With an exceptional battery life to give mobile consumers peace of mind, the new VIBE smartphones feature a manual power saver switch to instantly extend battery life and an OTG (On-The-Go) Charging function to charge other USB-connected devices, such as Bluetooth headsets and portable speakers.

Power to Last
A powerful companion for the most mobile of consumers, the VIBE P1 comes packed with productivity features geared for multi-taskers and tools to keep the device secure.
The VIBE P1 comes with an impressive 5000mAh battery, one of the highest-capacity batteries in its class. Now users can be sure of a smartphone that will last them through the day with the ability to charge other phones in need of a battery boost anytime. In addition to a physical power saver switch, which instantly extends battery life and OTG (On-The-Go) Charging feature, the VIBE P1 stands out with a 24W quick charge function that can rapidly charge the phone battery.
Supporting slick and fast performance, the VIBE P1 has a 1.5GHz Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 615 64-bit octa-core processor for users to run multiple apps, surf the web and stream videos all at once. To ensure speedy and an uninterrupted surfing experience, the smartphone’s Wi-Fi Boost provides 5G WiFi support for improved Wi-Fi speed and range. The VIBE P1 can also be paired with a range of smart devices, from headsets to cameras and TVs, utilizing wireless NFC (Near-Field Communication) technology. Meanwhile, an embedded fingerprint scanner on the home button supports black screen unlock and brings about even greater convenience and security to keep the device and user privacy safer than ever before.
The VIBE P1 also offers an unexpected entertainment experience with its unrivalled audio quality: Smart PA technology boosts audio output, and it also features a sealed sound chamber for improved resonance and better bass for all sorts of multimedia needs. It comes with a13MP rear camera with fast-focus PDAF technology and a 5MP selfie camera with multiple shooting modes and beautification features.
Sporting a premium metal-and-glass design, accentuated by a slender aluminum frame (measuring just 4mm along the sides), and a subtly curved rear metallic cover for improved ergonomics, the VIBE P1 exudes exquisite craftsmanship. The screen is made of Gorillia Glass 3, a thinner and lighter iteration of Corning’s scratch- and crack-resistant protective glass.
The VIBE P1m features a long-lasting 4000mAh battery with a quick charge function which allows users to get a quick power boost when they are in a hurry. Lenovo engineered the VIBE P1m to be life proof too with its splash-proof capability via a nano-coating technology. These, coupled with a powerful MediaTek 64-bit quad-core processor and a vivid 5-inch HD screen, make the VIBE P1m a truly exceptional value-for-money device.
The VIBE P1 is available in Platinum, Graphite Grey and Gold (this version is only available in PRC), and P1m is available in Onyx Black and Pearl White.
