Lenovo P780 Review

Lenovo P780 was launched recently in India. The Lenovo P780 resembles most mid-range phablets in India because of its internal specifications, but differs from the crowd thanks to a couple of special features. One among its unique feature is that Lenovo P780 comes with an enormous 4000mAh (which according to a Lenovo Ad will help you last a week in an island). Another differentiating factor that bolsters its position over the other mid-range smartphones is its solid build quality.

Lenovo P780 Photo Gallery

Lenovo P780 was launched recently and you can check out our unboxing post here. Lenovo P780 belongs to the class of MediaTek MT6589 powered 5inch phablets with HD displays. What sets it apart from the other phones with similar features is its solid metal build quality and its huge 4000mAh battery(its steep price too).

lenovo-p780-photo-gallery-6

As I have mentioned before, the phone stands out because of its solid build quality but is on the heavier side. On the front, we have the stylish earpiece above the display and three capacitive touch keys below the display. The front and back material are fused together by a silver colored metal ring that houses the 3.5mm audio jack and the power lock button on the top and the volume rocker on the right side.

On the back of the phone, you get a solid metal material at the center that can be removed. Removing the metal cover, you can see the non user removable 4000mAh battery above which we have a couple of slots of SIM cards and a microSD card slot.

The phone looks gorgeous, but feels heavy and you will know more in our complete review which we will be putting up soon. Meanwhile, you can check out the entire photo gallery right below.

ashton-kutcher-lenovo

That 70s show, Jobs and Two and a Half Men star Ashton Kutcher has been hired by Lenovo as its new Product Engineer. While the job title might be reaching, Ashton’s role in the Chinese company seems far more detailed than the other celebrity associations in the past have been. Lenovo is fresh off the announcements of its new 8 inch and 10 inch Yoga Android tablets, with a refreshing design and an affordable price point, and they actually did a live stream from YouTube Space LA with Ashton Kutcher playing host. There was a promo that played during the live stream which clearly wanted to showcase Kutcher’s geek chops, which is not surprising, having known for being a tech investor.
