pushed back to later this month, likely
to May 20, NDTV Gadgets has learnt
from its sources. We had earlier
reported that the phablet was set to
launch in India on May 10, but there
have been fresh developments since.
While the reasons for the delay aren't
clear, a source told NDTV Gadgets it is
likely due to the fact that company is
still finalising plans for the big
marketing initiative it has planned for
the device. Lenovo is said to be
betting on the K900 to make a big
push in the India market. The dealer
network and channel partners are
ready for the launch, as they have
been for a while, the source added.
Meanwhile, the Lenovo K900 has gone
on sale in China at a price (Yuan
3,299 or Rs. 29,000 approximately)
that is likely to test our earlier report
of a sub-Rs. 25,000 price point in
India. However, our source still insists
that the phablet will still be on the
right side of the Rs. 25,000 price tag
as far as consumers are concerned.
Lenovo K900 was first showcased at
CES earlier this year. The K900 packs
in Intel's dual-core Clover Trail+
platform, specifically the Intel Atom
Z2580 dual-core processor clocking in
at 2GHz. The device features a full-
HD display, 2GB RAM and is expected
to come with 16GB of internal
storage.
The phablet comes with 13-megapixel
rear camera with a new Sony Exmor
BSI sensor and a 2-megapixel front
camera. It is expected to ship with
Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean.
