People go crazy lengths to take a great selfie, and the Lenovo Vibe
S1 is an ode to the selfie generation. It comes with a dual front camera
setup - 8-megapixel primary shooter, and a 2-megapixel camera that
senses depth information. This setup, of course, is not dissimilar to
what we've seen on the likes of the
HTC One M8, but that was on the rear
camera.
Lenovo Vibe S1 brings the same technology to the front shooter.

This
means that you can take a selfie and using the depth information
captured by the secondary camera, you can then refocus it any object in
the image - if you stay awake at night thinking about blurry selfies (it
takes all kinds to make the world), then you can rest easy after
getting the Vibe S1. Lenovo has included the usual software tricks
you'd expect - the software comes with object detector, which means it
can cut you out from an image taken in Borivali and place you in front of
the Eiffel Tower, a feature budget travellers will really appreciate.
Though
we are not as selfie-obsessed as some of our peers, we got a chance to
test the software features of the Lenovo Vibe S1 and they work as
advertised. The phone sports a run-of-the-mill design but feels solid
and has a good display. It is backed by an impressive package - a
13-megapixel camera, a 64-bit octa-core processor, 3GB RAM, 32GB
in-built storage (expandable by another 128GB via a microSD card), 4G/
LTE connectivity (no word yet on India bands support), and a 2500mAh
battery. The only disappointment is the presence of the dated Android
5.0 Lollipop.

The
Lenovo Vibe S1 carries an international price of $299 (approximately
Rs. 20,000) but there's no word on the shipping date yet. Note that
India price and availability details haven't been announced yet.
