Lenovo Z6 Youth Edition announced: Snapdragon 710 SoC and triple rear cam

After launching the flagship Z6 Pro last month, Lenovo follows up by announcing a toned down variant dubbed the Lenovo Z6 Youth Edition, also called the Z6 Lite.

The Lenovo Z6 Youth Edition has Snapdragon 710 SoC at the helm and it runs Android Pie-based ZUI 11 out-of-the-box. The smartphone comes in three memory configurations - 4GB/64GB, 6GB/64GB, and 6GB/128GB. And you can expand the storage by up to 256GB via microSD card.

The Z6 Youth Edition is built out of roll cage magnesium alloy which is the same material we see on Lenovo's ThinkPad notebooks. The smartphone is offered in two colors - Knight Black and Stardust. The former has a textured back, while the latter flaunts a gradient design.

On the front, the Lenovo Z6 Youth Edition sports a 6.3-inch display having 19.5:9 aspect ratio, 2340 x 1080-pixel resolution, and HDR10 support. The screen also has a waterdrop notch which houses the 16MP selfie camera.

Around the back, you get a triple camera setup which consists of 16MP main (f/1.8), 8MP telephoto (f/2.4), and 5MP wide-angle (f/2.2) units. This camera system offers 8x hybrid zoom and comes with some AI tricks.

The Lenovo Z6 Youth Edition is priced at CNY1,199 ($174) for the 4GB/64GB model, CNY1,399 ($203) for the 6GB/64GB version, and CNY1,699 ($246) for the 6GB/128GB variant. It will go on sale in China from May 28 through the company's official China site, TMall, and JD.com.
