Lenovo Announces First Intel Clover Trail+ Smartphone
5.5-inch 1080p display accompanied by 13-megapixel camera.

Lenovo's 5.5-inch K900 smartphone is the first phone to integrate Intel's first dual-core Atom chip for handsets, as well as boasting the latter's Clover Trail+ platform.
Running on Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean, the K900 sports a 1080p IPS capacitive touch display that features Gorilla Glass 2. The resolution equals a pixel density of more than 400ppi (pixels per-inch).
Powered by Intel's Atom Z2580 2GHz dual-core processor and 2 GB of RAM, the K900 boasts a 13-megapixel camera that will feature a Sony Exmor BSI sensor, accompanied by a front-facing 2-megapixel camera. It'll be available with 16 GB of internal storage.
The K900 doesn't support 4G, but is compatible with GSM and 3G UMTS networks. It's scheduled for a launch in China during April, followed by India, Russia, Indonesia, Vietnam and the Philippines. A global launch should follow soon after. Pricing details, meanwhile, has yet to be detailed.
Stay tuned for our hands-on with this device.
Can this run FULL (x86) Windows 8? It has 2 gigs RAM and 16gigs storage. - Let me assume the 16 gigs can be upgraded somehow.
please make it at least 3000mah.
x86 in a phone looks better with every new phone. I do not need 4g - 3g is fine for all my browsing and messaging. But 5.5" screen is to big - SIII is to big for me and my hands are not small.
To bad you do not see good hardware in 4.3" form factor any more.
And I would like to have a choice of a good phone with dual sim and physical qwerty - but nobody makes those things instead every one makes bigger screens and that is the only thing that is changing (becouse CPUs will always progress screen size does not have to any more)

If so, I assume that will mean the battery would be easily replaceable?
once can hope.. though f it is removable one would hope tha tis just a mock up and the real phone will just have a snap in place panel, i don't want to carryu around a skrewdriver in addition to extra batteries (to be honest i already do carry around electronic tools at all times but i learned long ago i am not the norm)
looks at phone...
weird... it has an intel CPU in it... and I have had this for almost a year now O.o
Even though it looks pretty good and is rivals them in features and is extremely competitive in performance and battery life?
Intel's first phone, the Xolo X900, sold for about $400 at launch, and currently sells for just above $250. It had inferior specs (to this), and was made by Lava, who's previous "most expensive phone" sold for under $200.
Still sold like hot cakes, and wasn't a bad job by a stretch.
Finally? Google the Lava Xolo X900 and the Orange San Diego and the Motorola Razr i . Selling since April (Xolo).
It's running JB, can technically run Win 8 but you'll have to hack it or something before that i'm sure.
These countries don't have 4G, and there are some bands of 3G that are sort of like 3.7G or something, and i know this device will support them, because even Medfield did.
It runs Android 4.1.2, read the article. Atom is an x86 implementation, it's an SoC, and yes Intel's ported Android to run on x86, this was done early last year, so right now Gingerbread and ICS have x86 ports that are working. Also, since the updates are provided by Intel directly, when the update is available for one phone, everyone else gets it too. The Razr i was supposed to get JB sometime, maybe after this K900 thing goes live. I don't know, don't have the Xolo with me anymore, but when the Razr i came out i got the ICS update too.
For a comparison: http://www.anandtech.com/show/5770/lava-xolo-x900-review-the-first-intel-medfield-phone
of course, double those numbers for Clover Trail.
Medfield could pull off 2.5 days on a 1350mAh battery if used frugally, and easily a whole day with (my) normal use, with 3G and occasional Wi-Fi and gaming, etc.
What? you can fit a heatsink on the PCB itself, like Nvidia's had to do with the Tegra 4 (in fact, i assume everyone has to do that on ultra-mobile devices) . And anyway, look at the other existing Atom phones.
