Lenovo just launched the Lenovo K8 Note in India. The deca-core Helio X23 SoC inside it makes K8 Note the first phone to sport this processor.
The phone shares the same 5.5-inch 1080p screen with the K5 Note and K6 Note. Although the new Deca-Core processor is a game changer. Paired with 3/4GB of RAM and 32/64GB of expandable storage, the Lenovo has definitely brought choices to encircle a large number of customers. The display is capable of 450 nits of brightness and features a 2.5D curved glass screen.
Camera-wise, the phone embraces a dual-camera setup on the back. The 13MP PureCel®Plus sensor on the rear panel is accompanied by a secondary camera of 5MP and dual-tone flash. The twin, when in action, sprinkles Bokeh effect on the images with the 13MP primary bringing in high-end imaging capabilities and the 5MP secondary sensor garnering the depth information. On the front, there is a 13MP front facing camera with f/2.0 aperture, a wide-angle lens and LED flash.
On the software side, the Lenovo K8 Note runs on stock Android 7.1.1 Nougat along with Lenovo’s Theatermax tech and Dolby Atmos. The fingerprint sensor lies on the back of the phone. There is also a 4000mAh battery with support for Turbo Charging charging at a rate of 15W.
The phone supports dual SIM along with 4G. There is also a pretty decent 802.11 ac wifi and Bluetooth 4.2 on board. It also has a dedicated music key to control the music app.
