New Lenovo phone packs features for shutterbugs


MANILA -- Lenovo launched on Monday the Vibe Z2 Pro, the latest member of its flagship smartphone line, which offers a range of professional photography features.

“The new Vibe Z2 Pro proves that Lenovo’s smartphone portfolio is growing. The Vibe Z2 Pro is perfect for tech-savvy consumers who demand best-in-class entertainment and ability to run sophisticated apps,” Lenovo Philippines country general manager Michael Ngan said in a statement.

According to the global tech giant, the Vibe Z2 Pro differs from other smartphones as its 16MP rear camera uses a 16:9 BSI sensor that captures widescreen photos at full resolution. It also supports 4K resolution and high-speed 120fps recordings.

Moreover, the Enhanced 6 element lens boosts the already-strong low-light shooting performance of the BSI sensor. Shutterbugs will also appreciate Zero Shutter Lag, manual shooting settings and a HDR-ready custom SNAPit camera app.

The Vibe Z2 Pro’s IPS panel packs 2,560 x 1,440 pixels and its 490ppi screen density is one of the highest among existing premium smartphones.

Rated at 500 nits maximum brightness output, the display is easily viewable outdoors coupled with richer colors and wide viewing angles. In addition, with 83.5% of the usable screen estate, users can view more content, thanks to an ultra-narrow frame design.

Also available is a suite of custom Lenovo DOit apps such as SHAREit, SYNCit and SEEit Gallery.

SHAREit is a hassle-free way to share conten in a wireless manner; SYNCit backs up user’s contacts and other data to the cloud; while SEEit Gallery is an intuitive photo management tool featuring one-touch editing capability.

Powered by a 2.5GHz, Snapdragon 801 processor, the company said it can load and run apps quicker than other chips and users can count on its quad-core architecture and 3GB of RAM for a seamless multitasking experience.

The high-capacity battery and VIBE Z2 Pro’s advanced energy-saving features also ensure long hours of use.

For frequent travelers, dual SIM support with 4G compatibility makes international roaming a breeze.

The Lenovo Vibe Z2 is priced at P29,999.
