Short Review

  • The Lenovo A820 features a compact design with dimensions of 135 x 68.2 x 9.9 mm and weighs 151 grams, making it easy to handle.
  • Its 4.5-inch IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 540 x 960 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 245 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks.
  • Powered by a Mediatek MT6589 chipset and a quad-core 1.2 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU, the phone delivers moderate performance suitable for everyday applications.
  • The 8 MP rear camera captures decent images but lacks optical image stabilization and has a maximum video recording capability of 720p.
  • Battery life is supported by a 2000 mAh capacity, but it does not offer fast or wireless charging options.
  • Running on Android 4.1.2 (Jelly Bean), the software experience is dated compared to newer versions.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
  • The phone has a microUSB 2.0 port for charging and data transfer, and it includes a standard headphone jack.
