According to this, you can say that 5 plus popular phones 3 notes of (Review) is an update that has been introduced with a premium look at a lower price. What Lenovo Is this phone of purchasable? Learn the features and shortcomings of smartphones in our review.
Look and design
The price of Vibe’s 5 Plus may be low but its look is excellent. We got a silver color variant for review but this phone is also available in gold and gray color variants. There are a camera and sensor window on the top of the phone’s display and capacitive navigation buttons at the bottom. But due to lack of capacitive buttons of the phone, there may be trouble in the dark. The place of waste is not empty towards the edges of the screen, so that the phone can be used easily with one hand.
The edges and rear of the phone are made simultaneously which makes a little difficulty in removing the rear cover. It seems that plastic has been used at the top and bottom with the metal in the middle, but the rear is completely of plastic with a thin metal layer.
There is a camera in a corner on the rear with single LED flash. The bottom is the most special two speaker grills and dolby logo. In general, stereo speakers are given very few in budget phones. There are 3.5mm audio sockets and micro-USB ports on the top side of the smartphone and the power and volume button on the right side.
The battery of the phone can be removed. On removing the battery, you can see two micro-SIM slots and a separate microSD card slot. On purchasing the phone, you will get a 1.5A charger, UAB cable and screen protector. Lenovo does not give any headset with the phone.
Specification and software
Lenovo Vibe’s 5 Plus has a mid-range Qualcomm Snapdragon 616 processor. The phone has 2 GB RAM and 16 GB internal storage. Vibe’s 5 plus comes with LTE support. The battery capacity is 2750 mAh and has all standard connectivity features such as Bluetooth 4.1, Wi-Fi B/G/N, AGPS and UAB-OTG.
The phone has a 5 inch display with a resolution of 1080×1920. This display is good in this price phone. The phone supports Lenovo’s VR headset to give great experience. The rear camera is 13 megapixels while the front camera is 5 megapixels. 1080 pixels video recording can be done from the phone. Dolby Audio Ainhensment is also available.
But the phone does not have features like fingerprint sensor and eye amme, while other low -priced phones come with these special features. It seems that Lenovo has given the metal body in this phone as the specialty of the phone.
Lenovo has decided not to give all the benefits of the new Vibe UI given in the premium Vibe X3 this year to the customers. Along with the app drawer in the phone, they have not been given the option to switch them. The phone is based on 5.1.1.
The phone has the Lenovo Companion app so that you can check the software update and basic performance sub-system test. It can also be used to transfer files and backup data just like apps like shares and syncite. In the theme center, you will find six types of themes and many types of wallpapers but will not get stock Android. Apart from this, many apps including game stores, Twitter, Skype, WeChat, UC Browser, Flipkart, Mantra, Evernote and Trucolor will be pre-installed but they can also be removing according to the need.
Performance
We got a good call from every side of Vibe’s 5 Plus. The screen is sharp and shiny, although the color seems slightly light. At the same time, the audio in the phone is sharp and clear. The twin speaker given in the phone gives a great voice. Dolby Atmos Control gives the smartphone a different feeling from the rest of the phone but it only works in the supported app. Our biggest complaint about this phone is to be more heated during the use of YouTube video streaming of rear part of the phone.
In the benchmark test, we also got the figures like other budget smartphones from this phone. But from 3 Note, Vibe’s 5 Plus earned low figures in the benchmark test.
The quality of photos taken from the phone’s camera was good. Closeup shots are good with the phone’s camera. Focus in the phone’s camera is a major problem in every type of light. Every time we had to hold the phone tightly while taking the picture, otherwise the result could have been bad. However, all these problems come to light only when you zoom the pictures in full size. You will also get selected filter options in the camera. The video recorded at 1080 pixels is good but the phone is very hot even during recording. Apart from this, we also found a limited period of 30 minutes to record the video in the phone.
The battery of Lenovo Vibe’s 5 Plus smartphone lasts for a day during simple use. In our video loop test, the phone’s battery supported for 6 hours and 46 minutes, which is much less than the average. The battery of the phone is also very slowly charged.
Our decision
Lenovo seems to have the second much better phones at the moment. With a low price, this phone could have been as popular as 3 notes of Lenovo with a better feature and look, but we have a lot of complaints about the weak battery and the problem of being too hot.
Talking about performance, Vibe’s 5 plus collision is expensive Honor 5X (Review) and with the same price Carbon Quatro L50 This phone of Lenovo is also competed with HD. Although Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 You can feel more happy by buying (review) at a little higher price.
