Lenovo Vibe B With 4G LTE

Lenovo Vibe B With 4G LTE and 4.5-inch FWGA Display

 

Chinese smartphone vendor, Lenovo, reportedly launched a new smartphone in India, namely, the Lenovo Vibe B. To recall, the Vibe B is the same smartphone spotted in a Romania website back in August 2016. The Lenovo Vibe B is priced at Rs. 5,799 and will be available for purchase in Matte Black colour option starting today.

In terms of specifications, the Lenovo Vibe B does not justify the asking price as it carries a 4.5-inch FWGA display with a resolution of 480 x 854 pixels. At the heart of the phone is a MediaTek MTK6735m SoC, which is a 64-bit quad-core chip with all the cores clocked at 1GHz. The phone is armed with 1GB of RAM and to handle the graphics, Lenovo has gone with a Mali T720 MP1 GPU..

Storage wise, the phone comes with onboard storage of 8GB and comes with support for storage expansion up to 32GB via a microSD card slot. The Lenovo Vibe B packs a 5MP rear camera with LED flash and a 2MP front-facing camera to capture selfies and video calls.

Laden with Android 6.0 Marshmallow, the Lenovo Vibe B is armed with a small 2000mAh battery. Lenovo claims that the battery will deliver 11.3 hours of talk time and up to 175 hours of standby time on a 3G network. The Vibe B comes with a slew of connectivity options such as 4G LTE, Dual SIM, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, and a micro USB port. Currently, there’s no info whether the phone has VoLTE support or not.

Interestingly, the global product page of Lenovo Vibe B has gone live, but there’s no information on the Lenovo India’s official site about the phone, as of now. Having said that, the phone packs entry-level specifications, and they don’t justify the asking price of Rs. 5,799.

A little Rs. 1000 above, we have the Xiaomi Redmi 3s, which has got much better hardware in the form of Qualcomm Snapdragon 430, VoLTE, 2GB of RAM, and a beefy 4100mAh battery. What do you think of this Lenovo Vibe B smartphone?
