One of the busiest smartphone category is that of low budget smartphones and joining the league is the Lava Z80 smartphone. The smartphone has a nice design as well as a list of impressive features. Released late last year, the smartphone is mainly targeted at the Indian market. In a way the smartphone has a similarity to the Xperia line of smartphones by Sony.
Lava Z80 Key Specs and Features 5.0-inch, IPS LCD capacitive touchscreen, 1280 x 720 pixels (294 ppi) Quad-core MediaTek MT6737M CPU with 3GB RAM 16GB built-in storage, up to 64GB memory card 8MP rear camera and 5MP front camera 4G LTE Fingerprint sensor (rear) 2, 500mAh non removable Li-ion battery
The Lava Z80 has a bar shaped design with slightly curved edges too. It also borders towards the thicker end as it sports a thickness of 8.4mm. Like some of the smartphones from Lava, the smartphone has unnecessarily thick bezels both below and above the screen. Also, it is made from a blend of both plastic and metallic material and weighs about 137g.
The Lava Z80 is just a normal low budget smartphone that has the standard 1280 x 720 pixels resolution on a 5.0-inch display. Unlike the recent bezel-less display screens, the smartphone features clearly visible side bezels.
Battery and CameraLike most smartphones in its category the Lava Z80 has a not too large battery capacity. It comes with just 2, 500mAh Li-ion battery which is not much but should be a able to get you through the day provided usage is kept minimal. Another thing absent here is the quick charge option available in premium smartphones.
Lava promises sharper portrait pictures when it comes to taking pictures using the Lava Z80 smartphone with the bokeh effect which helps in blurring picture backgrounds. The smartphone features a 8MP rear camera and a front 5MP camera for taking selfies.
Hardware and SoftwareIf you’re going to get a low budget smartphone expect a low grade hardware. However, we have a slightly different case here considering the device features an impressive 3GB RAM and a Quad-core MediaTek MT6737M processor.
In addition to these, the Lava Z80 comes with a Mali-T720 MP1 GPU which handles everything from gaming to graphics rendering. The smartphone also have 16GB internal storage expandable up to 64GB and runs Star OS 4.1 based on Android 7.0 (Nougat).
