The company has also said that the Lenovo K8 Plus will be powered by a battery that will last for one complete day.

    Social media teasers by the company show bokeh effect shots, which hints to the fact that the K8 Plus may have dual cameras, similar to the ones on the Lenovo K8 Note. There is no further information about the camera on the Lenovo K8 Plus.

    The launch date is fast approaching and all information will be revealed when Lenovo launches the K8 Plus.
