More than that, Nokia C1 is said to have specs like 64GB of ROM and 64bit processor. Especially, Nokia C1 can run both Window and Android OS, probably Android 6.0. Nokia C1 camera is really good with 20MP Pureview on the rear and 8MP on the front.

Nokia C1 comes with a 4000 mAh batt, a 20MP rear camera+ an 8MP front camera while Lenovo Zuk Z2 Pro packs 3000 mAh batt, a 16MP rear camera+ an 8MP front camera. However, Nokia has been absent for a long time and this is also the first time Nokia produces Android phone. So, we are not sure that Nokia C1 can give the best performance like what we expect.

Lenovo Moto Z launch will be on 9th June. According to some rumors, Lenovo decided to give up on this X lineup. The Z series will replace this position.

Lenovo Moto Z instead of Moto X

Last week, we heard the rumor about Motorola’s X lineup. Lenovo would rebrand the Moto X lineup and change it into Moto Z series. Recently, a trademark filing of Moto Z has been showed up online. This is considered as a confirmation of the retirement of the X lineup. The trademark Moto Z will be used for smartphones, accessories (adapters and battery charges). So, at Lenovo’s upcoming Tech World conference this summer, we might not see the Moto X 2016. Instead of that, we’re gonna see the appearance of the Z series- the Moto Z.

Rumor has it that Lenovo will present 2 smartphones in this Z lineup: Moto Z Style and Moto Z Play. These new phones will show up with a metallic unibody with a circular camera module on the back. Let’s talk about the Moto Z specs. The Z Play will have a Snapdragon 625 chipset and 13MP rear cam. It features a 5.5-inch Full HD display with a 2600mAh battery. There will be 2GB/16GB and 3GB/32GB. The high-end version Z Style will sport a 5.5-inch QHD and Snapdragon 820 chipset. The phone might have 3/4GB RAM with 32GB ROM. It will have a 16MP rear shooter and a 3500mAh battery.

The Lenovo Moto Z will come with an attachable backplate with additional functionality. That means that you can add some accessories on this backplate. Those accessories are called MotoMods. They will include a battery pack, a camera grip, a pico projector, and stereo speakers. Some of them are gonna be attached to the phone. Some will be sold separately.

Lenovo Moto Z price

The Moto Z Style and the Moto Z Play are named as same as the two smartphones in the X series. This makes people believe more that the Moto Z will take over the Moto X. We’re gonna witness the new line of Lenovo soon in San Francisco. The Lenovo Moto Z release date is on 9th June. With those specs, we’re expecting that the Lenovo Moto Z price is gonna be in a range from $270 to $350.

ASUS Z2 Poseidon and Lenovo ZUK Z2 Pro are our two most favorite 6GB RAM smartphones. Both of them sport beautiful appearances and very impressive hardware. Check out which one is better in this tough comparison!

ASUS Z2 Poseidon VS Lenovo ZUK Z2 Pro: 6GB RAM beasts

To be honest, comparing the phones is hard for us since we love them all. But of course, as a consumer, usually we can just choose one and it totally should meet our expectations. Therefore, we would like to provide you some basic info of how different they are, then you can pick out your own winner. So, firstly, design-wise, it is easy to notice that the machines bring not the same feeling. The ASUS Z2 Poseidon looks absolutely strong due to following the gaming smartphone trend while the Lenovo ZUK Z2 Pro is more elegant and somehow able to match most people’s tastes. Anyhow, if it is only about appearance, we guess you can come up with a choice more easily.

Though, if it is about hardware, things will change a bit. Apart from the 6GB RAM, ASUS Z2 Poseidon specs and Lenovo ZUK Z2 Pro specs are kind of different. Speaking specifically, the Poseidon is said to feature a 6.0-inch Quad HD display, a new Intel chip (said to be a 2017 version), a 16MP rear + 5MP front camera combo, and 256GB of internal storage. Besides, Android 7.0 N OS and a massive 6,000mAh battery are also mentioned as what will help run the whole handset.

Meanwhile, the ZUK Z2 Pro has been introduced with a 5.2-inch Super AMOLED Full HD display, a Snapdragon 820 processor, a 3,100mAh cell, 128GB ROM (non-expandable), Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow OS with ZUI 2.0 on top, and a set of 13MP main + 8MP shooter. In general, obviously the ZUK’s product is less powerful than its rival, except for the selfie snapper. However, this is understandable because the ASUS Z2 Poseidon mostly aims at those who like playing heavy games, yet for more normal use, perhaps the Lenovo ZUK Z2 Pro is already enough. Do you agree?

ASUS Z2 Poseidon VS Lenovo ZUK Z2 Pro: Price and availability

Last but not least, let’s talk about Lenovo ZUK Z2 Pro price and ASUS Z2 Poseidon price. As we know, Lenovo ZUK Z2 Pro launch happened not long ago and the device costs around $420. As for the Poseidon, it has been predicted to range from $400 to $500. If so, we think the ASUS’s model seems to have more advantages to attract people. What are your opinions? Share with us!

