Lenovo has been on a bit of a spree, launching a number of new smartphones in quick succession. The company is good at creating models that cater to specific needs, such as the Vibe P1 (Review | Pictures) with its oversized battery, the Vibe Shot (Review | Pictures) for camera lovers, the Vibe S1 (Review | Pictures) for those who care most about looks, and most recently, the Vibe K4 Note for the budget segment. We now have with us the brand new Vibe X3, which takes its place at the top of the heap as Lenovo's latest flagship.
Lenovo wants to steal some of the premium Android smartphone market by cutting prices, and it has proven that it can match even the most aggressive Chinese companies in doing so. The sub-Rs. 20,000 Vibe X3 has a powerful processor, lots of storage, high-quality display, and the build quality to match. The company has also provided features that few others think of, such as high-end audio circuitry and a light, powerful Android overlay. Our only real disappointment was the camera, which delivered mediocre photos. Otherwise this phone would be unbeatable at its price.
