Lenovo K3 Launched, To Compete With Xiaomi Redmi by Geestunnar(m): 5:26pm On Dec 05, 2014
Today Lenovo unofficially
unveiled a new budget
smartphone with a rather silly
code name - Lenovo K3 "Music
Lemon". The device appeared on
JD, one of China's largest
retailers, and it seems it will be
offered exclusively by them only
online, much like Xiaomi
handsets. The reasons behind
such a marketing strategy are
plentiful, especially for budget
phones, but one does also get
the feeling that Lenovo is
launching a contra offensive
against Xiaomi's Redmi 1S in
particular.
The Lenovo K3 is a solid entry
level smartphone with a more
than attractive price tag of
CNY599, or roughly $97. For that
you get a quad-core Snapdragon
410 SoC, clocked at 1.2GHz, 1GB
of RAM and 16GB onboard
storage plus a card slot. When
you throw in a 5 inch 1280 x
720 pixel IPS display, LTE and two
decent cameras (8 MP main and
2 MP front) you do get an
obviously superior hardware
platform, than the one inside the
rival Xiaomi Redmi 1S.
The "Music Lemon", as its name
hints, features a vibrant yellow
back, although it seems to have
little to no other apparent
connection to lemons or music
for that matter, besides perhaps
the inclusion of Waves
MaxxAudio sound tech.
The device measures 141 x 70.5
x 7.9mm and is powered by a
2300mAh battery.
It seems that for now the device
will be available only in China, but
with such a compelling price tag,
perhaps Lenovo will decide to
push it, or at least a similar
smartphone to foreign markets
as well.
