This is a budget dual-SIM phone built around a Snapdragon MSM8225Q quad-core chipset clocked at 1.2 GHz, paired with just 1GB of RAM and 4GB of onboard storage. That's tight by today's standards, though a microSD slot lets you add up to 32GB more. The 4.5-inch IPS LCD screen keeps things compact, and it runs Android 4.1 Jelly Bean out of the box.
Lenovo A706 price in Malaysia starts from RM515, putting it firmly in entry-level territory. The 5MP rear camera comes with autofocus and LED flash, while the front camera is a basic VGA unit, fine for the occasional low-res selfie or video call but not much else.
Battery capacity sits at 2000 mAh, modest even for its era, and at 130g the phone is light and easy to carry. Connectivity covers dual-band Wi-Fi, GPS with A-GPS, and Bluetooth 3.0, plus HSPA data speeds for basic browsing.
