Lenovo A6000 - THE BIG REVIEW

Lenovo A6000 was another exciting launch at the CES 2015. This 4G LTE smartphone will be launched in India on 16^th January. It is tipped to take the competition against Redmi Note 4G and Micromax YU Yureka to a whole new level.

PROCESSOR

The A6000 is powered by a 64-bit quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 (MSM8916) SoC clocked at 1.2GHz. The mobile is coupled with 1GB of RAM. The graphics is powered by Adreno 306 GPU.

DISPLAY

The Lenovo A6000 features a 5-inch HD (720x1280 pixels) IPS display, which is smaller than 5.5-inch the display on both Micromax's Yu Yureka and Xiaomi's Redmi Note 4G. The smartphone measures 141 x 70 x 8.2 mm, weighs 128 grams. The dual-SIM smartphone supports Micro-SIM cards.

CAMERA

It features a rear camera of 8 megapixels and a front facing camera of 2 MP with LED flash.

ANDROID

This dual SIM smartphone features the older Android 4.4 Kitkat OS. The look is enhanced with Vibe UI 2.0.  However an update to the android version should be provided soon.

MEMORY

A6000 has 1 GB RAM and an internal storage of 8 GB. The storage can be extended up to 32GB via a microSD card.

BATTERY

The smartphone has a 2300 mAh battery which is quite less for its large HD screen. The battery is not removable which comes out as a disappointment.

PRICE

The official price of the Lenovo A6000 is yet to be known. However, rumours suggest that it could be around Rs. 10,000. The phone will be launched in India on 16^th January. It will be available only through Flipkart.

The segment in which Lenovo A6000 is launched is the hottest in town. However, the key feature which could decide its popularity will surely be its price. It needs to be priced very aggressively below Rs. 9000 which will trigger the competition between itself, Yureka and Redmi Note. The latter two are much better in terms of specifications.

Asus Zenfone 2 - THE BIG REVIEW

This year at CES 2015, Asus has launched the second iteration of its ZenFone series, unveiling the ZenFone 2. Lets have a look at the review of this new exciting smartphone.

PROCESSOR

Asus has a very enviable history of powerful Intel processors. The Zenfone 2 features a LTE-enabled Intel Atom Z3580 processor with four cores that can reach frequencies of up to 2.33 GHz, and a PowerVR G6430 GPU with OpenGL 3.0 support. This processor is proven to be both fast and frugal, so you won't have any issues running the latest and greatest Android software on the ZenFone 2, including heavy 3D games.

DISPLAY

The Asus Zenfone 2 has a Gorilla Glass 3-protected, 5.5-inch panel display with a flagship-standard resolution of 1080 x 1920 pixels, returning an excellent 403 pixels per inch count, and offering 400 nits of brightness. The ZenFone 2 will come in Osmium Black, Sheer Gold, Glacier Gray, Glamor Red and Ceramic White colours.

CAMERA

The Zenfone 2 has a 13-megapixel camera with 5 element, f/2.0 aperture lens, complemented by a dual-color "Real Tone" LED flash. At the front, we're looking at a respectable, 5-megapixel selfie snapper with wide-angle (85-degree) lens, and an option to shoot selfie panoramas. The Pixelmaster software made by Asus is also available

ANDROID

This smartphone runs on Android 5.0 Lollipop operating system. What makes things more interesting is the customized Zen UI. Zen UI has a variety of new features, including ZenMotion, SnapView, Trend Micro Security and Zen UI Instant Updates. It is learnt that Asus has worked a few new tricks into the OS.

MEMORY

The ZenFone 2 starts off with 2 GB of RAM in the basic version, but the more expensive ones will come with 4 GB of RAM, making Zenfone 2 the first smartphone announced with more than 3 GB of RAM, which the native 64-bit Android support. The company has claimed seven times faster gaming performance than the previous ZenFone edition.

BATTERY

The smartphone has a 3000 mAh battery which is quite optimum for 1080p display. It will allow you to restore as much as 60% of the total capacity in as little as 39 minutes.

PRICE

The smartphone is expected to be priced at a good Rs.12,000  for the basic 2 GB RAM version and a bit higher for the higher versions.

Asus Zenfone 2 is a decent phone with good specifications. The 4G LTE smartphone will have its main focus around the powerful Intel processor. It would have been better if the price of the Zenfone 2 is a little bit lower than expected in India.
