Thoughts on The Lenovo K3 Note

http://www.gearbest.com/cell-phones/pp_180347.html

I currently have a galaxy s4 but this phones specs look as good if not better then my s4
Main thing I like is the bigger screen.

Idk if the CPU in it would be any better then the snapdragon in my galaxy s4.

Seems cheap though for a new device.

Do you think it would be an upgrade from my current galaxy s4?

  • The camera won't be as good and the screen isn't AMOLED.

    Because Lenovo devices are generally sold to the chinese consumer and not intended to be sold outside of china, it won't have Google Play. It's also confirmed by the store representative (see Customer Questions & Answers). you will need to root the phone, install a custom recovery and then flash your own GAPPS.

    The Octa-core processor is pretty powerful, however it's prone to heat throttling so performance will suffer after prolonged use.

      This person has google play on it as well as a YouTube video I just watched.
      Also the gearbox website even says it has google play.

      • The people selling it, say there is no 'Google Play' on it.

          How do you explain this from the same webpage? or the video which clearly has google play app on home screen?

        • @holden93:
          Some are being shipped with Play, some without.
          I've ordered one from someone who says they'll ensure it's on there.
          And tbh, even if it's not, it's a relatively straightforward process to get it on there. I'll probably be mucking about with it anyway as a new Lenovo ROM for it came out last weeek and I doubt mine will ship with that already on.
