Lenovo Z5 has finally been announced in China after numerous photo leaks and specs teasers. The device sports a notched screen, which of course didn’t live up to the expectations of fans and the claims the company made.
Nonetheless, the Snapdragon 636 is on-board with an octa-core processor. The dual rear camera and selfie camera are AI powered as well. There’s 6GB RAM and a storage space of up to 128GB. With its price tag, the Z5 sure offers value for money.
Design
The Z5 sports colorful and vibrant colours, this makes the device quite irresistible. The body reflects light in the most subtle way, the glass on top makes it look more premium. Nonetheless, this is definitely one of the cutest Lenovo smartphone thus far.

There’s a LED flash underneath the cameras, while the fingerprint scanner is at its usual position. It will be available in Black, Aurora and Blue colors only.
Display
According to leaks, the Lenovo Z5 was suppose to come with an all screen display, just like the Vivo Apex. However, there’s a notch and a bottom chin, the notch houses just the speaker grille, selfie camera and proximity sensor. The notch is also smaller compared to the Mi 8.
