“8GB+256GB – 3398 yuan ($93)”?
@Efe, I think you meant $593. Please update your article.
Thank You . Its actually $493.
Lenovo is the new black
So big phone and so small battery?
looking for some seriously honest opinion – whose slider is most durable without any loose end, gap between two body unit – lenovo z5 pro, mi mix 3 or huawei magic 2? can anyone tell me here who has tried all three units and tested for long?
Id opt for lenovo. People tend to change phones every 2-3years and it surely wont break. Beside price/quality lenovo is the best pick
What is “non-card end 5.0”? I hope Lenovo hasn’t compromised on expandable storage!
No amount of storage is ever enough with the kind of data we deal with these days.
Unfortunately if like the Z5 pro, it is not available with the B20 / B28 and not distributed in other markets, not a good deal … In addition the first tests of the Z5 pro are very severe in terms of camera, it is average in video and even poor in video night … with open camera or with the Google app.
With its weight of 210 grams, it has the advantage and defects of a slider, a very good brightness 810 cd/M2
In the final I prefer the Z5s, with its 710 largely sufficient, its screen with drop of water, 173g and 200 €
But if there is still not the B20, not imported, an O.S., and a poorly optimized camera, Lenovo is unlikely to return to the front of the market despite a very aggressive price policy
hi gizens! While everyone else is frenzy about the release of this killer machine, I have yet to receive news of the global version of phone. I want an advice about this unit. I emailed gizchina.com seeking advice but no reply as of this time. Im throwing my concerns to this forum. Im from the philippines and want to purchase the recently released lenovo z5 pro. Unfortunately it has yet to release the global version or the international rom. Im curious how the unit will work in the phils if I purchase the china rom (supports english or multi-language). I was told by aliexpress seller that they can install google play store (thou the package will unsealed which I dont mind). Im worried about compatibility with google apps and OTA google updates if I buy a china rom. I need your advice pls? Thank you in advance. More power to gizchina!
