Lenovo Z2 Plus 32GB (Zuk Z2) Expert Review Summary
Expert Rating:
![Ketaki Bhojnagarwala]()
Verdict
At its starting price of Rs 17,999 for the 3GB RAM 32GB option, the Lenovo Z2 Plus is possibly the best budget flagship you can buy. Our 4GB 64GB unit is priced at Rs 19,999, which is still more affordable than the Xiaomi Mi 5 (review), which costs Rs 22,999. A Snapdragon 820 SoC at this price point is pretty much a steal deal, but that said, don’t expect the same performance you’d get on a device like the OnePlus 3 (review), for instance. The Z2 Plus has its flaws too &nda
Pros
- Solid build
- Almost vanilla Android interface
- Stable performance
- Great value for money
Cons
- No expandable storage
- Average cameras
- Design is boring
Specs at a Glance
+
Design: sturdy, but uninspiring
+
The Lenovo Z2 Plus is a compact, sturdy little device, but don't expect it to turn any heads. It’s very solid thanks to a fibreglass frame which is stronger than aluminium. Lenovo’s used a ‘roll-cage’ design for the Z2 Plus, meaning that the individual components are stacked on top of each other, which the company says can protect the phone in case of drops. The Z2 Plus features 2.5D curved glass on both the front and the back, but it’s not much of a curve, so you don’t get those stunning edges seen on the Honor 8, for instance. The back panel, being made of glass, is prone to getting smudged and unfortunately, scratched very easily as well. It’s a good thing Lenovo’s included a case in the retail box, which we strongly suggest you use.

Display: curved and compact
+
The Z2 Plus sports a compact 5-inch display, which is great for one-handed use. With full HD resolution, you get a pixel density of 441ppi. The screen is crisp with bright colours, although viewing angles aren’t the best.

Cameras: good, but not the best
+
The Z2 Plus sports a 13MP primary camera with PDAF and f/2.2 aperture, and an 8MP selfie shooter with face detection. The camera app is very simple, but it’s too barebones for our liking. Swiping to the right on the viewfinder will bring up a range of filters you can apply in real time. A button at the top opens up modes like HDR, Slo-mo, Time-lapse, Flash, Pano and an option to adjust the aspect ratio. You’ll also find quick access toggles to the flash and HDR mode (including an auto HDR option) on top. The Z2 Plus doesn’t feature a dedicated camera app. Instead, the phone uses Google Photos as the default camera app, much like Cyanogen OS.

Software: vanilla Android with a few extras
+
Performance: smooth, for the most part
+
The Z2 Plus is powered by a Snapdragon 820 SoC clocked at 2.15GHz. It comes in both 3GB and 4GB RAM configurations, which offer 32GB and 64GB of non-expandable internal storage respectively. We had the latter for review, and on our unit, we got about 52.86GB out of the box.
