BERLIN — Lenovo unveiled its new Vibe X, a fairly straightforward smartphone, at IFA Berlin on Thursday.

The 5-inch device comes with a 1,080p IPS display, a quad-core, 1.5GHz processor, a 13-megapixel camera (coupled with an unusually powerful 5-megapixel one on the front), 2GB of memory and 16GB of storage.

The specs are admirable, but they aren't the best out there. However, add in the premium polycarbonate body — which is just 6.9 millimeters thick and weighs about a quarter of a pound — and Vibe X becomes a solid lightweight contender in the crowded 5-inch Android arena.

On the software side, just like most of its new brethren, it runs Android 4.2. The Vibe X will never reach European or the U.S. shores, we've been told. Price and release date are not yet available.
