The K900,
a high-end, big-screen smartphone aimed at the Chinese and Indian market where the Mobile Giants Samsung and Apple have initiated a price war in the high end Smart Phone market.
Needless to say, K900 is a dual-core, Intel-powered beast. At 5.5 inches diagonally, the K900 dwarfs even the Galaxy Note 2, and the latest Galaxy IV
and like other devices in this space. The
overall design is attractive enough, with a metallic chassis and
squared-off edges. On the front is a 1080p display, which looks about as
sharp and clear as you'd expect. On the inside, Intel's Clovertrail+ --
a dual-core, HyperThreaded CPU -- provides enough horsepower to keep
things running smoothly, and around the back is a 13MP Sony Exmor R
camera with f/1.8 aperture. K900 is also incredibly sleek for the specifications if offers.
The K900 is running Android 4.2 Jelly Bean,
along with Lenovo's own software layer software, and although it's
great to see 4.2 finally rolling out to devices, the manufacturer's UI
customizations leave something to be desired.
Lenovo is a relative newcomer to the smartphone market, and like many
in the early days, they're doing better in terms of hardware than they
are software. So the likes of Samsung, Apple, Blackberry, Nokia must definitely keep an eye on the "Strong Chinese Contender"!
The phone is expected to be available in the market from May 10th, 2013.
