Short Review

  • The Lenovo K5 Play features a sleek design with dimensions of 153.8 x 72.6 x 7.9 mm and a weight of 155 grams, available in black, gray, and blue.
  • It sports a 5.7-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 720 x 1440 pixels, providing a pixel density of approximately 282 ppi.
  • Performance is driven by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 430 chipset, an octa-core CPU clocked at 1.4 GHz, and options for 2GB or 3GB of RAM, ensuring decent multitasking capabilities.
  • The camera system includes a 13 MP rear camera with a secondary 2 MP depth sensor, capable of recording 1080p video at 30fps, while an 8 MP front camera serves for selfies.
  • The battery capacity is 3000 mAh, supporting standard charging without wireless options.
  • Running on Android 8.0 (Oreo) with ZUI 3.7, the software experience is straightforward but lacks some modern features.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.2, and a microUSB 2.0 port, though it does not support 5G or NFC.
  • The device lacks water resistance and stereo speakers, but it retains a headphone jack for audio.
  • Overall, the Lenovo K5 Play offers a basic yet functional smartphone experience with essential features.
