(It is also very economical in operation). Mobile phone Lenovo A8 A806 - "A real monster for ridiculous money! (Also very economical in operation)" The telephone module has two different versions

Lenovo A806 (Lenovo A808t) is a powerful smartphone from Lenovo manufactured in 2014, which, thanks to its technical characteristics, will allow you to surf the Internet on a large high-quality screen with particular ease and play modern games without any problems. In addition, the device has a good sound of the main speaker and a high-quality camera with a resolution of 13 MP.

Equipment

Complete with Lenovo A806 (Lenovo A808t) are: charger, microUSB cable, rechargeable battery and a set of documentation.

Specifications

The device runs on a powerful 8-core MTK 6592 processor with a clock frequency of 1.8 GHz. The device has 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB of built-in. There is also a slot for memory cards up to 32 GB.

Lenovo A806 screen has a diagonal of 5 inches with a resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels. The touch screen supports up to five simultaneous touches.

The telephone module has two different versions:

  • Lenovo A808t designed for the domestic market of China and beyond its borders, operation is possible only in GSM networks
  • Lenovo A806- the device for the international market and supports work in networks GSM, WCDMA and LTE.

The dimensions of the device are 140.5 x 70.8 x 8.99 mm and the weight is 150 grams. The battery capacity is 2500 mAh.

The smartphone runs on the operating system Android 4.4.2. In the AnTuTu Benchmark test, the device scores 32682 points.

Appearance

On the front of the device, there are light and proximity sensors, a 5 MP camera, a voice speaker, a Lenovo logo, a 5-inch screen, and three navigation buttons.

On the back side is the main speaker, a 13 MP camera with a dual LED flash and a company logo that protrudes slightly beyond the body.

The smartphone's power button and volume rocker are located on the right side, while the mircoUSB port and headphone jack are on the top of the device.



Your attention is invited to review another "Golden Warrior" - the Lenovo A806 smartphone, which, unlike its counterpart, has improved parameters and 4G support. In addition, its price is quite acceptable, which gives the gadget a good chance of success.

Appearance

In the case of this model, Lenovo decided to limit itself to only the golden color of the case. The smartphone is available in white, black, gray, red and traditional golden color. On the front side, above the display, there is a sensor speaker grille and a front camera. Below, as usual, there are three touch control buttons.

At the top of the end there is a microUSB connector and a 3.5 mm audio jack for a headset. On the right side of the gadget there are buttons for adjusting the volume level and turning the device on / off. The bottom end has a microphone hole. It is worth saying that the back cover is removed with some difficulty, under it there is a battery, a speaker and a 13 MP camera with a dual LED flash.

Screen

The new model from the manufacturer Lenovo is equipped with a 5″ IPS display with an HD resolution of 1280x720 pixels and a fairly high image quality. Viewing angles are comfortable, and color reproduction is performed without any blockages. Screen brightness when viewing documents or videos is decent.

The smartphone display is made using OGS technology, which eliminates the air cushion between the matrix and the touchscreen. The sensor functions smoothly and accurately.

Filling

Smartphone LenovoA806 is based on the MediaTek MT6592 processor with a clock frequency of 1.7 GHz. Thanks to 2 GB of "RAM" and 16 GB of internal memory, of which only 12 GB is initially available to the user, the interface works quite quickly. Loading programs is fast, no glitches were found during the review. It also provides memory expansion via microSD up to 32 GB.

The device is running the operating system Android 4.4.2. The smartphone functions stably, but it is recommended to update the firmware. According to user reviews, after updating it, the energy efficiency of the battery is significantly improved.

This model is equipped with a 2500 mAh battery, which, in principle, is not too good for a device with such a screen size. However, there are two pre-installed applications DU Battery saver and Power manager that allow you to set up power consumption profiles and increase battery life.

Wireless connection systems Bluetooth 4.0, Wi-Fi work well, and GPS instantly determines the location.

Sound

Of course, the Lenovo A806 does not have the highest quality speaker sound, but it is loud enough. An incoming call, message or player will be heard even if the smartphone is on the table, thanks to a slightly protruding camera on the back cover.

cameras

The smartphone is equipped with main and front video and photo cameras of 13 MP and 5 MP, respectively. For a device of this price category, the quality of the main camera is quite decent. Photos have good detail, both when shooting in daylight, and in the evening or in cloudy weather. When shooting at night, the flash does not "overexpose" the subject.

