Lenovo A319 - an inexpensive 4-inch entry-level smartphone, released at the end of 2014. The device is equipped with a simple TFT-matrix with a resolution of 800x480, a modest 1500 mAh battery, 512 MB of RAM and 4 GB of internal memory. The performance of the device is determined by the 2-core processor MT6572M with a clock frequency of 1.3 GHz.
The weakest point of the phone is the low battery life, which, with moderate use, is not enough for half a day. However, the new and more energy-efficient Lenovo A319 firmware can extend the life of a single charge.
