Lenovo K5 Note expected to launch in India with 4 GB of RAM


Lenovo launched the Vibe K5 Note, back in January this year in China, rather surprisingly alongside the Vibe K4 Note, but the company is now preparing to bring this smartphone to India, with the device expected to launch next week, on August 1. If you’ve been looking forward to the latest affordable offering from Lenovo, there’s some great news that should get you even more excited about this launch.
A post on Lenovo India’s Twitter page teases the fact that the Indian edition of the K5 Note will feature 4 GB of RAM, instead of the 2 GB of RAM that was available with the original version. The K5 Note is an improved version of the Vibe K4 Note that had launched earlier in India, and sports a full metal body. Apart from the upgrade in the amount of RAM, we can expect the other specifications to be similar to the Chinese variant, including a 5.5-inch Full HD display, a large 3,500 mAh battery, and 4G LTE support.
With so much RAM at your disposal, the only thing you'll worry about on the  is running out of apps.
Similar to the Vibe K4 Note, its successor features a rear fingerprint scanner, a 1.5W speaker with Dolby ATMOS surround sound and supports Lenovo’s TheatreMax technology and ANT VR headset for converting games and videos in virtual reality. However, it’s not yet known if Lenovo will bundle the ANT VR headset along with the Vibe K5 Note, like it had done in with the  K4 Note. We can also expect the Indian variant of the K5 Note to release with Android 6.0 Marshmallow out of the box.
Lenovo has built quite a reputation for offering budget-friendly smartphones, and the Vibe K5 Note sells for about approximately Rs.11,300 in China. The device in India is expected to be priced slightly higher at around Rs.11,999 but the difference isn’t much, especially when you consider the extra 2 GB of RAM that is being added.
Let us know in the comments below if you think the Lenovo Vibe K5 Note is a good deal at this price!

Prisma app now available on Android

A couple of weeks on from its iOS launch, photo editing app Prisma is now available on Android through Google Play. For the uninitiated, Prisma uses hefty cloud computing power to add artistic effects to your photos. But the app is a far cry from standard photo filtering offerings like Instagram, with the app's various filters being able to intelligently identify various objects in your photos, and render accordingly. That's because photos are processed by the app's remote servers, as opposed to your phone, in order to bring the full force of cloud-based AI to your images. For that reason, Prisma can become slow during peak times — like right now, when the app has just been opened up to hundreds of millions of new users. Nevertheless, Prisma is a unique app that's capable of producing some truly remarkable images, and it's definitely worth a look if you're a keen Android photographer. If you're trying out Prisma on Android today, be sure ...
