Lava Z1 2 GB / 16 GB / India technical sheet
The Lava Z1 may suit anyone looking for a simple, lightweight phone: it weighs 175 g and measures 145.1 × 73.3 mm. Its main trade-offs are a low-resolution display and limited memory.
The 5-inch TFT LCD display has a resolution of 854 × 480 px and a density of 196 ppi. Both that density and the 64.8% screen-to-body ratio are among the weakest of phones launched around the same time. At 10.3 mm thick, the phone is thicker than most of its contemporaries. Its 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB of storage are also among the lowest figures of the period, although storage is expandable. The phone uses a quad-core MediaTek Helio A20 processor and runs Android 10 with Google Services.
The 5 MP rear camera resolution is among the weakest of its time, and video recording reaches 720p at 30 fps. The 3100 mAh battery and 5 W charging are also among the weakest figures. Other features include Dual Nano-SIM, Bluetooth 5.0, GPS, FM radio, and a 3.5 mm audio jack. Its 175 g weight is lower than that of most phones launched around the same time. With an overall NeoScore of 2.6, the Lava Z1 is a basic-use option, but its display, memory, camera, and battery are among the weakest of its time.
