Build and Display
With a dimension of 152.6 x 76.2 x 8 millimetres, the Lenovo K3 Note should not be too big for you to carry around. It is not only slim as a phablet; it is equally lightweight at just 150 grams.
The K3 Note packs a bigger display with a diagonal size of 5.5 inches, compared to the 5-inch display on the original K3. The screen has the same full HD (1920 x 1080 pixels) resolution as the K3 for a pixel density 401 ppi.
Camera and Storage
Lenovo did not disappoint with the cameras provided on the K3 Note. The budget phablet packs a 13-megapixel rear camera with LED flash as well as a 5-megapixel front-facing shooter.
With this configuration, you should expect to capture superb images with the Lenovo K3 Note. And if the provided storage space of 16GB is not enough for all the pictures and videos you will be capturing, you can go ahead and add up to 32GB extra storage space using a microSD.
Hardware and Software
The Lenovo K3 Note is driven by a more powerful processor. Instead of the quad-core chip that was supplied on the Lenovo K3, this phablet is furnished with an octa-core MediaTek chipset with Cortex A53 cores running at 1.7GHz.
The 64-bit processor is complemented by a Mali-T760MP2 GPU and RAM of 2GB. Lenovo K3 Note runs on the Android 5.0 Lollipop operating system, overlaid with Lenovo’s Vibe UI. A larger battery with an ample capacity of 3000 mAh supplies juice needed to power the phablet.
The $149-priced Lenovo K3 Note supports the use of two SIM cards as well as 4G LTE connectivity. Other regulars such as Bluetooth, microUSB, Wi-Fi and GPS with A-GPS are equally present on the budget-friendly phablet.
Pricing & Availability
Lenovo K3 Note is not yet available in Nigeria. When available, you can buy it at leading online stores in Nigeria. Lenovo K3 Note price in Nigeria is expected to range from N28,000 to N35,000 depending on your location in the country.
