So which smartphone model in this gadget sale do I recommend? Lenovo A680 has the most updated specs of the bunch; I just hope Lenovo would send it Android KitKat upgrade soon. To be honest, for the same prices, you can get handsets with far better technical specifications from our local manufacturers and even from a handful of international ones. But if you're a big Lenovo fan and you must stick to the brand, the discounted A680 is the one I recommend if only because of the decent internal hardware.
