Lenovo rolls out mobile phones in Phl

MANILA, Philippines - Believing there’s always room for another brand in an ever-growing mobile phone market, Lenovo Mobile Communications Technology Ltd. has entered the Philippine mobile phone industry to offer mobile phones for tech-savvy and fashion-oriented teenagers and young professionals.

Lenovo Mobile, China’s leading mobile phone manufacturer, will sell the units at P10,000 and below through local partner Open Communications Inc. and its more than 2,000 retail outlets nationwide.

Hyacinth Serrano, Open Communications business unit head, said they want to capture at least 30 percent of the low- to mid-range market by the end of 2012 on the strength of Lenovo’s brand and product image.

“Worldwide, Lenovo is known for its stylish, affordable computer and mobile phone products that don’t compromise quality and durability. The phones boast of world-class hardware and software technology that Lenovo is known for,” Serrano said.

Serrano said Lenovo phones use a single manufacturing platform for all parts and components to ensure utmost quality and reliability. The mobile phones also go through several quality control tests similar to what Lenovo laptops and desktop PCs are subjected to.

The new Lenovo mobile phones that will be rolled out this month are the A60 Android touch-screen phone, A336 gamer phone, E156 bar phone, Q330 QWERTY phone, Q350 Internet phone, and S800 stylish phone.
