Exactly a week after it launched its new affordable 4G LTE smartphone at CES in Las Vegas, Lenovo has launched its A6000 in India at a very aggressive price of Rs 6,999.
India is the first market to get the phone. The phone will be sold only through Flipkart based on registrations starting 6 pm on January 16 and lasting till January 27 pm. The first sale is on January 28 at 2 pm.
The Lenovo A6000 is powered by the 1.2GHz 64-bit quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 processor along with Adreno 306 GPU , 8GB internal memory, 1GB RAM and a 2300 mAh battery. The device mounts an 8MP rear camera along with a 2MP fixed focus front camera. Running on Android 4.4 KitKat OS, the device offers two micto SIM card slots.
Lenovo, which recently completed its acquisition of Motorola, will continue to offer products under both the brands in India. Colin Giles, Lenovo’s senior vice president for worldwide sales who has a similar role in Motorola, said the strategy might differ in other countries, “but we will definitely have both the brands in India.” This strategy was a testament of the stupendous success of the Motorola brand in the country following its return last year.
