The company has changed the market game in terms of “value for money” but not in its phone selling strategy. k3 notes Available in limited quantities and can only be purchased through a flash sale. Just because of online availability, customers cannot fully test a new product. In such a situation, the brand image is the only support for the buyer. Luckily, we got to spend a lot of time with the review department. Based on this, we will tell you about this phone and also introduce you to the test results.
Appearance and Design
Most phones in this series have a uniform appearance. Lenovo has also expressed confidence in the same formula that makes this phone leave its mark behind. By the way, the Stanley texture is used on the back panel of the device. If you want something different, buy the black or yellow version instead of the white one.
Android’s three capacitive navigation buttons below the screen are not easy to use. They are difficult to access with one hand, and the icons are gray and not backlit.
The power and volume buttons are located on the right side. The 3.5mm audio jack and micro-USB port are located on the top. The left and bottom are completely empty, with nothing but a microphone hole. The camera lens and dual LED flash are located at the corner of the back. Apart from this, there is also a microphone hole, speaker grille and a large Lenovo logo. The battery is removable and will have to be removed to replace the SIM card. A MicroSD slot is also present for increasing storage capacity.
Gives a good feeling when holding the phone. 150 grams is not that heavy, but whenever you keep the phone in your pocket, you will definitely feel its weight.

Software
Lenovo K3 Note It runs on Android 5.0 operating system, which uses the company’s VibeUI skin. The good news is that Android’s style and functionality haven’t suffered too much. The company has also added several new features and functionality. The main difference is that the icons of all installed applications remain on the main page. There is no app drawer, which most people won’t like. Most Chinese companies are confident in this approach.
Lenovo has provided a lot of pre-installed apps in this phone. The good thing is that most of the pre-installed apps can also be uninstalled. Lenovo K3 note has a safe zone feature that allows you to hide selected apps, files and notifications using a unique lock code. Ultimate Power Saver mode disables all functions except calls and messaging. The company claims this increases wait times by several days. This can be very effective in emergency situations.

performance
We found the Lenovo K3 Note to be very easy and enjoyable to use overall. However, due to the large screen size, using this device with just your thumb is not possible. Apart from this, we did not encounter any other problem. There were no delays even when multitasking. Heavy encoded HD videos play smoothly without any lag.
The benchmark test results show that the K3 Note is a very powerful device. The device scored an impressive 45,616 points in AnTuTu and 20,680 points in the Quadrant test. We were concerned that the graphical results might not be as good due to the high-density screen. But we’re glad the device scored 15fps in GFXBench and 6667 in 3DMark Ice Storm Extreme.
The phone screen is really great. We are very pleased with this device in terms of viewing angles, color reproduction and sharpness. It works well outdoors. The sound from the rear speaker was quite loud. The Dolby Atmos effect was clearly visible on audio, although it was more effective with headphones.
The camera was disappointing in places and pleasing in others. The camera is placed in the corner of the back. Many times while taking photos we find that our fingers end up in front of the lens. For this reason, we had to hold the phone by the edge. The lighting effect was clearly visible in the photographs taken with the camera. Photos taken on rainy days weren’t as good as those taken in full light. When we examined the photo at full size, the lack of detail was clearly visible. Although the pictures looked great on the phone screen. Colors were generally good. Close-up shots turned out better than distance shots.
Voice calls were a bit boring, but that wasn’t a major flaw. The 4G data speed was a great experience. Battery life is good but not impressive. In our video test, it lasted 8 hours and 7 minutes.
our decision
Lenovo has really surprised us with the power and quality of its new devices. The K3 Note is an excellent device in its price range. It’s clear that the golden era of budget smartphones is not over yet. Given the popularity of the large screen, we think most buyers will enjoy buying this phone. We also hope that Lenovo will also release a regular-sized version of this device in the near future.
Before K3 Note Xiaomi Redmi Note 4G (Xiaomi Redmi Note 4G) looks a bit outdated and lags in performance in some cases. you’re a eureka plus (Better than Yu Yureka Plus). The truth is that choosing between Yureka Plus and K3 Note is very difficult. However, the Yureka Plus phone runs on CyanogenOS and Now 1000 rubles cheaper. But we liked this Lenovo product equally. Both devices are available in limited quantities and will only be available through online flash sales, so pick one if you want one. Both are win-win deals.
