Leaked photo shows mini version of Lenovo K920 phablet; nothing mini about the phone's specs

The other day, we told you about the Lenovo K920 phablet. The manufacturer introduced this model at an event in June, and is launching the device on August 5th. Despite recent reports that mini versions of flagship phones are facing slowing demand, it appears that Lenovo is prepping a mini version of the K920.

With a 5.5 inch screen, it is hard to see how this could be called a mini handset. The full-sized K920 is a half inch larger at 6 inches. Unlike the 1440 x 2560 QHD resolution on the latter, we expect a 1080 x 1920 resolution screen on the mini. The Lenovo K920 mini is expected to have a metal body, like the full-sized model. Under the hood we could find a quad-core Snapdragon 801 CPU with 2GB of RAM and 16GB of native storage. This is a mini? For many manufacturers, this would represent a current full-sized flagship phone.

By the way, the camera adorning the rear is believed to be 13MP with a 5MP front-facing shooter included. The only thing mini about this model is the price, which is expected to be the equivalent of $323 USD.


Thanks for the tip!
