Android version and market relevance

The long-awaited announcement of a new smartphone from the manufacturer Lenovo, which took place in March 2018 (in our catalog you can see all smarphones of 2018). This is a new model Lenovo S5 — dual smartphone works on Android 8 Oreo, which does not receive software updates and will forever remain on the old version of Android. If this does not suit you, then be sure to check the selected ones DROID-smartphones in our catalog. These are models that work on the latest version of the Android OS or are updated on it.

And let’s look at an important function — the availability of 5G networks support in a smartphone. Lenovo S5 has not received support for 5G networks, but this does not mean that this model is bad and does not deserve your attention. Look at all the features of this smartphone and its price. It is possible that you will like it very much and will be suitable for purchase today. And after one or two years, when you choose the next new smartphone, then on the page of all 5G smartphones in our catalog you will see hundreds of smartphones from many manufacturers at different prices.

Screen, body and battery

Moderately large 5.7-inch screen, made by technology IPS LCD installed in the smartphone Lenovo S5.

The larger the screen, the larger the case. But in addition to the width and height of the hull, its thickness is important. At Lenovo S5 the thickness of the case is 7.8 mm, which turns out to be thick enough, maybe you will not be comfortable holding such a device in your hand.

The battery and the operating time also depend on the screen size. At Lenovo S5 installed battery for 3 000 mAh, and this is not enough, but not yet a lot.

Main camera and selfie camera

The smartphone Lenovo S5 got the main camera with multiple modules (dual camera smartphones): 13 MP with a regular lens + 13 MP B/W. And there is also a front camera that has one module: 16 MP Wide. If you judge only by the number of megapixels, then the main camera is quite normal. But the frontcamera very good, which will surprise you with its high quality shooting of selfie. It seems that we have already written many times that before buying you need to see a smartphone and hold it in your hands. And speaking about cameras, I would like to repeat the same idea once again — look at the reviews about this model, see examples of photos taken by this smartphone. It often happens that in search of a low price, you buy a model with a camera of tens of megapixels, but the photos and videos will not be of high quality.

Processor and Internal Memory

The smartphone performance is affected by a lot of factors, and even more so on the android-smartphone, where the developer of the Android operating system and the device manufacturer are absolutely different companies and each develops with its strategy in the market. As a result, in the smartphone you get a hodgepodge: it′s like a “clean” Android, but with a shell from the manufacturer; as though only the necessary applications, but also many unnecessary from the manufacturer. Very often Android-installed apps by default, which you do not even use, are still running and working, they occupy part of the RAM and processor time of your smartphone. This slows the work of other applications and the battery charge is wasted.

So, in Lenovo S5 is installed 8-core processor on the chipset Snapdragon 625. As for RAM, the memory module is used here 3 GB, but if this is not enough for you, then there is a version for 4 GB. You can choose the right version of the smartphone, but note that the price of these versions is different.

You can store your photos, videos, music and applications both on the built-in smartphone memory, and on memory cards microSD up to 128 GB. The manufacturer releases several versions of this smartphone with different memory sizes: 32/64/128 GB. Before buying, be sure to decide how many gigabytes you need.

Price for Lenovo S5: buy or not to buy?

Life is fleeting, and the life of a smartphone on the mobile market in general can be compared with the life of a butterfly. And all because the producers of android-smartphones do not always want to support their devices and prefer to release a new model in six months. Therefore, our task is to help you choose the actual smartphone today, which is being sold and will be still relevant for at least the next six months. If Lenovo S5 you find among DROID smartphones in our catalog, you can safely buy it now, and if you do not find it, then its better already do not buy.

However, official sales Lenovo S5 began in April 2018. The manufacturer said the price of $150 without taxes and fees. With such a price level on Lenovo S5, we placed it in the price segment “Affordable smartphones from $100 to $200”.

Buy Lenovo S5 you can in any store (or on the Internet, or in the electronics supermarket), we just advise you to see live on the smartphone and hold it in your hands before buying.
