The Chinese semiconductor company Unisoc
introduced a new smartphone today, called Lenovo A7. The device is yet to
appear on any official website, but some specs were posted on the Twitter page
of the chip maker.
The Lenovo A7 is obviously an entry-level
handset with a waterdrop screen, two cameras and an octa-core CPU. The newly
released #LenovoA7 smartphone is powered by UNISOC #SC9863A Octa-core chipset
platform.
The A7 comes with a 6.09-inch waterdrop
display, 4000 mAh high-capacity removable battery with up to 416-hour standby
time, a 13MP + 2MP dual rear camera and a 5MP front camera.
The chipset is Unisoc SC9863A which has
eight Cortex-A55 units - one cluster reaches 1.6 GHz, the rest go up to 1.2
GHz. It can support resolutions up to Full HD+ (2160 x 1080), but the Lenovo A7
is likely settling for a 720p display. All we know is the panel is 6.09” with a
waterdrop cutout for the 5 MP selfie camera.
In other specs, the battery is 4,000 mAh
and is removable - a proper rarity these days. The panel comes off, it still stays
with a fingerprint scanner and two cutouts for the 13 MP + 2 MP dual camera and
a single LED flash. We are yet to learn more about this device, including
availability or markets, but it is highly unlikely to be more than $100.
