Still talking about the latest phones unveiled by Lenovo, in my previous post I wrote about the Lenovo S5 Pro, which I advice you take a look at its detailed specs. This post, I shall be revealing to you the second phone – the Lenovo K5 Pro. Without wasting much of your time, let me show you the K5 Pro’s key features, full specifications and price.
Lenovo K5 Pro Features
The Lenovo K5 Pro is a more affordable to the S5 Pro. Looking at the features, it sports a 6 inch 1080 pixel + screen. The screen lacks a notch, so the usable area is pretty similar, The K5 Pro is powered by the same Snapdragon 636 chipset, paired with 4GB or 6GB RAM and 64GB or 128GB internal storage.
Above the screen of the Lenovo K5 Pro, you will find a dual selfie camera (no IR this time), with a 16MP main module and 5MP depth sensor. At the rear you will also find a dual camera setup, which is also 16MP + 5MP. The main camera has an f/2.0 aperture and uses multi-frame noise reduction for better low-light shots.

Just like the S-series, the K5 Pro has side-firing stereo speakers These are backed by SmartPA amps by NXP with Dirac support. Once again USB-C handles the charging while the 3.5mm headphone jack does audio.
Looking at the battery, the Lenovo K5 Pro have a larger 4050mAh battery, and it supports 18W Quick Charge 3.0. It does not look like charging is capped at 15W, and you cannot use this phone to charge other devices either.
