Hello Lenovo P770 and S890!
We take a break from all the hands-on and reviews here at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain to report on some important developments back in the Philippines. First up is the announcement of Lenovo Mobile Philippines that the Lenovo S890 and Lenovo P770 are now available locally! That’s fantastic news! The Lenovo S890 is a Jelly Bean touting dual-core 5-inch smartphone while the Lenovo P770 also runs on Jelly Bean and has a smashing 3,500mAh battery. We already did a hands-on with the Lenovo P770 in a previous article so check that out if you want to know more about it.
Here’s a quick rundown of the spec sheets of both devices as well as their newly announced price tags.
