After the release of the Lenovo K8 Note, the company released a more degraded version of it yesterday in India. Dubbed as the Lenovo K8 Plus, the smartphone was deemed to look like the K8 Note and offer premium specs as well.

Moving on, the Lenovo K8 Plus sports a 5.2-inch full HD display. The screen is protected with 2.5D Gorilla Glass and Oleophobic coating. On board is a 2.6Ghz Helio P25 Octa-core processor, 3GB RAM and 32GB ROM. Yet, the Product Marketing Head of Lenovo MBG India said that they will introduce a 4GB RAM/32GB ROM variant later on.
Its rear dual camera consists of a primary 13MP Purecel Plus sensor + 5MP depth sensor with f/2.0 Largan Precision 5-element lens. On the other side is an 8MP front camera with f/2.0, Party Flash, Professional Mode, Beautify Mode and 84-degree wide angle lens. Running on Android 7.1 Nougat, the K8 Plus is juiced by 4000mAh battery which is claimed by the company to last for two days.
That said, another much lower version of the K8 Note was launched as well… the Lenovo K8. Having the same 5.2-inch display, the K8 only has a 720p display. The device runs on MediaTek Helio P20 processor and houses a 4,000mAh as well. However, it doesn’t sport dual cameras but instead is only equipped with a rear 13MP with PDAF.
At the price of RS. 10,999, the K8 Plus will be available in venom black and fine gold colors. The pricing of the Lenovo K8 wasn’t revealed yet. The K8 Plus is already up for sale in Flipkart as of now. Fret not, we’ll keep you updated on its Philippines release.
