Lenovo Vibe S1 Lite

The Lenovo Vibe S1 Lite is a 5-inch phone sporting a Full HD IPS LCD display. This phone comes in two colour variants - white and blue with a matte finish. The metal frame gives it a premium touch. Its dimensions stand as 145x71x8.55 mm and weighs 129 grams, which is slightly lighter than the Lenovo Vibe S1.

It features a 13-megapixel rear camera with dual-tone LED Flash. The camera boasts of PDAF (Phase Detection Autofocus) and BSI (Backside Illumination) sensor. This means you get quick focusing and relatively superior low-light performance. The phone comes with an 8-megapixel front-facing snapper with an LED flash.

The phone is powered by MediaTek's octa-core MT6753 chipset clocked at 1.3 GHz. The graphics are taken care of by the Mali-T720 GPU. The phone has 2 GB RAM and 16 GB internal storage. The latter can be expanded by another 128 GB via a microSD card. However since it's a hybrid slot, you can either use it for the microSD card or a second SIM.

The phone packs in a 2,700 mAh non-removable battery which can keep the phone up and running for a day. Connectivity options include Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0, GPS/A-GPS, FM, microUSB 2.0 port, and 4G LTE.

The Vibe S1 Lite runs Android 5.1 Lollipop with Lenovo's Vibe UI on top. The phone has extensive theme support. Lenovo's Gauss wallpaper feature offers three levels of a blur so that the icons are distinct. Vibe UI also lets you switch between various folders with a slide up and down gesture. The Notification Center offers elaborate customization options. Even the call answering interface can also be personalised.

To catch-up with Samsung and Apple's payment services, Lenovo has also introduced its Wallet. However, this feature is only supported in few countries.
