Reviews for the Lenovo Vibe C

When price matters
Source: Laptop Media
Vibe C offers a convenient design thanks to its 5-inch display and slightly curved sides. Additionally, you are presented with a good performance for this range provided by Qualcomm Snapdragon 210. Even when it comes to software, the model performs at more than a reasonable level, offering a UI with useful additional pre-installed apps. Just like almost every budget smartphone, Vibe C has its drawbacks. They are chiefly manifested in its display, as it lacks an IPS panel, although we can perhaps overlook this since the customers that will be using this device will not really need an IPS screen. The battery life is another disadvantage. Of course, it depends on how you are planning to use the device but don’t expect good durability.
