New Lenovo Vibe Z2 Pro to sport a Quad HD screen, might be an LG G3 rival

Not to be outdone by LG, Samsung and HTC, Lenovo is seemingly preparing the release of its own Android smartphone with a Quad HD (1,440 x 2,560) display. According to a report from China, the upcoming handset is called Lenovo Vibe Z2 Pro, and it’s already been pictured in the wild.

Reportedly, the Quad HD screen of the Vibe Z2 Pro measures 6 inches. Other features should include a 7.7mm-thin metal body, a quad-core 2.5GHz Snapdragon 801 processor, 16MP rear camera with OIS, NFC, and a 4,000 mAh battery. It certainly looks like this could give LG’s G3 a run for its money - at least in China, where Lenovo concentrates its smartphone business.

It’s not clear when the Lenovo Vibe Z2 Pro is supposed to be announced, but we hope to find out more about this soon.

While Lenovo smartphones are a rare sight in North America and Europe, the company managed to become one of the world’s largest handset vendors just by selling devices in Asia (mainly in China). With the acquisition of Motorola Mobility, the company will be able to go global - but this doesn’t mean it’s going to overlook its own-branded handsets (as this report about the Vibe Z2 Pro is proving).
