Out of the box, you have a dated Android 4.4 KitKat, so be sure to update ASAP to give the whole UI a makeover. After updating, you now have Android 5.0.2 Lollipop with Vibe UI 2.0 on top. I’m not exactly a fan of the Vibe UI but the customization done by Lenovo are handy. The major change is the omission of the app drawer with all the app icons readily available, similar to iOS.
Lenovo have a number of pre-installed apps. Google apps are on-board to get you started with their services, the SHAREit and SYNCit apps are here too. There are also a few games ready for play, a music-streaming service called Guvera, and a suite of social apps. These apps are not exactly bloatware but if you won’t be needing them, you can simply uninstall.
The Vibe UI 2.0 is a standard custom Android skin that just wants to give the Lenovo smartphone a different look in a sea of Androids.
Equipped with an 8-megapixel rear shooter and a 2-megapixel selfie camera, imaging on the A6000 Plus is nothing but typical. The camera UI is uncluttered and friendly to use. There are no fancy tricks here aside from some settings, HDR and a few color filters.
The 8-megapixel rear camera with an LED flash takes stills quickly but doesn’t focus fast enough. Color reproduction is somewhat muted and there’s a lot of sharpening going on. A lot of manufacturers are now resorting to excessive sharpening to be able to produce a sharp image. You may check out the sample below:
#gallery-1 { margin: auto; } #gallery-1 .gallery-item { float: left; margin-top: 10px; text-align: center; width: 25%; } #gallery-1 img { border: 2px solid #cfcfcf; } #gallery-1 .gallery-caption { margin-left: 0; } /* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes/media.php */The selfie camera is at 2-megapixel with decent quality. Check out these two selfies, one taken outdoors, and another indoors at night. There’s a drastic difference between the two due available light. The front camera will suffice for video calling but not enough for quality selfies.
#gallery-2 { margin: auto; } #gallery-2 .gallery-item { float: left; margin-top: 10px; text-align: center; width: 33%; } #gallery-2 img { border: 2px solid #cfcfcf; } #gallery-2 .gallery-caption { margin-left: 0; } /* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes/media.php */Meanwhile, video resolution maxes out at 720p but quality seems to be at 360p. Also, the captured audio is nothing to write home about. Here’s a sample clip, check it out for yourself:
There’s a twin speaker at the back with Dolby Digital Plus enhancement. It would have been great if these are stereo speakers though. Nevertheless, the speakers delivers good sound but with middling volume.

The article needs a lot of editing. I haven’t read a lot from yugatech so I don’t know if this is par for the course here.
But the writing could surely be better. I came here interested in the phone and the review, but I ended up not finishing it because of the writing.

To have a smart phone under 10K is great… Much be more awesome if the cost is 5K to give more meaning to the “budget and practicality” :)
