Lenovo K9, A5 Key Features

The Lenovo A5 is being marketed as “the budget champion” by Lenovo. Its main selling point is its 4000mAh large-capacity battery that provides long battery life. It sports a 5.45-inch full screen IPS LCD display with 720 x 1440 HD+ resolution and an 18:9 aspect ratio. Powering the Lenovo A5 is a MediaTek MT6739 quad-core SoC clocked at 1.5 GHz with a PowerVR GE8100 GPU. When it comes to optics, the Lenovo A5 is more or less on par with most of its rivals. It features a 13MP rear camera and an 8MP selfie camera with a Soft Light beauty mode. Similar to most entry-level Android smartphones, the A5 offers a dedicated microSD card slot for further expansion up to 256GB.

While the Lenovo A5 focuses on battery life, the K9 is more of a camera-centric budget Android smartphone with dual front and rear cameras. The smartphone is equipped with a 13MP + 5MP dual-camera setup on both sides. In terms of design, the K9 boasts a double-layered glass body that is polished through 8 different processes. Under the hood, Lenovo K9 runs on a MediaTek Helio P22 12nm octa-core processor clocked at 2.0 GHz with a PowerVR GE8320 GPU. The smartphone’s full screen display measures 5.7-inches diagonally and offers the same 720 x 1440 HD+ resolution as the A5. It also comes with a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor, 3000mAh capacity battery, and a USB Type-C port.