An 18.4-inch Lenovo tablet is about to be presented soon! And you know what, it is very likely to surpass many other tablets like the 18.4″ FHD Samsung Galaxy View and 17.3″ FHD Alcatel Xess in a display battle because…

An 18.4-inch Lenovo tablet with Quad HD resolution

At the moment, when talking about tablet, we think of not only 7-inch devices or so, but also huge machines which can even replace PCs. For example, we’ve already had 18.4-inch FHD Galaxy View from Samsung and 17.3-inch FHD Xess from Alcatel so far. And now, maybe it’s time for Lenovo to join the “huge” game and in fact, a Lenovo model coded as PB2-690N and equipped with an up to 18.4-inch screen has just showed up on GFX benchmark recently.

Apparently, it will have an 18.4-inch 2K display, a Snapdragon 652 octa-core processor (Cortex-A72), 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage. Well, those are already pretty good features for a tablet, and additionally, the device will run on Android 6.0 Marshmallow OS as well, which means it may sport split screen mode like the Yoga tablet. In terms of camera, the rear one will be capable of 8 megapixels and the front snapper will be 0.3 megapixels.

If we make a quick comparison, the new Lenovo machine is obviously better than the Galaxy View since it only packs Full HD res, a 2.1MP selfie shooter, and no primary cam. Though, we cannot say that this Lenovo’s product is the best, biggest tablet in the market because last year, there was a Windows 10 tablet called YOGA Home 900 launched with a 27-inch 1080p display, 8GB RAM and 256GB ROM, able to surprise the world.

Lenovo 18.4-inch tablet: Price and availability

Despite appearing on the internet, there has been no word made for the tablet’s price as well as release date. Yet, we predict that the day is near, perhaps in this quarter or in the Q3 of 2016. And in case of costing around $450, it’s gonna be a great deal. Do you agree? Share with us your opinions!

Xiaomi Mi Max has just been launched and now we would like to take it into a comparison with the current famous Lenovo smartphone – Lenovo ZUK Z2 Pro. Let’s see which one is the better 4GB RAM handset this month!

Xiaomi Mi Max vs Lenovo ZUK Z2 Pro: Spec comparison

As we know, Lenovo ZUK Z2 Pro is the first 6GB RAM device of the company. However, today, we will be only looking at its 4GB RAM variant in order to make it a fair comparison. So, first of all, talking about design, both Max and Pro are beautiful, stylish and premium with sleek metal unibodies, so we do not worry much about their appearances. As a result, we would like to dig deeper into the machines’ hardware to figure out the stronger one.

Differences will make it easier to choose the winner. Though, before coming to that part, let’s check their similarities together. Obviously, they are run by 4GB RAM, Android Marshmallow OS (although the ZUK Z2 Pro is a bit more modern with Android 6.0.1 version while the Mi Max’s only got Android 6.0), a dual SIM, Full HD display resolution, a fingerprint scanner, and Quick Charge 3.0 technology (83% in 30 minutes). In general, those are pretty good features for a smartphone to do tasks users want. Anyway, to pick out the better, we have to find their key different specifications.

Speaking specifically, no doubt the new Xiaomi’s product is bigger due to sporting a 6.44-inch IPS LCD screen while the Lenovo phone has a 5.2-inch Super AMOLED one. Moreover, the Max even packs up to 128GB ROM (expandable up to 200GB), a 16MP rear shooter, and a massive 4,850mAh battery. So… “max”, huh?! Therefore, if you’re seeking an excellent huge phablet, Xiaomi Mi Max can be a great option. Nonetheless, the smaller display with the same FHD resolution has helped the Z2 Pro get higher ppi – 424ppi, which means everything shown on its screen is cooler. Furthermore, Lenovo ZUK Z2 specs include a Snapdragon 820 (dual-core 2.15GHz + dual-core 1.6GHz) chip, an 8MP secondary camera and a USB Type-C port, making it definitely more powerful than the Mi Max’s SD650/652 (quad-core 1.4GHz + dual-core 1.8GHz) processor plus a 5MP front snapper. Well, it seems like Lenovo ZUK Z2 Pro will be a fantastic choice for those who love selfies and strong devices to do heavy stuff.

Xiaomi Mi Max vs Lenovo ZUK Z2 Pro: Price and availability

Xiaomi Mi Max will be available for sale in China from May 17, 2016. Its 128GB ROM + 4GB RAM version cost 1,999 Yuan (or about $306). Meanwhile, Lenovo ZUK Z2 Pro price for the 4GB RAM ver has not been confirmed yet, but surely it will be less than $415 (which is the price of the 6GB Z2 Pro). Overall, it looks like Xiaomi Mi Max price and specs are a batter combination. What do you think? Tell us about your hero!
