Lenovo A7000: reviews about the smartphone
The Chinese manufacturer Lenovo continuesto please with their new, affordable and functional devices. So, Lenovo A7000 became one of the devices deserving attention of customers. Reviews on the gadget show that the model has all the advantages of a smartphone that can make it sellable and well-known.
We will not judge this topic based onexclusively on someone else's opinion. Instead, we suggest that you familiarize yourself with our own review, which will help to disclose more information about what the said device is. A Lenovo A7000 reviews found on the network will help us to better know what disadvantages the smartphone hides, and what the buyer should pay attention to first.
Equipment
Traditionally, we begin our survey with an inventory of what,that is offered with the device. So, by opening the package, we find, of course, the smartphone itself, placed in a special recess. As befits, under it are other components. This is a charger, headphones, battery and manual. We can conclude that the developers are not stingy in the matter of equipping the phone.
Of course, equipping the phone with suchadditions, like a headset and a spare battery, does not play a special role, but it's nevertheless nice to see some developer's efforts to expand the proposed package.
Design
However, we leave the equipment and move ondirectly to the exterior of the device. At once I would like to note that the device is represented in the class "Fable". This means that it (with a screen size of 5.5 inches) is something middle between a full-fledged smartphone and a tablet computer. Such a case, by the way, has become very popular recently due to the relatively compact size and wide possibilities that such a large display opens.
So, the device has a slim body, whichis made of high quality plastic. Externally, say exactly what material is made of a smartphone is very difficult. Elegance is given, firstly, by the color combination (in the review the smartphone Lenovo A7000 White is involved, the reviews also indicate that the Black version is on sale); secondly, the refinement of the body is attached to the shiny buttons on the side edges. Although they are small in size, they are pressed clearly and confidently, so it's a pleasure to work with them.
In addition to side navigation elements, the Lenovo A7000 (reviews confirm) also have a front touchpad with classic Android gadgets with three keys).
Attractive looks and a model back coverA7000 - decorating its forms are somewhat similar to how the Lenovo Vibe Z3 is designed (the same rectangular design features). On the left corner of the case there is a rectangular camera, below it there is a flash; and on the right side of the cover you can see a grid of dynamics, also presented in a rectangular shape. The cover, by the way, is removed here - and this is really a convenient solution in a situation where it is necessary to replace the battery, SIM card or microSD.
Screen
Characteristics of the display installed on LenovoA7000, reviews are called quite sufficient for daily work. Looking at them, we'll see the resolution of the HD-format (which makes the picture on the device as realistic and deep as possible). This also allows you to talk about the highest density of dots per inch, and therefore even with a careful examination, notice the graininess effect on the display is not so simple.
In addition, it is positively possible to characterizethe level of the backlight of the screen (the brightness reserve is quite enough for working in sunlight); It is also possible to reduce the brightness to a minimum for comfortable reading when the lighting is off.
As noted by Lenovo's A7000 reviews, the tilt angles here also retain a good image that does not fade or darken.
CPU
On the device described by us the chip fromMediaTek, which, as you know, goes in combination with budget solutions. This is the model MT6572M, which has 8 cores with a clock speed of up to 1.5 GHz. Taking into account the memory capacity of 2 GB, we can talk about a sufficiently high level of device performance and good performance (in terms of interaction with "bulky" games on Google Play). During the review, we conducted a series of tests using various (popular now) benchmarks, which showed good results.
As for the memory of the device, it consists oftwo parts - this is the amount available by default, equal to 8 GB on Lenovo A7000. Reviews, as well as technical specifications note that in total, the smartphone provides 16 GB of physical memory; However, half of them are occupied by system files, because of what we can talk only about eight.
Battery
Lenovo smartphones that have powerful hardware,judging by the reviews, often suffer from low endurance, with batteries of small capacity. So, according to the technical data, Lenovo A7000 (8gb), which we were looking for, has a battery with a capacity of 2900 mAh. Of course, the site presents the results of official measurements of the endurance of this battery; However, as we know, they do not always correspond to reality. In order not to repeat them, we will note it easier - when interacting with the phone in normal (everyday) mode (which provides 3-4 hours of active glow of the screen and periodic work with 3G / LTE networks for 30-40 minutes), the device can hold up to two days on one charge. Of course, if you use it more actively, this indicator will decrease. In any case, describing the Lenovo A7000 Dual reviews will call the device not sufficiently hardy - this is normal, given the level of charge consumption of such smartphones.
