Here comes another entry-level smartphone carrying the Go Edition OS and a solidly basic look. The specs therein are all basic which makes the Lava Z60s very affordable and an easy buy for most. Suitable for first-time smartphone users introducing the Android world to the user. Also, the smartphone goes ahead to feature off-screen capacitive touch buttons just below the display. Check out some of the features on the smartphone.
Lava Z60s Key Specs and Features
- 5.0-inch, IPS LCD capacitive touchscreen, 1280 x 720 pixels
- Android 8.1 Oreo (Go Edition)
- Quad-core MediaTek MT6739WW CPU with 1GB RAM
- 16GB built-in storage space, up to 64GB with a memory card
- 5MP rear camera and a 5MP front camera
- 4G LTE
- 2, 500mAh non-removable Li-Po battery
Design and Display
For the most part of a low-budget smartphone like the Lava Z60s, there is a bold presence of bezel on the top and bottom. The smartphone ditches slim build but instead goes back to have the 16:9 aspect ratio from yore. You would also find out that the smartphone doesn’t have much weight with a 136g mark. The smartphone can be gotten in either Gold or Black finish having a single camera with a dual camera style and bottom speaker on the rear cover.
Even if budget smartphones are known to now feature a large display, the Lava Z60s comes with a lowly sized 5.0-inch LCD screen. It is not quite the bezel-less screen, albeit, not even close. Instead, it has a heavy chunk of space left on the vertical end of the smartphone. On the smartphone, you’ve got a 1280 x 720 pixel resolution which is a decent effort for an ‘Android Go’ smartphone.
Battery and Camera
In the league of entry-level smartphones, battery capacity is a light-weight affair which is why the Lava Z60s 2, 500mAh battery is still very okay. After all, the specs on the smartphone don’t warrant much more as you have on high-end smartphones. For charging, you’ll be using a MicroUSB port at the bottom of the smartphone.
Optics-wise, the Lava Z60s comes with a significantly lack-lustre kind of sensors which do not only take poor pictures but is also useless in low light cases. Especially when you’re coming from a more premium smartphone, the 5MP camera on the rear and 5MP front camera is not really that great but at the price it is good enough.
Hardware and Software
Furthermore, the Lava Z60s comes with just about the same engine as in several others in its category. There is a MediaTek MT6739WW processor which has four cores and comes with PowerVR GE8100 GPU. More so, the smartphone has a 1GB RAM and 16GB internal storage expandable to 64GB. You’ve got Android 8.1 Oreo pre-installed on the smartphone for more power.
Lava Z60s Pricing and Availability
The smartphone is available for around 26, 000 Naira depending on the deal and your location.
