Lenovo unveiled its K6 series at IFA 2016 in Berlin back in September. The company launched K6 Note, K6 and the K6 Power at the event, but it looks like only the Power version is coming to India now. Given the 4,000 mAh battery, it will likely be a competitor against the Redmi 3S series which also boasts of a 4000 mAh plus battery, but at under Rs 10,000 budget pricing.
In terms of specifications, Lenovo K6 Power has a 5-inch Full HD IPS display (1920 x 1080 pixels resolution), 1.3 GHz octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 430 processor, 3GB RAM and 3GB RAM storage coupled with an Adreno 505 GPU. The phone support microSD card with 256GB limit.
The camera on the K6 Power is 13MP rear camera with LED flash, PDAF and front camera is 8MP. The device has 4,000 mAh non-removable battery and a fingerprint scanner on the back. It has a metal uni-body design that we’ve come to see in many of the budget phones nowadays and like other Lenovo phones this one too comes with Dolby Atmos-powered sound.