The main camera allows you to shoot video in Full HD quality, which should satisfy users who are well aware that this is still a smartphone, and not a professional camcorder.

The front camera does not correspond to 5 MP and produces low quality pictures / videos. Most likely, a low-resolution matrix was taken and "stretched" to the required value.

What is the result?

As this review shows, even with flaws in the factory firmware, Lenovo A806 is a pretty good device. Software troubles are solved very easily, especially since the hardware characteristics, price and build quality of the smartphone turned out to be at the level.

Advantages:

  • quality assembly;
  • high-performance processor;
  • high-quality main camera;
  • acceptable cost.

Flaws:

  • only 1 SIM card;
  • poor quality of the front camera;
  • To optimize performance, a flashing is desirable.

    1. Performance. 8 cores and 2 GB of RAM are felt. Especially when a lot of things are running on the phone. 2. Loud speaker and sound. 3. My firmware from the seller was normal, not buggy, completely in Russian, all Chinese applications were deleted. 4. The price is of course the main advantage for a phone with such parameters. Everything flies and it’s not particularly a pity if anything. 5. I personally consider the battery to be an advantage. Before that, there was a Sony Xperia SP phone, on which the battery ran down 3 times faster always. I play FIFA 14, FIFA 16, GTA: SA and actively browse social media. networks including videos. Batteries last for 1.5 days of such use. Sony had enough for half a day and constantly used portable charging. 6. From native charging, the phone charges quickly, despite 800-1000 Mah.

    1. The declared cameras did not live up to expectations by 13 and 5. Probably, these figures should be divided by 3 and there will be real parameters. But the quality of photos and videos is very good and, as always, on phones in good lighting, the pictures are excellent, the quality is a little worse, but the flash saves a little.
    2. Marked back cover, but saves the bumper or cover.

    There was a problem with the firmware. When I set the Russian language, I could not enter the applications (I gave an error). Measured. Then I accidentally deleted all system applications (Root explorer). And the phone didn't work at all. Found the firmware on the site, reflashed, everything works. it's a pity that the display is 720p, not 1080p

For a long time I was looking for a modern replacement for my old 4-core phablet ZOPO 980 (C2). Very meticulously leafing through the Internet with descriptions, reviews, reviews and technical parameters. There was nowhere to hurry, just picking the right moment.

And oh yes, that day has come! From numerous reviews, I realized that in the summer of 2014 it was good to take a device with an 8-core MTK 6592 processor, with a 4-core Mali 450 MP video card, at least 2 G of RAM. I also wanted Internet at a speed of 4 G, a high-quality built-in camera, a slot for a memory card, and a bigger battery. Why not Samsung with its Snapdragon? Because there is already one, I am very critical of him. Snapdragon 800 series with a 4-core processor with a frequency of up to 2400 GHz literally sucks out the battery, one has only to load it with a more or less complex program. Plus, in the summer, the palm warms up very significantly. There is no memory card, the battery is built-in and it is impossible to quickly replace it yourself without the services of a service. But it also does not work to charge the battery in 10 minutes! And there is no slot for a memory card, that's something!! For 25000 rubles!!!

Therefore, the processor from MTK suited me more as a consumer. 28 nm process technology with the ability to simultaneously work all 8 cores (Snapdragon's cores turn on sequentially, and even at different speeds!) allows you to economically and quickly flip through different browsers simultaneously, but without unnecessary loss of energy. But a significant disadvantage of this chip was the lack of support for high-speed Internet LTE 4G on a SIM card.

When I came across Lenovo A8 A806 "Golden Warrior", I couldn't even believe my eyes!

My favorite MTK 6592 processor with 4G support!! Yes, even with a good 13 megapixel camera, a capacious 2500 mA battery, in a convenient classic case with an economical but sufficient 320 pix / inch screen. According to the An-tu-tu test, he took an honorable 33,600 points, surpassing absolutely everyone in the speed of calculating integers and floating point, slightly losing to the leaders only in the performance of the video card. How did the old processor support 4G? In a very elegant way! Lenovo added another MTK 6290 processor to help it, thanks to its economical operation in 3G and 4G mode, the battery is consumed very economically!

