Lenovo Vibe Z2 'Selfie' Phone Finally Launched at IFA 2014: Its First 64-Bit Smartphone

Since the whole Ellen DeGeneres selfie thing, the selfie trend, to say the truth, has kicked off in a grand manner. And so much so that a host of smartphone makers have already invested in the idea of making selfie-oriented handsets. Lenovo now becomes the latest one to join the bandwagon.

With its IFA 2014 campaign already on the go, Lenovo has today unveiled its brand new Vibe Z2 smartphone. The new handset is a 5.5-inch device and is also a 64-bit smartphone.

"Remarkably slim at just 7.8 mm thin, this smartphone takes vibrancy to the next level with its extra-bright 600nit rating on a 5.5-inch (1280x720) HD display, making it one of the brightest screens on the market today, to produce ultra-sharp photos and video playback, even in bright sunlight," the official release states.
