No doubt that Lenovo Vibe X is the handiest, lightest, thinnest and perhaps the best in terms of display here. It is because the device sports a 5.0-inch Full HD screen with 441 ppi, definitely higher than the others and promising to bring users excellent experience in viewing things. Nonetheless, if you want a real big screen to play games or watching movies, you should take Lenovo Phab Plus with its 6.0-inch Full HD display into consideration. Anyway, both of them have decent chips, RAM, ROM, and snappers to perform most tasks well.
However, they cannot beat Vibe P1 or ZUK Z1 in terms of batt. Yeah, these guys pack huge cells capable of 5,000mAh and 4,100mAh, respectively, and they can be replenished quick thanks to fast charging technology. Generally, P1 is a good battery smartphone, but sorry, it cannot be the winner of this comparison since other Lenovo Vibe P1 specs are not as strong as Lenovo ZUK Z1 specs.
Z1 is the only one boasting a Snapdragon 801 quad-core 2.5GHz chip set, 3GB RAM, 64GB ROM, and 8MP selfie shooter here. So, if you do not mind that Z1’s internal storage is not expandable, we would like to announce that Lenovo ZUK Z1 is our winner today.
LENOVO ZUK Z1 vs VIBE P1 vs PHAB PLUS vs VIBE X: Price and availability
Lenovo ZUK Z1 price was $280 originally, and has surely been lower by now. That seems a very good cost for a 3GB RAM device like the Z1, huh?! Lenovo Vibe P1 price is also super affordable, $240 or even below. Meanwhile, we think Lenovo Phab Plus price and Lenovo Vibe X price will be okay if they are dropped down to around $300 as their original ones were $406 and $473, respectively.
