Lenovo A6000

“The Lenovo offers much more than one would expect from a device at this price - a good screen, brand, performance, plenty of connectivity, and long battery life. Its camera output isn't the best but isn't worst as well. Thus it is worth every hassle that the flash sale is known for (it is only available via flash sales held every Wednesday). Thus a big thumbs up for Lenovo A6000. Go for it.”

“We believe Lenovo has pulled out all the stops to assemble an impressive budget smartphone. The A6000 succeeds in many aspects and we are particularly pleased with its battery life, Dolby speakers, future-proofing in the form of a 64-bit processor, and support for 4G networks. This is not to say the A6000 is without flaws, the display could have had protective glass and the cameras could have been better.”

“Does 4G make this phone worth it? In my opinion, no. The real benefit of 4G connectivity is in high-speed data usage, which translates to faster browsing, faster YouTube videos, and so on. However, the A6000’s poor performance as a phone negates the benefits of 4G connectivity. What’s the point of faster internet if your browser is going to crash? What’s the point of loading pages fast if the keyboard doesn’t pop up quickly enough to type what you want?Add to this, the A6000 is available only through Flipkart in the annoying flash sale model introduced by Xiaomi, where you have to register in advance and be super-fast in buying it. Lenovo has only released the phone in batches of 20,000, while accepting far more registrations. This phone isn’t worth jumping through all those hoops for.The A6000, while promising on paper, simply does not live up to its potential. We’d give this one a miss.”

“The standout feature of Lenovo A6000 is its ability to support 4G networks in India. The build quality and the performance also deserve a mention especially after considering its price tag. The Snapdragon quad-core processor, a capable GPU and 1GB of RAM hold things together very well and you can’t ask more from a mid-range smartphone.Lenovo A6000’s camera performs better than most of the smartphones in the similar price category. The software is one aspect where things can get better, but there’s nothing to worry as it can be improved with timely firmware upgrades and patches.”
