The much awaited Lenovo S5 has been announced and would officially make its debut on the 25th of March 2018. Lenovo stylishly waited for the 2018 Mobile World Congress to cool off before announcing this beauty.
Nonetheless, we are still in the mobile season and we will welcome the Lenovo S5 with open hands. This sleek device dishes out a bezel-less screen, packs 4GB RAM and 64GB Storage. Would you like to know more? Stay with me.
Design
Looks so plain to be honest, with a combination of Metal and Plastic to finish the body. The dual rear camera in a horizontal position at the top left is one of the highlight at the back. Beside the dual shooters is a dual-LED flash, ready to take over the night.
The fingerprint scanner is at the usual position, while the Lenovo logo and loudspeaker sits at the bottom corner. Turning over to the sides, it measures about 8.4 mm in thickness and weighs less than 190g overall. It’s only available at the moment in Red and Black colors.
Display
The company didn’t go the top-notch way with this though. Nonetheless, it dishes out an 18:9 aspect ratio and giving us a Full View display, especially when in landscape mode. No navigation buttons at the bottom bezel, while the top houses the usual features.
It’s also noteworthy to see how tiny the narrow bezels are and how impressive the screen is overall. Speaking of the screen, the 5.65-inch FHD+ IPS LCD capacitive touchscreen is absolutely breathtaking. Boasting of 2160 x 1080 pixels in resolution and 427.43 pixel per inch density for stunning visuals.

Wow! Wow!! Wow!!!!! Lenovo are really doing very massive job! 64GB ROM and 4GB RAM is just so super best and the battery capacity is OK for the spec the phone come with so I am giving Lenovo a 10/10 for this! Nice one sir
Wow! 64GB ROM, 4GB RAM. That’s absolutely awesome! Lenovo has always made the list of my best mobile devices. Though, I would have preferred a 4000mAh battery capacity. But, 3000 is still OK. This device is a beauty to behold.
Brilliant review. Well done, bro.
