Introduction

Initial Thoughts
Lenovo made it clear it didn’t want to get into specifications war, but wanted to focus on user experience as well as building a good hardware – a combination it believes is going to dominate the smartphone trend in 2016. 


 there are some subtle additions like the Dolby Atmos integration, fingerprint scanner and the bundled ANTVR headset coupled with TheaterMax VR software.


removable panel which underneath houses the microSD and SIM slots. The K4 Note has curved metallic sides, which is reminiscent of Motorola’s design language that we had seen in the Vibe S1 as well.

Lenovo says the design has been especially optimized for multimedia watching. At 158 grams, the smartphone feels light enough to carry around. The slimmest edge is 3.8mm whereas the thickest edge is 9.1mm. The Dolby integrated speakers on top and bottom do remind us of HTC phones. 

Lenovo has improved the 5.5-inch display with features such as with 178 degree wide angle viewing at 450 Nits brightness, and a pixel density of 441ppi. Flexibility to tweak the color balance is quite a nifty addition.

Priced aggressively at Rs 11,999 (or Rs 12,499 if you buy the ANTVR Bundle)
