Comparisons Featuring Lava Z60

Short Review

  • The Lava Z60 features a compact design with dimensions of 143.6 x 72.3 x 9.1 mm and a weight of 149 grams, available in gold and black.
  • Its 5.0-inch IPS LCD display has a resolution of 480 x 854 pixels, offering a pixel density of approximately 196 ppi, but lacks HDR support.
  • Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT6737M chipset with a quad-core 1.1 GHz Cortex-A53 CPU and 1GB of RAM, which may limit multitasking capabilities.
  • The camera system includes a 5 MP rear camera with f/2.0 aperture and autofocus, capable of recording 1080p video, alongside a 5 MP front camera for selfies.
  • The 2500 mAh battery provides basic power without fast or wireless charging options.
  • Running on Android 7.0 Nougat, the software experience is straightforward but may feel dated compared to newer versions.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
  • The device features a microUSB 2.0 port and retains a 3.5mm headphone jack for audio.
  • Overall, the Lava Z60 is a basic smartphone with essential features suitable for everyday use.
  • Special features are minimal, focusing primarily on core functionalities.
