Lenovo P700i Hardware and Performance

Hardware and Performance

Under the hood, the Lenovo P700i runs on an Android 4.0.4 Ice Cream Sandwich OS, powered by the Mediatek MT6577 chipset. The presence of a dual-core 1.0 GHz Cortex-A9 CPU coupled with a PowerVR SGX531u GPU allows for basic multitasking and the smooth running of standard mobile applications available at the time. However, the device's 512MB RAM could pose limitations for heavier applications or extensive multitasking demands, which reflects its positioning as an entry-level to mid-range smartphone. Storage space is also on the conservative side, with 4GB of internal storage (approximately 1.85GB available to the user) and an expandable option via a dedicated microSDHC slot, where Lenovo generously included a 2GB card out-of-the-box.
