Reviews for the Lenovo Legion Y70

Lenovo Legion Y70 Smartphone Review
Source: OI Spice Tech News English
The fact can’t be hidden as the Lenovo Legion Y70 5G is an impressive option in the flagship smartphone range. It has almost everything that even users want for the smartphone from robust performance to long-lasting battery life, the phone got everything. Yet, we will also don’t deny that the phone has some flaws in low light photography and the phone is currently exclusive to China. And from the history of Lenovo, it’s not clear whether the smartphone makers will take any steps to launch this phone on the global stage. But if you are in search of an alternative variant, we recommend you to check out the Xiaomi 12s Pro for better camera quality. On the other hand, if you want all-rounder specs the Samsung Galaxy A53 5G will be worth your money.
