Editorial report
Lenovo A8 technical sheet
The Lenovo A8 is suited to basic everyday use for buyers who prioritize battery capacity; the trade-off is 10 W charging, slower than on most phones of its time. Its 5000 mAh battery holds more capacity than most phones launched around the same time, though charging power is modest.
The IPS LCD display measures 6.53″ and has a 720 × 1560 px resolution. Its 259 ppi density is among the lowest of its time, a clear compromise for anyone who values sharp detail. The MediaTek Helio P22 comes with 4 GB of RAM, below average, and 64 GB of storage, less than most phones of its time offer; storage is expandable. Overall, performance is below average.
The 13 MP main camera has lower resolution than most phones of its time and lacks optical image stabilization; the camera is among the weakest of its time. Connectivity is worse than most, with 4G, Wi-Fi 5, Bluetooth 5.0, dual Nano-SIM, GPS and Galileo, plus a 3.5 mm audio jack and FM radio. Android 10 and the higher-capacity battery make the Lenovo A8 an entry-level option for buyers willing to accept its limits in display definition, cameras and charging. Its overall NeoScore is 3.5.
