Lenovo Phab 2 Pro Specs

The Lenovo Phab 2 Pro features Google’s Project Tango, a tech platform that allows a device to “understand” its position and orientation through it’s host of sensors. Technically, the phone can sense the world around it similar to how we do it. The Phab 2 Pro is equipped with depth perception and 3D motion tracking sensors that Tango uses to create improved experiences for some pretty interesting services like augmented reality, indoor mapping and next generation gaming.

The phone itself features an Aluminum alloy unibody build topped with a 6.5 inch Quad HD IPS display with 2.5D curved glass. Under the hood, you have an octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 652 paired with an Adreno 510 graphics chip and 4GBs of RAM. The main camera uses a 16MP sensor with PDAF, plus depth perception and motion tracking sensors; while the front uses an 8MP sensor with an aperture of f/2.2. The rest of the specs include dual SIM capabilities via a hybrid SIM slot, Dolby Audio Capture 5.1 and Dolby Atmos support, and a reasonably large 4,050 mAh battery.

    Hello. My lenovo phab2 pro , do not have fm radio

    Just bought PHAB2 Pro last week (Feb 24) despite a couple of negative reviews regarding audio/video syncing problems for YT. I just kind of assumed (and hoped) those were isolated cases and that maybe the latest batch of PHAB2 Pros wouldn’t have this problem. Unfortunately I was wrong as mine also has this issue. Major bummer for a phone that showcases Dolby Atmos speakers. I dug out some information from a couple of forums and found that turning off Dolby fixes the problem a bit. YT video/Audio are still out-of-sync but not as bad as when Atmos is activated.

    Another issue I’m having is the FM radio feature is missing despite Lenovo releasing the specs with FM radio. A lot of other users are also wondering about this.

    Since the phone’s been out for several months now, I’m wondering if someone out here with similar issues have found some workarounds for both FM radio and YT video/audio syncing. Or if you’ve contacted Lenovo and received any feedback. 

    Any kind of help would be appreciated!
