First batch of ZUK Z1 phones seem to have landed in the EU, and are being sold via Amazon.
If you’re in Spain, Italy, France, Germany or the UK, you can head over to the Amazon and take home the new phone from the Lenovo sub-brand.
The ZUK Z1 is essentially a phone for power users that don’t use their device for gaming too much. With its rather massive battery and not the newest, yet one of the most power efficient processors, going through 2-3 days of normal usage is a breeze for the Z1.
It comes with a 5.5-inch screen, a Snapdragon 801 processor, 3GB RAM, 64GB on-board storage, 13 mega-pixel main camera, 8 mega-pixel front-facing camera and of course, the previously mentioned massive 4100mAh battery. The Z1 comes with a USB Type-C port like most other phones of this season.
The Z1 is also in the list of phones to receive Android 6.0 Marshmallow in the first quarter of 2016, so that should have your software part covered.
2014: sd801 can handle everything, can run every single app, massive games included
2015: sd801 cannot handle everything because… Because there are better socs out there, so it can’t run the very same app it run the provious year. But hey, it’s power efficient!
Don’t be so harsh, the 801 is still a beast of a chip, AND is more power efficient than many of this year’s chips…
Most flagship SoC’s from last year will handle 99% of what the play store offers.
