Design and Display

The Vibe K5 looks like what might have been considered a premium device last year with a metal feel. It has a relatively slim body and is somewhat lightweight at 142 grams. The colour options of platinum silver, champagne gold and grey further enhance the aesthetic appeal. The phone, which is also known simply as the Lenovo K5, uses a 5-inch display with an HD resolution of 1,280 x 720 pixels.

Camera and Storage

For shot taking, the Lenovo Vibe K5 comes with an impressive 13-megapixel rear-facing shooter. You will also find a 5-megapixel snapper on the front for taking selfies and making video calls. The device packs ample storage capacity of 16 GB for storing your photos and videos. Storage space can be pushed further by another 32 GB using a microSD card.

Processor, RAM and Operating System

It looks like the Lenovo Vibe K5 will deliver great value for money in terms of performance. This is because it is armed with an octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 415 processor with an Adreno 405 graphics solution. The CPU is given support by a respectable 2 GB of RAM for smooth multitasking. The Vibe K5 will boot Android 5.1 Lollipop operating system which delivers feature-rich user experience.

Sundry Features

Power will be supplied to the Lenovo Vibe K5 by a 2,750mAh battery promising all-day usage on a charge. It allows you separate work from play with the availability of dual SIM slots. Blazing-fast 4G LTE connectivity is also promised for this budget-friendly smartphone. Connectivity options also include microUSB 2.0, Bluetooth 4.1, and Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n.

Pricing and Availability

The Lenovo Vibe K5 is expected to go on sale from this month at a price of only $129. That price converts to a price in the range N26,000-N42,000, based on the current wide variation in exchange rate. This phone represents a better deal than the 4G version of Acer Liquid Zest, which in itself is well-priced.
