So, what does the Lenovo Phab2 Pro, the first Project Tango phone, have to offer? It boasts a larger-than-life 6.4in Quad HD display (2560x1440), making it an inch taller and half an inch wider (179.8 x 88.6 x 10.7mm) than the already pretty hefty iPhone 6s Plus, and weighs almost double at 259g. It’s 10.7mm thick, boasts an aluminium unibody, and will be available to buy in two colours – ‘champagne’ gold and ‘gunmetal’ grey.
Now we’ve got the design out of the way, it’s time to move onto what’s really interesting about this smartphone – what’s on the inside. In terms of processing power, the Phab2 Pro boasts an octa-core 1.8GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 652 processor coupled with a whopping 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage. If that’s not enough for you, then you’ll be happy to know that the Phab2 Pro also features a Micro-SD card slot to expand the built-in storage of the smartphone by up to 256GB. It also has a huge 4050mAh battery to power all that technology, and features 2.4x ‘turbo charging’ so you won’t have to wait for hours for it to charge.
The smartphone also has three built-in microphones and Dolby Audio Capture 5.1 support, providing users with the ability to capture 5.1 channel surround sound audio complete with spatial capture and noise reduction. This provides videos and audio recordings with higher quality audio than with many other leading smartphones.
However, it’s in the camera department that the Phab2 Pro really comes into its own, as that’s where most of the Project Tango tech is housed. There are a whopping four cameras on the Phab2 Pro – a front facing 8Mp camera capable of 1080p video, along with a main rear-facing 16Mp camera capable of 2160p video, a depth-sensing camera and a motion camera (both also on the rear). As explained above, the special rear-camera setup enables positional tracking capabilities, along with motion tracking, depth perception and area learning, making it possible for the Phab2 Pro to analyse and map your environment, and even detect surfaces and obstacles.
