Lenovo has officially launched the successor to its Vibe X2 and the third-variant in its Vibe X series in China. The Vibe X3 carries similar design of last year’s sharp-edge model, instead bears more fluid rounded shapes. What’s interesting is that the Vibe X3 launched in a total of 3 smartphone versions.
The Lenovo Vibe X3 will be available in two different variants and the third one comes with a lower price-tag around. One with a better feature specs and higher-end model. It’s more of a 2+1 affair and these have a similar 5.5-inch fullHD 1080p resolution display and Gorilla Glass 3 protection.
The Vibe X3 opts for a totally new design which is curvier and more ‘palm-friendly’ than its predecessor and the slightly down-range model will likely to be called the Vibe X3 Lite. The two top-end models sport a Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 chipset with 3GB of RAM and 32GB or 64GB of on board storage and of course, has a microSD card support for expansion and both has a dual-SIM dual-standby functionality and 4G LTE connectivity options.
On the photography end, the Vibe X3 Common and official X3 uses a Sony IMX230 sensor with phase detection autofocus and 4K video recording with the power of 23MP camera on its back and an 8MP front-facing camera as well. Impressive features alsoinclde a 3600mAh battery package, thanks to Qualcomm’s QuickCharge 2.0 technology that should be pretty fast to top up as well.
