The ZUK is a subsidiary company created as a partnership between the Chinese Lenovo and Qihoo 360, and was responsible for launching the interesting ZUK Z2 lately. Although count on powerful specs and price below that have on your competitors, the device is not seen as being able to compete with current flagships on the market, largely because of its “outdated” Snapdragon 801 chipset.

 Apparently the company is already planning new heights, as recently seen rumors about the ZUK Z2 reach consumers already in January and bearing the brand new Snapdragon 820 inside, something that certainly would put him in contention to face models from major manufacturers title more powerful device. Now, new information on the subject were released by the Asian mobile portal-dad, giving some details about the technical specifications we can expect for the new device and even the amount that will be charged by ZUK for it at launch.

 According to what was available, the ZUK Z2 will not only with the powerful chipset, but with a whole host of features that will make a very complete option for users, including:

•  5.5-inch screen with a resolution Quad HD (1440 x 2560 pixels)
• Chipset Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 64-bit Quad-Core with new cores Hydra and manufacturing FinFET 14nm
• 4GB of RAM LPDDR4
• 64GB of internal storage

 As can be seen, the user is unlikely to have performance issues with this ZUK Z2, besides having a high resolution screen and a good amount of internal storage, even if there is no information on the existence of a slot for expansion via card microSD. Unfortunately, they have not yet revealed details about the cameras, battery or other important points, which should be seen more often in the coming months.

 In addition to the wattage specifications, the ZUK Z2 can be a reference also when we talk about the cost-benefit aspect, given that the source says he will sell for an initial value of 2,000 Yuan, which gives somewhere around US $ 314.

Last month, we saw the ZUK Z1 be certified in China, the first product of a startup created by Lenovo. Much was made of the model, especially the curiosity of users to understand what this new move of the company that already has a wide range of smartphones that aim to deliver a good balance between performance and price.

How we could not miss, have an optical image stabilizer that ensures not only more stable videos, but also clearer photos in dark environments.

Too often we judge a product just for its processor, but the ZUK Z1 bet on generous battery 4.100mAh that promises to last a few days away from the outlet. The model also comes with biometric reader on your physical button below the screen and USB 3.0 port with Type-C standard that delivers high data transfer speeds and helps to quickly charge the battery model.
