I have ordered this phone in Flipkart yesterday and eagerly waiting for the delivery. I zeroed in on this phone after going through lots of online reviews. I liked all the aspects of this phone except for the internal memory of 4 GB.I hope the phone will live up to my expectations though little skeptical about the 4 GB internal memory. I wish it had at least 8GB. Anyways I will post a detailed review once I get to play with the phone. I couldn't find any pouch or flip case for this phone. If somebody knows where I can get one plz let me know.nnI received my phone on 9th, just on the 3rd day of placing my order. Flipkart as usual excellent delivery :-)nnNow let me get into the detailed review of the phone after two days usage:nnPros:n1. Excellent screen. It is a treat to watch videos and play game on this phonen2. Sound: The sound quality is good and loud as well. However not good when using the kit earphones.n3. Battery: With a good amount of gaming, browsing, music and calls it s easily giving a battery backup of 1.5 days, which i think is good for a phone of this spec.n4. Gaming and Performance: The only relatively heavy game which i have played in this is Templerun 2 and Subway Surfer and I am pretty satisfied with the performance. absolutely no lags.n5. Network coverage: The Coverage seems to be decent. I haven't found any issue with this till now. n6. Overall look and feel: The phone has a premium look and feel to it and looks very sleek. It feels very solid (similar to HTC) in hand, however it is lightweight.nnCons:n1. Accessories: The charger and earphone looks very plasticy and substandard.The sound quality is not good with the kit earphones. it is better when I am using my philips earphonesn2. No case or Pouch available: there is no flip case or pouch available anywhere (I have not come across). I had to settle down for a generic pouch for now.nnIn a nutshell, the phone is really worthy of the money you spent on it and i'll surely recommend it. Anyways, need to wait and watch how the phone is holding up in the long run.nnUpdating my review after around 4 months of usage:n1. The network coverage of this phone is excellent. The call and sound quality is good even when the signal strength is weak.n2. Gaming experience is good with minimal or no lag... I have tried Temple run 2, Subway surfer, Deer Hunder 2014, Fifa 2014, Dhoom 3, Stick cricket etc......n3. Battery backup is decent. Gives one day backup with heavy gaming and moderate internet usagen4. Now 8 GB version of this phone is available.. What more you can ask for?n5. Variety of flip covers are available across ecommerce sitesn6. Icing on the cake: Price has comedown to around 16k... I paid 18 K around 4 months back......
I purchased the Lenovo S820 from Flipkart because it wasn't available in shops around my area, who told me they stopped keeping Lenovo products due to service issues. That didn't stop me from buying this phone from Flipkart.nnIt's a thin and premium looking phone. The speakers and screen picture quality are very good. It's really feels good to pick this phone in your hands. But the moment I dropped it, the edge of the phone got dented. That looked very bad and I never saw this issue in the earlier phones I used such as Galaxy Nexus, Galaxy S and Xolo Q700. On a few occasions of dropping the phone, cracks developed in the plastic body near the edges. The phone looks bad now and the back cover and the front panel doesn't fit properly.nnI found out there is 'only one' service center in Mumbai that too at a very far off area in Andheri (HCL Tower). The staff are least bothered to serve you. After 3-4 repeated attempts someone answers the call. After I told the customer representative 'Irshad' that I would like to change the plastic body of my phone he told me that he will check if the part is available. I waited for 5 minutes on call and then he told me to leave me number with him and that I should call him later if he doesn't call. And he didn't. That show they don't want to serve.nnI later called him after a day. He told me that the body will cost me Rs. 2000 (I was expecting around Rs. 1000 max) and it will take 15 days to replace the body. Also, it make take longer. I don't see it they will really be able to replace the body.nnSo I will definitely not go for a Lenovo phone next time. Service to customers so matter and the company should think of getting their own service centers around india.
