After launching first-of-its-kind ‘layered’ smartphone, Vibe X2 in September, it now seems like Lenovo may soon launch a thinner, larger version of the handset.
According to a new listing spotted on Tenna, a Chinese smartphone certification website, the Lenovo Vibe X2 variant codenamed Lenovo X2Pt5, sports a larger 5.3-inch screen, running the same full-HD screen resolution. Since the device has a large screen size, it is also taller than the original Vibe X2 and is also thinner by 0.5mm (6.8mm).
However, the processor seen in the listing of the Lenovo’s new phone is the same octa-core MediaTek processor as seen in the Vibe X2, but clocked at a lower 1.5GHz instead of 2GHz. The front-facing camera has been also bumped form 5-megapixels to 8-megapixels (via Phonearena). Rest of the specifications remain the same. It is not yet clear as to when will Lenovo launch the Vibe X2 variant
To recall, the Lenovo Vibe X2 which was launched in India at Rs. 19,999, features a 5-inch (1080×1920 pixels) IPS display and runs Android 4.4 KitKat out-of-the-box with Vibe UI 2.0. It is powered by a 2GHz octa-core MediaTek MT6595m processor, comes with 2GB of RAM, and includes 32GB of inbuilt storage.
Other specifications of the Vibe X2 include a 13-megapixel autofocus rear camera; a 5-megapixel front camera; a 2300mAh battery; 4G LTE (with support for Indian LTE bands); Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n/ac; Bluetooth, and Micro-USB. It measures 140.2×68.6×7.27mm and weighs 120 grams.
