The Lenovo Z5 could launch today. The capable Android smartphone promises several innovative features and capable hardware at an attractive price.

The Lenovo Z5 smartphone was launched in China earlier this year. The mid-range Android smartphone which promised flagship-grade performance at an attractive price could launch today.

Lenovo launched the Lenovo Z5, the smartphone with a long list of innovative features, in June this year. The smartphone which was hereto restricted to the Chinese market could arrive in India today. The Chinese smartphone and electronics company recently sent out media invitations. Going by the tagline of the invitation, we expect the Chinese brand to launch the successor to the K8 Note at the event.

The Lenovo Z5 achieved great popularity among smartphone buyers in China. The company is rumored to be working on a “Pro” variant of the Lenovo Z5, which will have upgraded cameras and superior hardware and specifications. But for now, the company could launch the standard variant, which recently received a substantial price cut. The Lenovo smartphone is already available in China. Hence, we know all the specifications and features of the handset. Still, Lenovo could confirm critical aspects such as availability and exact Indian price of the Z5 at the launch today.

The Lenovo Z5 will sell exclusively on Flipkart. The Indian eCommerce platform has set up a landing page for the Lenovo smartphone.

The launch will take place in New Delhi. The event should begin at 4 PM. The launch event could be broadcast on multiple Social Media websites.