The size of the device is 5 inches (141 mm x 71 mm x 11 mm), while the thickness of the main body of the phone is 9 mm, 11 with only a protruding camera and dual flash. Weighs about 140 gr. Added to this is a very high quality software from Lenovo. Yes, of course, Android 4.4, but modified by Lenovo with a special antivirus optimizer that not only kills viruses, but also cleans RAM, closes unnecessary running applications, and does a lot more to save battery and speed up programs. The photo-video-camera interface deserves special praise. It is not enough to say that it is made conveniently, purely professional options for working with the camera have been added, as on modern Sony cameras. Plus the ability to shoot in complete darkness thanks to a super-powerful dual LED flash, a highly sensitive matrix with an aperture of 1.8!

There is only one SIM card slot, in the center right under the camera, next to it is a slot for a micro SD memory card up to 32 GB. The phone itself has 16 GB of memory, of which about 3 GB is used for the operating system. Opening the back cover is not very convenient, it is fastened tightly, it is better to put a thin plastic pick into the slot beforehand (it's hard to stick a nail!). But the lid is held like a glove, and you can’t say that it is removable. I did not really like its smooth polished surface, I prefer more elastic lids with leather embossing. The battery is charged as standard, within 4-6 hours. The micro USB slot is made of high quality and reliable, on the top side panel, next to the 3.5 mm headset jack. On the right side panel there is a volume rocker (shooting on the camera), and a power key. It seemed convenient, to control the work the phone can be held with one hand and operated with only one thumb. The left and bottom side panels are not loaded with anything.

The sound of the external speaker is quite loud and clear, well audible in a noisy street. The sound in the headphones is not bad, but with the help of a loadable equalizer, you can achieve the perfect sound. The sensitivity of the cellular antenna is very commendable, the phone allows you to talk in iron elevators, and in the subway, in places where other phones did not work. Very bright flashlight thanks to dual LED flash. And yes, the phone is very fast! The most complex modern games that require maximum response speed under maximum graphics load, such as CSR rasing, Real rasing 3, etc. fly, which allows you to become a real champion! The speed of the internal memory is approaching 20 Mbps, measured when downloading and uploading on a computer. In general, it should be noted that the smartphone has a very high performance, which is especially noticeable when working on devices from other brands. And a very sensitive touchscreen with good picture quality. I also note the high-quality work of all sensors, from the proximity and light sensor, to the compass and the GPS module. The GPS module was especially pleased with the fast determination of coordinates and good interaction with satellites and electronic maps.

Here are examples of pictures taken from the phone's camera:

Just do not forget to set the time of day mode in the camera settings, night-night mode, day-day, at dusk-twilight.

And finally, about the price. With a very high quality of the smartphone, one cannot fail to note its modest price. In August 2014, it cost about 7,500 rubles. in Moscow, on Gorbushka. This is with all the advantages of the Hi-End model! I highly recommend it to fans of high-performance phablets.

Taking into account the start of production in September 2014 of cutting-edge models based on the MTK 6295 chipset for 20 Nm technology, I think that the price of this phablet should decrease. In general, the device works out its money perfectly, you don’t even expect much in this price category! In sum, I’ll say that if you need a super powerful miniature office and gaming computer, with a fully functional phone and high-speed Internet in addition, with a professional Full HD camera, plus the highest quality of all components, take this Lenovo model! I don’t want to once again advertise anyone for free, but even after Apple and Sony products, Lenovo looks very decent!

P.S. December 2014 The phone has been actively used for 4 months. The oleophobic coating of the branded screen film was slightly rubbed off, there were scratches on the back cover of the case, and two marks on the metal rim from hard falls on the tile from the height of the ear. (Moreover, unlike other phones, the back cover did not fly off with the battery when dropped). Otherwise, the phablet copes with its functions perfectly, in the 4G coverage area, the Internet works just instantly (especially in comparison with 3G). Downloaded the most graphically complex programs N.O.V.A. 3 and Modern Combat 4, they flutter like on a stationary computer! I am very pleased with my choice, the analogues of my phablet now start at 15,000 rubles. And the phone itself has noticeably risen in price, it is already sold from 10,500 rubles. in Moscow. The only remark is that I can’t install updates from Lenovo in any way, some program is blocking the installation. But I am becoming more and more convinced that Lenovo A806 is the best choice for its 7500 rubles. !!
