The Lenovo S5 Pro GT version is consistent with the standard Lenovo S5 Pro in many ways. It still uses a 6.2-inch Incell full-screen display with a battery capacity of 3500 mAh and support for AI game acceleration.

More importantly, Lenovo S5 Pro GT version also supports super wide-angle zero-light face unlocking thus even in very low light environments, the face unlock still works properly.
