As a cheap version of the annual flagship Lenovo VIBE Z2 Pro (K920), Lenovo's VIBE Z2 still continues the iconic hard shape of Lenovo's K series and the metal body. Although the hardware configuration is reduced a lot, the maximum screen brightness still reaches 600nit and the ultra-thin body continues, and the relatively low price is also more accessible.
In terms of appearance design, you may think that it is another version of Lenovo VIBE Z2 Pro (K920) without paying attention. Lenovo VIBE Z2 continues its strong and aggressive design style with sharp edges and corners. Its all metal body design and similar wire drawing lines are still very popular with metal controllers. A 5.5 inch screen on the front, although the frame is not as thin as Lenovo's VIBE Z2 Pro (K920), it is also beautiful enough.
On the top are earphones, front cameras, sensors and LED indicators.
Lenovo VIBE Z2 is designed as a solid touch key, which is the same as Lenovo VIBE Z2 Pro (K920) in design and layout, including menu key, home key and return key.
Lenovo VIBE Z2 has designed the volume key and power key on the same side, and the position is relatively lower, so it is easy to operate with one hand.
Lenovo VIBE Z2 is still designed for dual cards, and only one card slot supports 4G.
The top and bottom are earphone holes, speakers, and mirco USB connectors. Although the bottom seems to be a dual speaker design, only the left side is the speaker.
Although compared with the 16 million pixels of Lenovo's VIBE Z2 Pro (K920), Lenovo's VIBE Z2 has been reduced to 13 million pixels, the more important optical anti shake still remains, and of course, the camera highlights also remain.
Interestingly, compared with the camera of Lenovo VIBE Z2 Pro (K920) with red circle logo, the camera of Lenovo VIBE Z2 is silver. At the time of IFA release, the back camera of Lenovo VIBE Z2 rendering was red, while the engineering testing machine sent for testing was silver. It is unclear whether the retail version will use red.
The metal body of Lenovo VIBE Z2 still has a bright edge, which surrounds the whole body. Compared with Lenovo VIBE Z2 Pro (K920), it is more integrated and beautiful.
Due to the difference of screen size, the difference in body size is also obvious. The metal pattern on the back of the fuselage may be different due to different product positioning. Compared with the suits and shoes of Lenovo VIBE Z2 Pro (K920), Lenovo VIBE Z2 looks more young, refined and dynamic.
Due to the size change, Lenovo VIBE Z2 is very comfortable on one hand, which should be the limit of my single hand operation.
Lenovo VIBE Z2 Pro (K920), as a flagship, is admired for its shape design, hardware configuration and shooting ability, but its relatively high price has turned down many people. Lenovo VIBE Z2, which continues the same shape design and shooting ability, is a good complement, and its performance is also expected.
Lenovo VIBE Z2 uses a 1.2GHz MSM8916 processor. The performance of this 64 bit processor can make the 5.5 inch 720P screen have a good use experience? What about the experience and actual use of this 600nit brightness screen and 3000mAh battery? We will answer these questions for you.
