What this hardware actually means
Editorial interpretation generated from the device's self-reported fields and our SoC tier database. Cross-reference with the raw fields below; if you spot a contradiction, please tell us.
Platform & performance positioning
The lenovo A916 reports its platform as mt6592. The CPU configuration is 8-core, Cortex-A7, running up to 728 - 1365 MHz. The GPU is ARM Mali-450 MP. Without a confirmed SoC tier mapping for this platform string, we treat the device as unverified. If you're using this entry to compare against a phone you're inspecting, focus on the raw fields below rather than tier-level conclusions.
Day-to-day workload
1 GB LPDDR2 of RAM is insufficient for modern Android. Display resolution is 1280x720.
This record reflects Android API level 22 (5.1). Android 7 or older — effectively retired; very few modern apps will run, and Google Play Services support is limited.
Trust & buying notes
Because this entry runs Android 5.1, treat it as a reference for older inventory: refurb shops sometimes flash old firmware to make a device look "stock," so a modern build date with this API level is a red flag.
