Lenovo A7000 Turbo is the latest upgrade of the impressive A7000 smartphone that was unveiled earlier last year. This device comes with a better display, an octa-core processor, newer software, 4G LTE connectivity and Dolby Atmos audio for a more enjoyable user experience.
Build and Display
In terms of look, nothing significant has changed between this smartphone and the original Lenovo A7000. The thickness is virtually the same at 8 millimetres, but this one tips the scale at 150 grams.
Lenovo A7000 Turbo packs a 5.5-inch OGS IPS display with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels. The touchscreen offers viewing angles of up to 178 degrees ensuring immersive viewing with a high pixel density of 401 ppi.
Camera and Storage
The A7000 Turbo packs a robust 13-megapixel Omnivision camera with an f/2.0 aperture, 5-element lens and dual-LED flash on the rear. For selfies, you get another 5-megapixel Omnivision front-facing snapper with an f/2.2 aperture size.
Built-in storage has a decent capacity of 16 GB, which should cater to the needs of basic users. You will be able to another 32 GB using a microSD card.
Power and Performance
Lenovo A7000 Turbo is driven by a powerful MediaTek MT6752 octa-core processor pacing along at speeds of up to 1.7 GHz. This robust CPU is assisted in its task by decent RAM of 2GB capacity which should boost the level of multitasking you should rightly expect the phablet to support.
However, the fact that the device still runs Android 5.0 Lollipop OS may be considered a tad disappointing. The software is overlaid with Vibe UI 2.0 skin. The handset is accompanied by a 2900mAh battery, similar to the one on the original Lenovo A7000, but based on Li-Ion technology.
Miscellaneous Specs and Features
Comparable to the original phablet, the Lenovo A7000 Turbo is designed to pump out rich sound, thanks to the inclusion of Dolby Atmos audio technology. Its Chinese maker promises users awesome 360-degree sound experience.
The phablet comes with dual-SIM slots and supports 4G LTE connectivity. MicroUSB 2.0 with on-the-go (OTG) support, Bluetooth 3.0 + 4.1 LE, and Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n with Wi-Fi hotspot are also available for connectivity.
Pricing and Availability
Lenovo A7000 Turbo is not yet available in Nigeria. When available, you can buy it at leading online stores in the country. Lenovo A7000 Turbo Price in Nigeria is expected to range from N35,000 to N45,000 depending on your location in Nigeria.
