TIMES OF INDIA NEWS:-
First impressions: Lenovo A6000, the cheapest 4G phone
NEW
DELHI: Lenovo has finally announced the India pricing and availability
details for its much awaited low-cost 4G smartphone, A6000.
At
Rs 6,999, it is the cheapest 4G phone available in the Indian market
and packs in a lot of features, giving competition to the likes of the
Xiaomi Redmi 1S and Asus ZenFone 4. We spent some time with the phone at
Lenovo's launch event in New Delhi and here are our initial thoughts...
Lenovo
A6000 doesn't look very different from other Android smartphones
available at this price. It essentially sports the same rectangular form
factor combined with rounded corners and a plastic shell, which we've
seen in phones such as the Redmi 1S.
If you want your
phone to stand out from the rest of the crowd, you can swap the phone's
black back panel and choose a red or white one. The back panels will be
available separately. Other than that, the phone has a very utilitarian
design.
The phone is pleasantly
lightweight which makes it easy to lug around.
The
front of the phone features a 5-inch IPS HD (720x1920p) display which
offers good viewing angles and vibrant colours. We found the touch
response to be slightly erratic but we're not sure if it was limited to
the demo unit.
The three capacitive touch navigation buttons are placed right below the display and were pretty responsive.
A 2MP front-facing camera is placed right above the display next to the earpiece.
The
right edge of the phone houses the volume rocker and power keys. Both
of the keys offer good tactile feedback and were responsive. The left
and bottom edges are barren while the top sports the 3.5mm headset jack
as well as the micro-USB port.
The back cover wraps around the front panel and hides the
2300mAh battery (removable), t
wo micro sim card slots and a microSD card slot. The back panel sports a matte finish and offers a good grip. The
8MP camera lens and LED flash are placed towards the upper portion of the back.
Lenovo A6000 is powered by a 64-bit 1.2GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 processor and 1GB RAM, the
phone
comes with 8GB of storage space. The dual sim phone supports 4G LTE
connectivity with support for both FDD 1800MHz (Band 3) and TDD 2300MHz
(Band 40) in addition to other popular connectivity options including
Bluetooth 4.0 and 3G. While we were not able to test 4G
capabilities of the device due to the absence of a 4G network in the
city, we were satisfied with the responsiveness of the phone's user
interface. We did not experience any lag or stutter while launching and
switching between apps.
It's worth pointing out that the phone's second sim card slot does not support 3G or 4G connectivity.
The
phone runs Android 4.4 KitKat with Lenovo's Vibe UI 2.0 custom
interface that supports themes and comes with Lenovo's utility apps.
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.
Lenovo A6000 sports an
8MP rear camera (with auto focus and LED flash) and a 2MP front facing
camera. We'll have a detailed look at the phone's cameras in our full
review.
With
the launch of the A6000, Lenovo has reduced the entry price barrier for
4G devices, and on first look, it seems you won't need to compromise
with features and performance when you choose this phone. However, we'll need to spend a few days with the phone before giving a final verdict.
