The features of the upcoming Lenovo ZUK Edge is being consistently teased by Lenovo on Weibo. New details suggest that the Lenovo ZUK Edge will be world’s first smartphone to feature under glass Home button enabled with features like fingerprint reader and support for multiple gestures.

Lenovo Group Vice President has now confirmed that ZUK Edge will feature an under-glass U-Touch Home button. The U-Touch Home button will not only support usual features like press & fingerprint scanning, but also add new gesture support.

Through a sliding gesture, users will be able to switch between tasks. This new information on the invisible Home button contradicts the Lenovo ZUK Edge leaked photos that have clearly revealed that it sports a rectangular shaped physical Home button below the display.  It is likely that a rectangular shaped Home button may be positioned below the display but may be integrated under the front glass.

In the previous week, Lenovo had teased on its Weibo account that the ZUK Edge would be coming with a screen-to-body ratio of 86.4 percent. The company had also announced that would be powered by Snapdragon 821 chipset.

The ZUK Edge smartphone is scheduled to be unveiled on Dec. 20. Leaked photos and initial rumors indicate that it is a high-end flagship phone with a higher screen-to-body ratio.

In this morning, Lenovo confirmed through its Weibo account that the ZUK Edge will deliver a screen-to-body ratio of 86.4 percent. It is less than the 91.3 percent screen-to-body ratio that Xiaomi has been marketing for its concept phone, the Xiaomi Mi Mix.

It is interesting to note that GSM Arena’s review on Mi Mix revealed that its actual screen-to-body is ratio is around 84.7 percent. The publication calculated the ratio by dividing the surface area of the phone by the surface area of its screen.

Has Lenovo ZUK Edge managed to pip Xiaomi Mi Mix over screen-to-body ratio? It can be only confirmed after the ZUK Edge release date.

The leaked renders of the ZUK Edge smartphone suggest that’s its large display is surrounded by super slim bezels. To be precise, even the top and bottom bezels are quite thin. It features a rectangular Home button below the display that houses the fingerprint reader.

Ahead of its December 20 launch, yet another render of the Lenovo ZUK Edge has leaked revealing both the front and rear views of the sleek device. The image is that of the white-colored variant of the ZUK Edge. The device is likely to come in white and all black variants.

The ZUK Edge, it could be recalled, was initially thought to be unveiled on December 7 but that didn’t happen and now a new poster pointing at a December 20 launch was spotted online. The Edge looks very much like the Xiaomi Mi Mix and could be termed Lenovo’s response to Xiaomi’s concept phone. It utilizes a design that sees the display occupying almost the entire screen. There are also ultra-narrow bezels at the sides.

The Lenovo ZUK Edge smartphone should have been launched on December 7 as teased but quite surprisingly Lenovo went mute about the device. Now another set of renders of the device have leaked online showing once again the front view of the white colored variant, this time around while being charged.

The renders are similar to the previous ones which had featured in earlier leaks. The front physical home button still lies under the display and that is also rumored to have embedded under it a non-aperture fingerprint sensor. We are still short of renders of the back view of the device but the Edge’s appearance on TENAA did give us a glimpse of that.

The Lenovo ZUK Edge should launch any moment from now considering December 7 has come and gone. Whenever it does launch, the device will likely feature a 5.5-inch 1080p display and powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 821 processor backed by 4GB of RAM. There will also be 64GB of internal storage as well as 3,000mAh built-in battery with fast charging support onboard the flagship. In addition, the device is touted to come with USB Type-C interface, an 8MP front camera, 13MP rear camera and many other cool features.

Lenovo VP has been the source of several official teasers concerning the ZUK Edge all along. The VP today shared yet another teaser containing the black variant that again reveals the Lenovo ZUK Edge will officially go on sale starting from Wednesday, December 7, 2016, on Jingdong (JD.com). He had earlier shared a similar teaser containing the white version.

From all indications, there won’t be an official press conference where the ZUK Edge would be unveiled but rather the sleek device would be released directly via e-commerce website Jingdong in China. There is no price tag attached to the device just yet but it is believed that when it is launched, a price tag will be ascribed to it. One unique thing to note from the teased image announcing the device is that the black version looks like the Galaxy Note 7 in design and sleek looks. That isn’t very obvious, though.

Earlier today, Lenovo‘s vice-President released stunning images of the black variant of the ZUK Edge on Weibo. Again, images of the white colored version of the Edge have also leaked online showing the device without the protective casing that prevented us from seeing the rear aspect properly on the black version.

Indeed the device bears semblance with the Xiaomi Mix with the display occupying almost 90% of the entire screen. The device comes with a similar concept design with very thin bezels at the sides. Whatever is being used at the front like the home button cum fingerprint scanner is pushed to both the upper and lower extremes. But for little differences, the design is said to resemble the Lenovo ZUK Z2 Pro also in looks.

From the enders, the ZUK Edge doesn’t seem to have a curved display but a flat one. The device has been revealed by Lenovo’s VP as launching sometime next week. We are still waiting for official words on the exact date for the launch.

Lenovo‘s ZUK Edge flagship is one of the devices currently making waves even before they are released. The device wasa recently spotted on AnTuTu where it was revealed to have the Snapdragon 821 chip onboard. Images of the sleek and stunning looking device had appeared online before now, revealing its unique design. Again, renders of the device has leaked right from the doorstep of Lenovo’s vice-President on Weibo.

The images further reveal the ZUK Edge’s design captured from both the front and back sides of the device. The most stunning feature should be the ultra thin bezels at the sides of the display which make the device looks like the Xiaomi Mi Mix concept phone. That is because the device is composed almost entirely of the display at the front as a result of the tiny bezels. There is a physical home button up front, though, which also functions as a fingerprint sensor. The flagship device also has a front camera at the top.

There is no doubt this is the real device as the paper box casing bears the name of the device. The box casing comes in the same black color as the device but we had earlier seen the white colored variant. The ZUK Edge also seem to come with a protective casing which is likely because of the large display that may be prone to damage easily.

The vice-President of Lenovo Group, apart from gifting us these stunning renders, also hinted that the device would be officially released next week. The ZUK Edge comes packing a 2.35GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 821 chip with Adreno 530 GPU, and back by 6GB of RAM. There is also 64GB of internal storage on the device that would run on Android 7.0 Nougat out-of-the-box.

Further, the device is said to feature a 5.5-inch display with Full HD resolution (1980 x 1080 pixels) and at the rear there is a 13MP camera. While there is an 8MP front-facing camera.
