Lenovo to launch fast camera phone on May 18th?

Lenovo tell us that they have a product launch on May 18th, which will have a feature that is as fast as a bulit! Another camera phone from the PC maker?

Lenovo have already entered the camera-centric market with their Vibe Shot, but another model with faster focus could be ready to launch as early as May 18th. Specifics are not yet known but the phone seems to heading to China only (at least for the start) and will feature a super fast camera.

Vivo just recently released the Vivo X5Pro with PDAF (Phase Detection Auto Focus), and it seems likely the new Lenovo device will share a similar technology allowing for extremely fast and accurate focus. If you’re not sure about PDAF then take a look at iPhone 6 camera reviews to get an idea of what the system if capable of.

If this is just an updated version of the current Vibe Shot then we also expect OIS, and a triple LED arrangement. More details later in the month.
