Lenovo Z5 Pro with sliding-camera to launch on November 1
What's the story
Lenovo has confirmed that it will launch its latest flagship, the Lenovo Z5 Pro, on November 1 in China. So far, several leaks and official teasers have confirmed an all-screen bezel-less design and a manual sliding camera on the upcoming flagship - similar to what we have seen on the newly launched Xiaomi Mi Mix 3. Here's everything we know about Lenovo Z5 Pro.
Design & Display
Lenovo Z5 Pro: At a glance
As per previous teasers and leaks, the Lenovo Z5 Pro will feature a notch-free all-screen design. Notably, Lenovo VP Cheng has touted a near-100% screen-to-body ratio, but it seems like a stretch considering the slim bottom bezel on the phone. Further, the Z5 Pro will have a Mi Mix 3-like sliding camera and is said to feature an in-display fingerprint sensor.
Camera
Lenovo Z5 Pro will feature a sliding front camera
While we don't have details about Z5 Pro's rear camera, a recent hands-on video of the phone has given away details of its front camera. Lenovo has opted for a sliding front camera which will operate manually - much like Mi Mix 3's camera. Further, as seen in the hands-on video, the front camera appears to be a dual-lens setup with selfie flash module.
Internals
Under the hood
While much isn't known about Z5 Pro's specs, we expect the phone to pack top-end internals. As a flagship smartphone with the latest design and innovation, the Lenovo Z5 should be powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 processor. Further, looking at present-day high-end smartphones, the upcoming Lenovo flagship should come with up to 8GB RAM and up to 256GB of internal storage.
