Slim Versatile Smartphones

The Lenovo Vibe X2 Has a Thin Body and High-Resolution Display

— September 6, 2014 — Tech
The Lenovo Vibe X2 is a smartphone, perhaps most noted for its high-resolution display, that offers excellent features at a price that isn't too expensive but isn't so cheap that you begin questioning the quality of the product.

The Vibe X2 has a 5-inch screen with a high-quality 1,920 x 1,080 resolution, making for a sharp 441 pixels per inch. The device is powered by Android 4.4 KitKat and is enhanced by Lenovo's Vibe user interface. The interface is easy to use, quick and responsive while the display is noticeably sharp and bright. The phone is just 7.27 mm thin.

The Lenovo Vibe X2 will be launched in China this month, and will eventually be made available in other regions -- as yet undisclosed -- in October. It will be available for just $400.
