Lenovo P2 review: Charge & Go

23 January 2017
With or without a Vibe (in its name), the P2 is a Lenovo purebred and a worthy successor to the acclaimed midrange Vibe P1. It offers an even higher battery capacity fitted inside a thinner and lighter body. And when we say higher capacity, we mean some incredible 5,100 milliamp hours worth of battery juice.

If this were Moto branded with stock UI, and 100$ more expensive, I would buy it in a heartbeat.

    Anonymous, 24 Jan 2017Superb phone. Why GSM arena never consider the Asus Zenfone... moreTheir bloatwares' suck...
    But i interested to read the ZenFone 3 zoom review once it comes out

    How well it does against P2's battery life, better camera setup and not to mention better update support (not the fastest update in the market, but they treated their phone better than lenovo did), and its design is better imo

              One of the best phones I've owned... and I've had a lot of phones. Amazing battery life and snappy performance... gaming is just fine, I didn't experience any lags or freezes.. maybe once during the month I've owned it. Only wish it had the camera on the Asus Zenfone 3 Zoom (as they share nearly the same specs), it would have been perfect.

                                  I like that Lenovo provides a cleaner, more stock-like Android experience as each iteration passes by, much better than the old Chinese-iPhone style UI it used to feature before. Next, they should change the generic design of the exterior.....

                                    Amazing! We have a new battery champ at GSMArena! 149 hours is awesome!
                                    But I must admit it is mainly due to the superb stand-by and overall efficiency of the Snapdragon 625 even with a 1080p screen and "just" a 1080p screen.
                                    If you see the individual battery scores (especially web browsing), they are lower than that of the similar scoring Gionee Marathon M5, though that has a 720p, 6020mAh and a sligthly less efficient chipset.
