The Lenovo ThinkPhone FeaturesÂ
According to the leaked specifications, the handset will comprise a Qualcomm Snapdragon VIII Plus Gen-1 chip with 8GB or 12GB RAM. The Motorola-made smartphone comes with users to choose from available storage, ranging from 128GB to 512 GB. ThinkPhone will be available in carbon black with a particular red customizable key that can perform varying tasks.
The ThinkPhone even has the traditional ThinkPad font. While it is not the latest Snapdragon VIII Gen-2 flagship chipset, Oppo, Xiaomi, and Honor have been using the same chip in smartphones since May 2022. In addition to the 32MG front-facing camera, the smartphone comprises a triple camera with a 50MP ultrawide, 13MP, and 2MP depth sensor.
Users will be able to get Motorola-made smartphones in almost every color as long as it is carbon black, which is unlike regular black phones. Starters will find a red customizable key that can perform various tasks in the Walkie Talkie app in Microsoft Teams.
The black panel is lightweight aramid fiber – stronger than steel, whereas the phone has aircraft-grade aluminum. The front has a Gorilla Glass Victus clad, and the back side comprises a specific ThinkPhone logo.
Since ThinkPhone has MIL-STD 810H & IP68 certifications, it would survive a drop of up to 1.25 meters alongside a swim of up to 1.5m for half an hour. The three times fast 5,000mAh battery supports 15w wireless charging alongside 68w wired charging. Customers will receive the mobile phone box with the wired charger.
The Lenovo ThinkPhone boasts a 50MP primary camera f/1.8 and has OIS and PDAF. It has pixel-bins 4-to-1m leading to 2.0μm pixels. Also, the camera is 13MP f/2.2 ultrawide and macro vision. The opposite end has a 32-megapixel self-camera and autofocus.
