There is a new smartphone company rising every new month, and there is a new one now “ZUK” which is a sub-brand of Lenovo, also owned a smartphone company Motorola recently. the company taking a step in smartphone war with a new and mid end budget smartphone “Z1”.

The Z1 smartphone is filled with the best hardware; this phone features a 2.5 GHz Snapdragon 801 quad-core processor paired with 3 GB of RAM to give you better performance and multitasking. For the camera, it has Sony 13 IMX 214 for the primary camera and 8 MP shooter for front facing the camera to give you very clear and crisp images. The display of this phone is a 5.5 inch HD display, which will give you a long lasting fun with 4100 mAh battery. The phone also features a fingerprint scanner for making it more secure and a USB Type-C port first introduced by OnePlus in its second device, but ZUK is ahead of it, fixed a USB 3.1 in Z1.The phone priced with $280 which makes it a real rival of mid end budget devices in today’s smartphone market.

On the building level, this phone is quite like copied from Apple iPhone 6 as the bottom edge look exactly like the iPhone 6 with a microphone, loudspeaker and data sync and charging port at the bottom edge. The face of the smartphone has a square physical button below the large display with a fingerprint sensor on it.

ZUK wants to power its first smartphone Z1 with the robust OS other than the stock Android which is Cyanogen OS. Cyanogen had powered many smart phones previously like Yu of Micromax, OnePlus 1 and OnePlus 2. Several smartphone companies are making Cyanogen OS their debut OS with their smartphones because Cyanogen OSes are very easy to customize, root and installing custom recovery and custom ROMs and smartphone users are also starting to liking this OS then the stock Android OS (but I still like the Samsung’s TouchWiz UI).

Well, at last, I should say that ZUK will blow the smartphone market away with its smartphone-making ability, and this Z1 will create record selling at its release which is 21st August 2015 in ShenZhen, China.
