Comparisons Featuring Lenovo LePhone S2

Short Review

  • The Lenovo LePhone S2 features a compact design with dimensions of 122 x 60 x 10.9 mm and a weight of 120g, making it lightweight and easy to handle.
  • Its 3.8-inch LCD display offers a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 246 ppi, suitable for basic tasks but lacking HDR support.
  • Powered by a dual-core 1.4 GHz Cortex-A9 processor and available with either 512MB or 1GB of RAM, the performance is adequate for everyday use but may struggle with more demanding applications.
  • The rear camera boasts an 8 MP sensor with autofocus, capable of recording video at 720p, while the absence of a front-facing camera limits selfie capabilities.
  • The battery capacity stands at 1500mAh, which may require frequent charging due to its modest size.
  • Running on Android 2.3.4 (Gingerbread), the software experience is dated, lacking many modern features and updates.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 2.1, but there is no support for 5G or NFC.
  • The device includes a microUSB 2.0 port for charging and data transfer but lacks wireless charging capabilities.
  • Overall, the Lenovo LePhone S2 is a basic smartphone that meets essential needs without advanced features.
  • Its design and performance are suitable for users looking for a simple device.
