Lenovo Unveils Vibe Shot, A7000, and Pocket Projector

Lenovo, one of the top smartphone manufacturers in the world, unveiled three new mobile devices at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain. The new devices, Lenovo says, are designed to capture and share life’s moments while on the go. Lenovo opened the show with its first 2-in-1 camera smartphone. The Lenovo Vibe Shot, as it is called, is a smartphone for photography enthusiasts.

A crossover device, the Vibe Shot carries a 16-megapixel rear-facing camera that features a six-piece modular lens. It has a full-frame 16:9 low-light sensor, perfect for shooting images in the dark.

The Vibe Shot sports a 5-inch FHD display and it is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon octa-core processor, with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of onboard storage. Other features include a 128GB expandable storage, LTE support, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi capabilities, and a 2,900mAh battery. Additionally, the phone runs Android 5.0 Lollipop.

The second device on Lenovo’s sleeve is the A7000 smartphone, the first ever to be outfitted with Dolby Atmos sound technology. This phone has a phablet-like 5.5-inch display with wide viewing angles. As a middle range device, Lenovo compensates the specs with a MediaTek True8Core processor, a 2GB RAM, 8GB internal storage, an 8-megapixel front camera, 5-megapixel front camera, a 2,900mAh camera, and LTE support. The Lenovo A7000 also runs Android 5.0 Lollipop under Lenovo’s VIBE UI.

Finally, Lenovo announced a brilliant device for geeks. The Pocket Projector is an ingenious mini projector for media lovers, able to project content from a compatible Android device. This means that you can do business on the go; the projector supersizes movies, photos, and business presentations by projecting them on any wall or surface.

The Pocket Projector has 50-lumens, a 16:10, 4:3 aspect ratio, microSD and microUSB support, DNLA and Miracast capability, 2 speakers, a G-sensor, and up to 2.5 hours of battery life. Lenovo will launch the Vibe Shot in June, selling it at around $349. The Lenovo A7000 arrives in March with a $169 price tag. Meanwhile, the nifty Pocket Projector will hit stores in May. The price starts at $249.
