Lenovo Z5 leak shows off a notch-free phone with a prominent chin that houses the selfie camera and other sensors

While it was thought that the Lenovo Z5 could be the first smartphone to sport a completely bezel-less look without a notch, the latest leaked images reveal that the smartphone will skip on the notch, but also that it will sport a sizable chin at the bottom.

However, as per a report by GSMArena, the new image, which was again spotted on Weibo, seems to suggest that the chin isn’t as thin as it initially looked, This is because the chin on the phone not only houses the front camera module but also the other sensors which would otherwise be on the smartphone’s forehead. By the looks of it, Lenovo has just flipped a regular phone around. The report by GSMarena also sheds light on a Lenovo smartphone which has popped up on popular benchmarking site Geekbench, believed to be the Z5. Bearing the model number L78011, the smartphone is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 chipset along with a healthy 6 GB of RAM. The phone was also seen running on the latest build of Android Oreo 8.1. [caption id=“attachment_4496207” align=“alignnone” width=“1280”] Alleged Lenovo Z5 spotted on Geekbench.

Any details on pricing or availability are yet to be announced. There’s also no word on an India launch.
