Lenovo has so far launched two smartphones under its Lenovo Z6 lineup — Lenovo Z6 Pro flagship smartphone and the Lenovo Z6 Youth Edition, a watered-down variant of the flagship model. Now, the company has another device up its kitty — Lenovo Z6 Pro Explorer Edition.
In a Weibo post from Lenovo’s Vice President Chang Cheng, it has been confirmed that the company has Z6 Pro Explorer Edition, which features support for 5G connectivity. Most of the smartphone manufacturers have launched a 5G variant of their flagship smartphones launched this year.
Samsung launched the Galaxy S10 5G while Huawei has Mate X and Mate 20 X 5G. Xiaomi had earlier launched the Mi MIX 3 5G while OnePlus has recently announced the OnePlus 7 Pro 5G edition for the European market.
The image shared by the company’s VP on Weibo confirms the 5G availability, making it the first 5G smartphone from Lenovo. The image also shows that the phone has a similar color pattern on the back panel as the standard Z6 Pro model. However, it seems that the Explorer Edition could come with a transparent back panel, similar to the Explorer Edition from Xiaomi.
Apart from the change in the material of the body and support for 5G connectivity, everything else in terms of specifications is expected to be the same as the standard version. It could come with a 6.3-inch AMOLED display with Full HD+ screen resolution of 1080 x 2340 pixels, waterdrop notch, and an aspect ratio of 19.5:9.
The phone will come packed with the sixth-generation in-display fingerprint reader. It is powered by Qualcomm’s 7nm Snapdragon 855 chipset clocked at 2.84GHz. There’s also a Coldfront liquid cooling technology regulates the internal temperature of the device.
The smartphone’s variants based on the memory configuration are not yet known. It features 48 MP + 16 MP + 8 MP + 2 MP camera sensors on the back with AI Hyper Video feature. On the front side, the smartphone comes with a 32 MP snapper. The ZUI 11 based Android 9 Pie OS comes pre-loaded and the phone is fueled by a 4,000mAh battery that carries support for 18W fast charging.