Connectivity
In fact, in communication opportunitiessmartphone is nothing special, even if you compare the A7000 with competing models. The phone supports working with 2 cards (you can understand this based on the name that the smartphone wears - Lenovo A7000 Dual Sim Black). Customer reviews related to the description of the device's network support note that the phone keeps excellent communication, even in places where the signal is weak.
In addition to simple support for the operation of the GSM module,Lenovo still has a Bluetooth option for transferring files; GPS-module in order to determine the location and lay a further route; as well as Wi-Fi to connect to high-speed wireless Internet. In addition, there is support and high-speed LTE connection (although it is more relevant for large cities).
operating system
Of course, on smartphones Lenovo (A7000 - notexception) is installed Android OS. Since the device was released relatively recently, it housed the version of the 5-series. Probably, at the moment the developers have taken care of the output of the update to the 6th generation of Android.
True, rely on a "clean" modificationthe system does not have to - the Chinese installed the graphics shell Vibe UI (initially, as you might guess by name, it was installed on the Vibe Z3 model). Externally, this "superstructure" somewhat differentiates the interface from the "classic" Android; however, there are no significant features here. Unless you can say about the new (for the 5th generation OS) user account management function, which has at its disposal a set of security options.
Software Features
Exclusive (from the developers) shell Vibehas some additions that make working with a smartphone more comfortable. Features it can not be named, as all of them can be installed and on any other device - however their set, as noted by Lenovo A7000 Onyx Black reviews, provides convenience.
So, first of all, we note the novelty - the function"Live keyboard". It works by means of a sensor for changing the angle of the device: on the screen, the finger of the user is set to the area of the keys; then, tilting the device from side to side, you can write text. In order to do this quickly, of course, you need to get used to it, however it is not difficult.
In addition, it is also possible to note the newequalizer Dolba Atmos. Its description is a topic for a separate article; it is only necessary to say that its wide range of functions allows you to improve the sound of works, customize the settings and, thus, "adjust" the reproduction to your taste.
Camera
It is impossible to forget about cameras when writing a review,installed on the smartphone. So, according to technical information about our A7000, this model was equipped with two modules for capturing images, resolution of 8 and 5 megapixels (main and front respectively). The rear camera is also equipped with a flash (which is harmoniously inscribed in the design of the case - this we mentioned above).
The quality of images received on a smartphone LenovoA7000 (8Gb), reviews are mostly called satisfactory - taking into account the cost of the device, its positioning. However, there are also those who think otherwise: they say, too low a detail of the pictures, a bad balance of color and so on. In the course of the survey, it was found that in bad lighting, colors really "get lost"; there is a certain "noise".
However, when working under more favorable conditions, there can be no criticism of the quality of the camera.
Reviews
When writing the review, we tried methodicallyrefer to the opinions of some users describing this or that option of the device. In addition, in a separate way I would like to draw your attention to the shortcomings that the buyers write about. After all, in fact, knowing about them, our readers will be able to take a more objective position in relation to the described smartphone.
Just want to mention that some seriousdefects from the manufacturer's side are not called. The phone is really good - its stability, speed, functionality - all this has already been confirmed by a mass of comments. Therefore we will name only insignificant shortcomings. These include, in particular, creaking on some devices the back cover; weak camera (already mentioned); Low sound in Dolby Atmos system; small amount of internal memory; color combination on the AMOLED display.
All these are facultative shortcomings, which may seem so far from every buyer.
conclusions
Initially, the developers tried to doa smartphone Lenovo A7000 8 GB (customer reviews confirm these guesses) is ideal in terms of price-performance ratio. In this case, unlike other Chinese companies, they did not seriously underestimate the price, cutting costs for high-quality components; here did not save on the chipset or display - it all turned out to be really high-quality. In addition, pleases the layout of the device, which has a powerful battery, an attractive design, an individual interface.
By releasing such smartphones, Lenovo can continue its growth in the mobile market, increasingly attracting buyers from the giants of Samsung, HTC and others.
