Lenovo To Launch S5 Pro on October 18

Lenovo is gearing up for a major launch event later this month. The Chinese manufacturer is planning to unveil the successor to its Lenovo S5– Lenovo S5 Pro- at a special event in Beijing on October 18.

Lenovo confirmed the launch of its upcoming smartphone S5 Pro via a poster on Weibo. Interestingly, the poster shared by the company apart from confirming the launch date also indicates that the phone would come with two cameras in the front.

Lenovo S5 features a dual rear camera setup. S5 Pro, by comparison, is likely to feature better specifications. And so, it is expected to come with a dual camera setup at the back and in the front.

However, a poster shared by the company earlier this month indicated that its upcoming smartphone could sport four cameras at the rear side of the phone with an LED flash, all arranged in a square format. The poster shared by company also indicated that the camera will be powered by artificial intelligence (AI).

Interestingly, there is no information available on the specifications of Lenovo S5 Pro. But what we can say with certainly is that the Lenovo’s upcoming smartphone will feature better specifications than its predecessor. For reference, Lenovo S5 is powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 processor and it is available in two RAM variants- 3GB RAM and 4GB RAM with up to 128GB internal storage. It comes with a 5.7-inch full HD display and runs on Android 8.0 Oreo-based ZUI 4.0. In terms of camera, S5 comes with a 13MP + 13MP dual rear camera setup and a 16MP shooter in the front. The phone is backed by a 3,000mAh battery.

In terms of availability, Lenovo S5 is available in three memory variants-3GB RAM + 32GB storage variant, which is priced at 999 Yuan (Rs 10,700 approximately), 3GB RAM + 64GB memory variant, which is priced at 1,199 Yuan (Rs 12,800 approximately), and 4GB RAM + 128GB memory variant, which is priced at 1,499 Yuan (Rs 16,000 approximately).

The Chinese manufacturer is yet to launch Lenovo S5 in India. So, it remains to be seen if S5 Pro will make its way to India. Notably, S5 Pro is not the only smartphone expected from the company. Word is that Lenovo could also launch Z5 Pro later this month. – India Today
