Battery Life
Lenovo provides Vibe X2 2300mAh, may be one of the drawbacks to this smartphone because it feels too small for a smartphone that uses a variety of the latest technology. You do not need to worry, because the processor used by Lenovo Vibe X2 has the ability to save battery power so that the battery can last longer. This smartphone battery can not be replaced because it uses a unibody design.
One more good news, Lenovo has prepared complementary accessories, namely X2 Battery, accessories shaped like an extra case that looks like a fourth layer of Vibe X2. The function of this additional case was able to save battery power up to 75%
But when I use to try his camera to capture images, video, and its features, when the battery capacity before use is 70% then the time after being used for between 2 to 3 hours of battery capacity of 27% again.
I think that although the processor technology can save battery usage, but at present being used enough to drain the battery quickly as possible due to the small battery capacity, the battery is essentially wasteful or not it depends on its use, one of the factors that affect that screen, the smartphone you use increasingly wasteful also used batteries.
