With a big screen, meaty battery and powerful processor, the A7000 ticks all the right boxes for a smartphone. This 5.5-inch phablet is pretty affordable and has another interesting trick - it’s the world’s first phone to feature Dolby Atmos.The phone has an unassuming design with rounded edges and a matte-finished rear. It is only 8mm thick and weighs 140g. The A7000 is quite possibly one of the most ergonomic budget smartphones with a 5.5-inch screen.
The earpiece, front-facing camera, and ambient light sensor are all above the screen. The primary camera and its dual-LED flash sit in the top left corner of the rear. The speaker grille is towards the right of the rear and is out of the reach of your fingers when holding the phone, thus not blocking any sound. However, sound is somewhat blocked when the phone is placed flat on its rear. The rear cover is removable and underneath it lie the battery, two Micro-SIM card slots and a microSD card slot.
the A7000 uses an octa-core MediaTek MT6752m SoC clocked at 1.5GHz; an entry-level version of the MT6752. This SoC has integrated Mali-T760MP2 graphics.Even though it has 2 gb RAM but the storage capacity is 8GB which can be extended upto 32GB.
The USB OTG feature can also be used to charge other devices, which might come in handy in emergencies.The 5.5-inch IPS LCD screen has a resolution of 720p, which translates to a pixel density of 267ppi. The screen is protected by Asahi’s Dragontrail glass. The saturation levels of the display are a not too high and it looks decently crisp as well.
Performance:
The A7000 is pretty powerful and we really didn’t see it choke or stutter at any point during our time with it. Opening multiple apps wasn’t a problem either. Even the graphically taxing Asphalt 8 ran without dropping frames.With the A7000, Lenovo actually betters that: the 2900mAh battery lasted 10 hours and 58 minutes this time. If used moderately, users should easily be able to get one and a half days’ worth of usage with the A7000, which is really good.
