In December 2018, Lenovo had launched the Lenovo Z5 Pro GT as the world’s first Snapdragon 855 SoC powered phone. In April, it had debuted the Lenovo Z6 Pro as its second phone fueled by the same chipset. Today, Lenovo Group VP Chang Cheng has confirmed that the company will be holding a launch event on May 22 to announce a new smartphone. There is a possibility that it may unveil the Lenovo Z6 or K6 Note (2019) smartphone.
Cheng’s latest Weibo post reads “See you on May 22” which suggests that Lenovo will be holding a launch event on the said date. In the comments section of the same post, Cheng has confirmed multiple times that the company will be unleashing a new phone. Also, it appears that it will be a non-gaming phone.
Now that Lenovo has already launch a flagship phone, it could be gearing up to announce budget-friendly smartphones. Recent reports have revealed information about two Lenovo smartphones. The first one is L38111 Lenovo phone that has been approved by TENAA. Its TENAA listing carries its full specifications along with its images. It is speculated that this phone could be arriving in the market as Lenovo K6 Note (2019).
The other phone that is expected to go official on May 22 is Lenovo 78121 that was recently spotted on 3C certification site. The 3C listing only confirmed that it will be arriving with support for 18W rapid charging. Lenovo’s Z-series phones from last year have model numbers starting with “L78.” Hence, it is believed that the L78121 could be an upcoming Z-series phone with mid-range specs. Probably, it could be Lenovo Z6 smartphone. It will be arriving as a successor for the Snapdragon 636 powered Lenovo Z5 from 2018 that is equipped with 15W fast charging.
The purported Lenovo K6 Note (2019) will be arriving with a 6.3-inch IPS LCD panel with waterdrop notch. It will offer full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2340 pixels. The smartphone will be fueled by 2.2 GHz octa-core processor and it will be running on the latest Android 9 Pie OS. A 3,930mAh (minimum capacity) battery is present the smartphone.
For photography, the L38111 phone features 16-megapixel dual camera and a front-facing snapper of 8-megapixel. The other features of the smartphone include up to 6 GB of RAM, maximum native storage of 128 GB, microSD card slot and rear-mounted fingerprint scanner.
Lenovo is known for announcing multiple phones through its launch event. Hence, there is a possibility that both phones may go official through the May 22 event.
