Lenovo teases its upcoming smartphone series, challenges the Redmi Note 9

Sagar, 27 November 2020

Lenovo posted a few images on Weibo to tease its upcoming smartphone series that will compete with Redmi's freshly announced Note 9 trio.

The pictures shared by Lenovo also reveal a few details about the company's upcoming smartphone lineup. For starters, at least one of the smartphones will have a squircle-shaped camera island on the back housing what appears to be three cameras and an LED flash.

It will pack a punch-hole display and have the power key placed on the right-side frame. There's another button on the left, which might be a dedicated button to summon the digital assistant. Upon closer inspection, you can also see that the 3.5mm headphone jack is located at the top.

Lenovo didn't reveal any specs of the smartphone, but the Weibo post says it will have a better camera, bigger screen, and a more convenient design. Compared to what? The "6 is more than 9" text clearly indicates it's going against the newly introduced Redmi Note 9 series.

We'll hopefully know more about Lenovo's new smartphone series in the coming days.
