries like Israel and UK are a great example. As centre has not allowed Maharashtra to allow door to door vaccination, I have another idea of undertaking mass vaccination in Mumbai (can be expanded to all of Maharashtra too). After 1st May when vaccination will be opened for all adults, this will help reduce the burden on the current vaccination centres The idea- There are a lot of grounds and parks in every locality of Mumbai. They are now idle because of the current mini lockdown. There are many nurses and attendants too
