Smartphone Lenovo K10 Plus - advantages and disadvantages

The autumn season of 2019 pleased users of mobile devices with many new smartphone models from leading manufacturers. The Chinese brand Lenovo has not lagged behind in terms of updating the arsenal of products offered. How the newcomer of the aforementioned company Lenovo K10 Plus turned out will be considered by the content of the presented article.

Appearance Features

The external design of the K 10 plus corresponds to the existing traditions of visualization of electronic mobile mechanisms: a strict body with rounded corners, a full screen, a teardrop-shaped cutout in the upper part of the front surface for a selfie sensor, on the back panel there is a triple main camera that is fashionable today and traditional for devices of this kind fingerprint sensor. A wide variety of color schemes for the design of the body part is not provided: classic black and, for a change, blue with a gradient options are offered.

Specifications

Display

The device is equipped with a touch screen, the diagonal of which corresponds to the size of 6.22 inches. For the manufacture of the display, IPS technology was used, which is distinguished by a decent level of color reproduction and viewing angles that are comfortable for the perception of the human organ of vision. Such a matrix is ​​used in their professional field by many specialists whose production activities are related to video editing, graphic design, processing of photo and video materials. The screen resolution is characterized by an indicator of 2340 * 1080, which corresponds to the parameters of FullHD + quality.

The proportion of the main dimensions of the display (length and width), like a great many modern devices, is equal to the standard ratio - 19½:9. Such an indicator, as operation practice shows, provides the owner of the device with convenience when viewing video content, text and graphic files, as well as fulfilling his other needs: communicating via Skype and e-mail, using social networks, implementing gaming addictions in mobile mode.

Platform

The smartphone provides for the operation of the ZUI 11 shell, the basis for which is the currently in-demand Android 9 Pie operating system.The specified version of the platform in 2019 was the most widely used in electronic devices, which is due to its capabilities related to the simplification of multitasking, as well as the implementation of an increased autonomy indicator by providing priority conditions to those applications that are most often used by the owner.

The phone device uses not the newest, but quite productive for the budget segment, the Snapdragon 632 chipset, made using a 14-nanometer process technology. The Adreno 506 video accelerator is used as a gaming component.

Memory

Internal data storages are characterized by the following volumes:

• random access memory - 4 GB;
• built-in storage - 64 GB.

With increased consumer requests for this parameter, it is possible to expand the available internal reserves due to an external source - a memory card, with which you can add up to 256 GB of memory. You can place a microSD in one of the tray slots, designed for two units of SIM cards.

Battery device

The lithium-polymer non-removable battery is responsible for the state of charge in the smartphone. The size of its capacity by modern standards is standard: it is 4050 mAh. We can say that for a budget model, this is a good indicator. During normal use of the device, this capacity should be enough to ensure the phone is in working condition for two days. With the active use of the phone for solving diverse tasks and merciless use as a means of implementing gaming processes or watching movies, you may need daily charge recovery.

In any case, in the event of force majeure, which often happens in the lives of modern users who lead an active lifestyle, when the smartphone screen treacherously goes out at the most inopportune moment, the 18 W fast charge recovery device included in the package will help fix the problem.

cameras

The location of the rear camera on the rear panel was the upper left corner. The main camera is equipped with an up-to-date three-module sensor in today's fashion. In a particular case, it includes three constituent elements placed one above the other:

• the main sensor is characterized by a resolution of 13 megapixels with a pixel parameter of 1.12 microns and has an aperture of f / 2.0;
• wide-angle sensor boasts viewing angles up to 120 degrees and a resolution of 8 megapixels;
• the depth sensor for taking pictures with the presence of the background blur effect has a resolution of 5 megapixels.

The main camera is traditionally equipped with an LED flash, capable of operating in panorama and high dynamic range modes, and recording videos in 1080p@30 format.

An additional (selfie) camera, located in the cutout on the front panel, has a 16 megapixel sensor at its disposal. The front camera supports HDR and records video in 1080p@30fps mode.

Network and interfaces

In the equipment of the gadget, the manufacturer included a hybrid tray for Nano-format SIM cards in the amount of two copies. Their work is organized in dual stand-by mode. If one of the available slots for a memory card is used, the owner will be able to use only one phone card.

Like all modern smartphones, Lenovo K10 Plus implements a wireless Internet connection. As such, Wi-Fi standard 802.11 b / g / n is used. The present Wi-Fi Direct will facilitate direct communication between the real telephone device and other electronic gadgets.

To transfer information from one device to another at a short distance, Bluetooth version 5 will help.

Information about where the object is located on the globe at the current time will be provided by the GPS system (satellite navigator A-GPS).

One of the options for organizing leisure time with the new device can be listening to musical compositions through an FM radio.

Sound

The device implements hands-free mode.

There is a 3.5 mm jack that allows you to connect headphones.

The Dolby Atmos sound 3D sound technology used in the device will help make it more realistic and create a three-dimensional sound image.

Additional features

In order to ensure the security of the information stored in the smartphone, a fingerprint sensor is used, which restricts access to applications and files of the device. Having recognized the owner by fingerprint, the device responds with an instant unlock. Given the fact that an IPS matrix is ​​used for the display, it is not possible to install a fingerprint recognition sensor on the screen, so the fingerprint sensor can be found in the central part of the rear surface of the gadget.

Also, the surveillance equipment includes an accelerometer familiar to modern smartphones, thanks to which the turns of the telephone structure in space are tracked, which is important for mobile gamers who are fond of active games.

There is also an actual proximity sensor, the essence of which is that when the device approaches the auditory opening, its screen automatically turns off. Thanks to this device, accidental pressing of the ear or cheek on the display keys is excluded, and the phone's charge is also saved. Such advantages allow us to judge that talking on the phone will be as comfortable and economical as possible.

Price

According to available information, the model goes on sale in the Indian market at an initial price of $155. As for other sales markets, data is not provided.

Advantages and disadvantages

Based on the foregoing, certain positive and negative aspects of the presented device can be noted.

• display parameters that are comfortable for the implementation of the user's needs with good image display quality;
• characteristics of the main camera and sensor for selfies;
• battery life of a smartphone from a single charge, the presence of a fast charging option;
• affordable cost of the product;
• attractive modern design.

• As a shortcoming, we can note the absence of an NFC module, which is quite popular with the modern consumer as a means of implementing contactless payments.

An overview of the technical characteristics of the Lenovo K10 Plus helps to form an initial opinion about the new product from Lenovo. Potential consumers are attracted by such features of the new model as a large display, a rear camera with three sensors, a 4050 mAh battery device that supports fast charging technology, combined with the affordability of the phone.
