Even though Lenovo is one of the main laptop OEMs on the market, the company already has 7 years of experience in the smartphone industry, and the rate at which the company releases new mobile device models has increased over the past few years, especially after the revival of the Motorola brand. Back at MWC 2018, Lenovo did not announce any new smartphones, except for the Moto E5, but the Hong Kong company is likely to release more smartphones in late March, at least according to a recent Weibo teaser post made by company executive Chang Cheng.
The teaser was sent from an unannounced Lenovo S5 device, so the executive is most likely referring to this particular model. Moreover, the mystery device is said to feature a 6,000 mAh battery and could be coming with a glossy metal back, as teased by Cheng a few months ago.
In his Weibo teaser post, Cheng also reveals that the new smartphone is to be officially announced on March 20.

I first stepped into the wondrous IT&C world when I was around seven years old. I was instantly fascinated by computerized graphics, whether they were from games or 3D applications like 3D Max. I'm also an avid reader of science fiction, an astrophysics aficionado, and a crypto geek. I started writing PC-related articles for Softpedia and a few blogs back in 2006. I joined the Notebookcheck team in the summer of 2017 and am currently a senior tech writer mostly covering processor, GPU, and laptop news.
