The Lenovo Z5 Pro GT has been officially unveiled. It’s the first flagship to feature Snapdragon 855 and a whopping 12GB of RAM. For now, the handset is only expected to launch in the Chinese market some time next year at a price tag of 4389 yuan ($638). Pricing and availabilty details for other markets haven’t been revealed so far.

Lenovo is also offering other RAM and storage configurations for the Z5 Pro. The base model comes with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of on-board storage, which gets a price tag of 2698 yuan ($390 approx.) Besides, Lenovo will even sell a more affordable version of the handset, featuring Snapdragon 710 processor paired with 6GB of RAM and 64GB of storage.

As with most modern day flagships, the Lenovo Z5 Pro sports an all-screen design, however, does not sport a notch unlike most 2018 Android flagships. The reason being that Lenovo has opted for a motorized camera mechanism which houses the 16MP selfie cam and the 8MP infrared camera. On the back, the smartphone packs a 24MP and 16MP dual-lens camera.

As far as OS goes, the handset runs Android 9 Pie out-of-the-box with Lenovo’s UI on top.

Other notable features include a 6.39-inch OLED screen, Bluetooth 5.0, Wi-Fi, dual-SIM support, and a 3350 mAh battery. It also comes with a fifth-gen fingerprint scanner. However, there’s no suport for wireless charging. Also, the Lenovo Z5 Pro misses the classic 3.5mm headphone jack, neither does it get support for wireless charging. It comes with a USB Type-C port for charging and listening to audio.
