Lenovo K3 Note: affordable midrange phablet with capable hardware

 

Lenovo has a new affordable smartphone called the Lenovo K3 Note. Like its predecessor, it’s meant to compete against competing devices that are luring customer mostly for their incredibly low prices.

As the name implies, the Lenovo K3 Note is a phablet with a 5.5-inch 1080p display. Like the original K3 before it, this new upsized version sports a bright yellow back cover with a unique circular ring encompassing the company logo. I thought it was some sort of loudspeaker at first glance, but it’s just merely an aesthetic aspect.

The specs inside the Lenovo K3 Note are what justify it as an affordable yet capable midrange smartphone.
