Lenovo A606 Review
Score: 55.6 / 100
Lenovo A606 is a good phone, which counts with a quite big 5" multi-touch screen, an extremely fast 1300 MHz Quad-Core processing unit, and 2 cameras, an 8 megapixels back camera and a 2 mega-pixels front facing camera.
Lenovo didn't seem to put much effort to reduce weight in this 6 ounces cellphone. The Lenovo A606 is extremely thin and stilized, with a thickness of just 0.36 inches. Even though the Lenovo A606 only has 5.57 inches long and 2.88 inches wide, it still manages to pack a 5" screen. Lenovo offers this phone in 2 color options: black and white.
Lenovo equipped this phone with an average 5" screen, and a resolution of 854 x 480 , which makes all pictures and movies look quite vivid. Its screen uses IPS LCD capacitive technology, and allows multi-touch gestures.
The Lenovo A606 comes with a MediaTek MT6582M chip, holding an extremely powerful 1.3 gigahertz Quad-Core processor with only 1 GB of RAM which is a little disappointing for a device of this level. Graphic intensive games and apps generally uses lots of CPU cycles, so the Lenovo A606 has an extra 416 MHz ARM Mali-400 MP2 GPU to take care of them, leaving the CPU free for other tasks. The Lenovo A606 comes with aquite big 8 GB internal memory and a slot for an external memory card, allowing the user to store a couple hundred apps and games without running out of space.
The Lenovo A606 counts with Wi-Fi capability (and it can share it with other devices as a mobile hotspot), HSPA+ (4G) internet connection, which is not as fast as LTE or LTE-A 4G networks and 3G fast connectivity, using HSDPA, HSUPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. This phone works with a SIM card to connect to GSM networks.
This cellphone has two cameras, an 8 mega-pixels back facing camera and a 2 megapixels front camera. The camera also includes auto-focus.
The Lenovo A606 features a medium sized 2000 mAh Li-Polymer replaceable battery providing this device with a not very long battery life.
The Lenovo A606 also features a couple of cool characteristics such as Bluetooth (enables communication with other phones, computers and accessories), GPS Navigation and FM Radio, and lots of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.
This cellphone costs 249 dollars, expensive for this kind of phone. If you want a cellphone majorly for internet broswing and social networks or want a gaming cellphone, you will probably be very happy with it.
