When manufacturers get into price wars with each other, it's customers who win the most. Lenovo has fired the latest salvo, bringing full-HD 1080p screens to the sub-Rs. 10,000 market. The Lenovo K3 Note is a 5.5-inch smartphone with specifications that would have been pretty much top tier not more than two years ago.The company is breaking new ground in terms of value for money, but not so much in terms of strategy. The K3 note is available only in limited numbers and only through flash sales through an exclusive tie-up with a major online retailer. It will be in demand because of the specifications it promises; according to Lenovo nearly 50,000 of them were grabbed in just over five seconds in the first flash sale.
We weren’t expecting to see 1080p screens on smartphones costing less than Rs. 10,000, but Lenovo has proved us wrong by launching the K3 Note. Amazingly, there are no significant compromises in order to accommodate this feature; the processor is an octa-core MediaTek MT6753, there’s 2GB of RAM and 16GB of storage, and even the software is up to date. Camera performance was a little disappointing, and battery life didn’t met our expectations without exceeding them. However performance was snappy, even in gaming tests. Not everyone likes phones this huge, but for those who do there are very few reasons not go choose the Lenovo K3 Note.
