Lenovo Vibe Z vs Lenovo K900 Hands on


The Lenovo K900 was one of the better Android smartphones during 2013 and Lenovo hopes that its successor – Lenovo Vibe Z will do even better. The Lenovo Vibe Z was announced during November 2013 and it is being showcased at CES 2014. We had a Lenovo K900 nearby and hence took a small hands on comparison between the yesteryear flagship and the new flagship. You can check out the video right below.

The Lenovo K900 looked sturdy and sported what could be described as a Industrial build. The Lenovo K900 was infact one of the most solid and beautifully built Android smartphones in 2013 and Lenovo Vibe Z hopes to build on its success. Despite being great looking, it was too big for everyone. The 5.5inch display wasn’t the sole reason for its huge size and Lenovo have worked that out in the Vibe Z as it is lighter and much more compact than the K900.

The build quality of Lenovo Vibe Z is exceptional as well(like most Lenovo phones) and takes up the new design language that Lenovo is expected to follow hereafter.
