Editorial report

Lava Z2 2 GB / 32 GB / India technical sheet

The Lava Z2 suits anyone looking for a basic phone for everyday tasks and who prioritizes battery capacity. Its main trade-offs are memory, display and camera: overall performance is worse than that of most phones launched around the same time.

The 6.51-inch IPS LCD display has a resolution of 720 × 1600 px, 270 ppi and peak brightness of 440 nits. Its pixel density and brightness are both lower than those of most phones of its time. The diagonal may suit someone looking for a large display, while the resolution and brightness set its limits. The phone includes Gorilla Glass 3 and Always-On Display.

This configuration has 2 GB RAM and 32 GB storage. Its RAM is among the weakest amounts of its time, while storage and its AnTuTu result are worse than most. The 13 MP rear camera uses a 1/3″ sensor and has no optical image stabilization; its specifications and the camera overall are worse than those of most phones launched around the same time.

The 5000 mAh battery has more capacity than that of most phones of its time, but 10 W charging is slower than most; the battery overall is typical. With an overall NeoScore of 3.9 and overall performance worse than most phones of its time, the Lava Z2 is a better fit for basic phone needs than for anyone prioritizing memory, display or camera capabilities.
