64GB storage model of the Lenovo Z5 Aurora will be available for purchase from
July 26 for 1,399 Yuan (US$ 206), similar to the pricing of other

There’s a dual camera setup at the back of the phone

It runs on Android Oreo operating system out of the

such as automatic call answer through gestures.
