Performance
Under the hood, the Lenovo A65 is powered by a Mediatek MT6573 chipset at 65 nm technology, alongside a 650 MHz Cortex-A9 CPU and PowerVR SGX531 GPU. While modest, this configuration was standard for entry-level smartphones of its era and met the demands of users who needed a device for calling, messaging, and light app usage. It shipped with Android 2.3.5 Gingerbread, one of the earlier versions of Android, offering a user-friendly interface and basic app support.
