Lenovo K5 Play Unboxing

The Lenovo K5 Play is another option in the ever exploding market for affordable smartphones. While many affordable smartphones offer Mediatek CPU, the K5 Play distinguishes itself with a Qualcomm processor and an impressive lineup of specs all at a price that is around $120. We got our hands on the black model and will be revealing our Lenovo K5 Play unboxing photos and videos here.

Coming in at a price of around $120 in Lenovo’s official store on AliExpress, the K5 Play seems like a great bargain considering that it boasts of an octa-core Qualcomm processor, 3GB RAM, 32GB built-in storage, and LTE.

But, don’t get carried away, the Lenovo K5 Play is still an entry-level smartphone. It will satisfy the needs of most people looking for entry-level to mid-range smartphones, but don’t expect too much.

Now, let us see some of the items in the box, starting with the charger. Charger is rated 1A at 5V. It is not the fastest charger, but should not take too long to fully charge your phone.

Good news, the charger has a rated input voltage of 100V to 240V, which means it should be charging your smartphone even during low voltage.
