Comparisons Featuring Lenovo Phab
Short Review
- The Lenovo Phab features a large 6.98-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, providing decent visuals at approximately 210 ppi.
- Its build dimensions are 186 x 97 x 8.9 mm, weighing 250 grams, which gives it a substantial feel in hand.
- Performance is driven by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 chipset with a quad-core CPU and 1GB of RAM, suitable for basic tasks but may lag with demanding applications.
- The rear camera is a 13 MP unit capable of recording 1080p video at 30fps, while the 5 MP front camera is adequate for selfies.
- The battery capacity stands at 4250 mAh, providing extended usage without fast charging or wireless capabilities.
- Running on Android 5.1 Lollipop, the software experience is relatively dated but functional.
- Connectivity options include dual-band Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4.0, though it lacks 5G and NFC support.
- The device is available in multiple colors, including Tuxedo Black and Aqua Blue.
- Special features are minimal, with no water resistance or stereo speakers.
- Overall, the Lenovo Phab is a basic phablet that prioritizes size and battery life over cutting-edge specifications.
