The Chinese TENAA just revealed an interesting piece of information saying that Lenovo is working on a brand new smartphone. It will sport a big screen near to a tablet. At this time, Lenovo still has not decided any official name for their new product yet but a model name to distinguish from other items: Lenovo PB1-770N.

Rumors have been flying, implying that the new phablet is targeted as a direct competitor to one of Huawei‘s most popular flagship smartphones Huawei P8 Max.

Lenovo PB1-770N: Leaked information

The Lenovo PB1-770N appears to be inspired by Apple iPhone 6 design since it will feature a metal unibody. There is one and the only one small piece that uses plastic material: the part near Lenovo PB1-770N’s rear camera on the back. The plastic is said to maximize the power and stability of the device’s antenna.

Also from the rumors, we know that the device measures 186.6 x 96.6 x 7.7mm, with a 6.8-inch screen, quite huge for a smartphone. On the other hand, Lenovo’s new phablet is expected to feature 4G LTE, “maybe” 3GB or 4GB RAM and octa-core processor. Also, it can probably include a 16-megapixel rear, dual SIM Android OS.

Until now, we see that Huawei P8 Max seems to be having a real rival coming in the near future when the Lenovo PB1-770N has already made it through TENAA certification. Interestingly, we may have a chance to witness another tough battle between Lenovo and Huawei flagships. Who would win?
