Lenovo has officially began teasing the launch of the Zuk Z1 in India. The phone which boasts some impressive specifications, was launched late last year as a product of the Zuk subsidiary brand backed by the Chinese OEM.
The phone looks set to arrive in India, after being available in China and Europe for or 7 months. The Zuk Z1 will be sold as the Lenovo Z1 in India, with the tagline “Powered by Zuk”.
The specs of the phone, are a bit outdated, and frankly it looks like a decent upgrade from the OnePlus One, thanks to the Dual SIM cards, a massive battery, a Fingerprint scanner and a USB Type-C port. The Lenovo Z1 will run on CyanogenOS (likely CyanogenOS 13 based on Android 6.0 Marshmallow).
