Lenovo defied all speculations and launched its new phone, the Z5, with an iPhone X-like notch and mid-range Qualcomm chipset. The firm took the wraps off the device at an event in China, and it is nothing half as exciting as what everyone had anticipated from Lenovo Z5 official teasers and promos.
Like many other Android phones launched this year, the Z5 has a notch and a chin. Yes there is no full view screen, no Snapdragon 845, and no 4TB storage on board.
