If you are looking for a phone that has decent specs and performance, it is always worth checking out some older models since they are still pretty good but the prices have dropped significantly. We just came across the Lenovo ZUK Z1 that we have reviewed last year. Now Everbuying.net has it on sale and you can get even a better discount if you use our coupon code that you will find at the end of the article.

The ZUK Z1 is a pretty large (or just a normal phone according to today’s standards) phone due to its 5.5″ 1080p display. The highlights on the front are a super fast and accurate fingerprint sensor and a highly customisable notification LED light.

The backplate is made of matt plastic and it is nice to the touch. As far as optics, there is a 13MP Sony camera, which is also optically stabilised and it has a dual LED flash.

When it comes to the processing power, the ZUK Z1 uses a quad-core Snapdragon 801 with the 2.5Ghz clock speeds, 3GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage as a base model. Some may say Snapdragon 801 is already an old chip and yes, it has already shown its age due to the mainstream transition to the 64-bit chips. However, this is still a capable processor that can easily handle everyday tasks and even some of the 3D games. During our testing at the time of the review, Asphalt 8 ran like a champ even on the highest graphics settings.

In addition, we still remember the ZUK Z1 as one of the fastest phones we’ve ever tested when it comes to the daily use. Opening/closing apps, scrolling through the menus is just blazing fast.

Lastly, the phone is powered by a beefy 4100mAh battery. As it has been already revealed by our full review, you can reach almost 7 hours of screen-on time, which is a fantastic result.

We sure understand that the Lenovo ZUK Z1 is an old model already but given the respectable specs sheet, super-fast daily performance and the recent price drops, the phone is a pretty good deal. In fact, Everbuying.net has provided us with a significant discount code and thus you can get this phone for just 173.99$. Just for comparison, ZUK Z1 used to cost over $300 at the time of our review last year.
