Lenovo continues to present terminals from the CES in Las Vegas, as has happened very recently, on this very day, where we have seen another interesting bet with the Lenovo K4 Note. A terminal that pretends to have good components plus what would be an appropriate price to launch into one of those online purchases in which they intend to sell it like donuts like Xiaomi. Now it comes with other intentions and they are none other than to adapt to one of the trends that has already been inscribed in the lives of many people. Selfies are the photos that have sharpened those front cameras so that they are improved and then make it possible to flood Instagram and Facebook with a lot of them.
The most successful manufacturer of PC computers, now brings us another exciting low-profile terminal from CES 2016 in Las Vegas. This is the S1 Lite and it comes straight to take over a market that is looking for phones prepared for selfie photos as it happens with this new one from Lenovo. A terminal that can also be stand out for that light weight, which will allow anyone to handle it without major problems, to press the shutter button and capture those selfies, with which then to demonstrate the quality of this phone just bought by a user.

The Vibe S1 consists of a 5-inch screen with 1920 x 1080 resolution, a MediaTek MTK6753 chip, 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB of internal memory. This internal memory can be expanded with a micro SD card of up to 32 GB and in what would be the battery capacity reaches up to 2.700 mAh.
We are in front of a telephone that enters compete directly against the third generation of the Moto G, although with a better quality Full HD IPS screen, the said battery and what is some good intentions in what are his photography skills.
Commenting on this topic, the one in the photos, the Vibe S1 Lite has a 8 MP front camera and a rear of 13 MP. The front has the great quality of having an LED flash and the rear has dual LEDs (CCT) and phase detection autofocus. Regarding the software, the Lenovo camera brings a little more than the default camera, with some features for facial recognition, a Live Photo mode and a few more things. Mention that the camera lens is from Sony.
A terminal to compete against the Moto G
The feature series ends with an Android 5.1 Lollipop, 4G LTE connectivity and dual SIM support. Regarding the weight, I said, with 127 grams they place it as a very light smartphone so that it does not become an extra weight for our daily tasks.
Regarding the design, we move with this phone to a metal frame and a curved back that contributes to give it a sophisticated look and that is often liked a lot lately with all that batch of smartphones from China that are betting heavily on this aspect in an Android smartphone.
The Lenovo Vibe S1 will be available in all the countries where the most important brands are sold, except in the United States. Its price is quite competitive for U.S. dollar 199 for a manufacturer that is internationally recognized for its good work in PC laptops, and its landing in a world such as mobile telephony, where it is doing quite well.
A phone that will make it very easy for those users who are looking for a medium performance and great design, since it is in this last aspect where it takes advantage of some of the competition, apart from being a terminal focused on selfies. Let's say that Lenovo has managed to find the necessary balance to sell this phone to a certain target audience.
