  • Lenovo a830, a Chinese brand, is really a user friendly android phone, Jelebian version. Fortunately, I use it last 2 months and get excellent service though there are some drawbacks. Some built in software are in Chinese version which create problem in different users.Also, GOOGLE PLAY is not supported. Overall, performance is better than other Chinese phone. [email protected]

  • paul ginger the phone works on both sim cards but only sim 1 is 3g, sim 2 only works as GSM note that it only has WCDMA 2100 so it probably works only in cities depending on ur carrier i wanted to buy it but i needed WCDMA 900 too check this out and if it's only 2100, you got a green ligh buying it

  • Is this unit available in the Philippines? Please reply. Thanks!

  • you do not need pcsuit, connect it through wireless networking with your computer.

  • No PC Suite or anything like that far as I know.

  • Is there any desk top software (PC Suite) available for this phone?

  • Does this supports 3G Video Calls?

  • 1. brightness under sun light - not so great but acceptable 2. battery life - awesome. 24 hours is very doable with normal use.

  • Can some body tell me about the brightness of screen under sun light and battery life ( normal use feedback - watching video - browsing - heavy gaming )

  • of course rooting will allow you to do anything with your device that is written in linux code. but you can also go to google.com and type in the name of any aplication you want with no spaces and put .apk afterwords (exampleapp.apk) and you should be able to find it quickly. also some versions of the phone come with the playstore installed. some of these things depend on the source of the phone there are some websites out there that sell already rooted phones but it is hard to find without stumbling onto them as it is site and phone specific. hope that helps some of you.

  • It is a great phone, fast, big bright screen, big storage and RAM. First thing I've done is to purge every Chinese application, and rename some folders; this was minimally painful. However... Google Play doesn't work on it, and LenovoStore only displays in Chinese language (although I know there is no such thing as "Chinese language" ...), and there is no way around it. Some applications can be installed through LenovoStore, and they are in English, but on the long run it is not a great solution.

  • Camera back 12.6Mpix, camera front 4.9Mpix

  • A830 & A820 are supported by the Google play ! is it gonna work now ?

  • root the device to get google play

  • Can this phone Lenovo A830 be used in Canada? thx

  • Does it come with Corning Gorilla Glass? With a 5" display, it might easily cracked if the screen is not protected.

  • Wish its got Google apps on it, no account no PLAY.... Solution pls

  • Anyone know how to make google play to work on this phone? It's not listed on the supported phone list

  • I just got my order, thank you. Yet i can`t get google play store to work. I installed it but just shuts down. How do i make it work ? It isn`t listed in devices supported by google store either. thank you

  • where are you from ??

  • The phone is good. Performance and battery life is excellent. Runs smooth and I love it. Issues with Google play store, gmail and g talk. Lenovo store in Chinese. How can one install Google play store and gmail app.

  • I ve just got this phone from a chinese retail web store. Build quality is average. Camera and FM radio works excellent. Device runs really smooth without major issues. Price/performance ratio is cool. Howewer, there is so much localised Chinese stuff inside and I can not get to work Google Play on this device. Right now this looks like a major con.

  • please update us more about this phone..thank you..

  • I like this phone, its power can survive more than a whole day of constant usage. Just checking more info about this phone as I bought one just last week from merimobiles.com. Thanks.

  • I just bought one the phone is very good for the price

  • Does it have Digital compass?. i.e Gyro sensor to show the direction in GPS?

  • can anyone please make a review?

  • I have gsm and wi-fi problem. The gsm drops from 4 to 2 line just by itself. Wi-fi is weak.

  • The phone's design and performance is good. However, it has Chinese applications, a chinese store and does not come with google play, gmail or google maps. Even after installation, gmail won't open.

  • please update us your reviews/opinions about this phone..

  • I've just ordered this phone and delivery is due tomorrow or latest Monday. Where can you buy a 5" dual-sim card smartphone with dual camera for about US$200? It's specs beat big brands names at 1/3 the price. Moreover, most phones are all made in Taiwan or China anyway. Will post a hands-on experience in due course.

  • It says in the specification: MAX supports 64GB Class 10 Micro SD Memory Card (TF-Card) Does it support SDXC or SDHC card?

  • Can anyone tell me about battery life? Can it hold any decent amount of time?

  • Well for the price it is best deal for now.
