Chinese multinational tech company Lenovo is releasing a new variant for its flagship device K5 Note in India. It's an upgraded version of the model that was released back in January.

According to reports, India's new K5 Note will be sporting a 4 GB RAM. This was announced via the India-based subsidiary of Lenovo on their social networking site. Lenovo India posted a promotional image with words that say, "Tell us all the apps you'd open with the 4GB RAM of the #KILLERNOTE5."

A promotional clip was also released, showing the new variant is a smooth multitasker and has the ability to simultaneously run 32 apps. It is said that the announcement of the 4 GB RAM variant came as a surprise since consumers were expecting the Lenovo K5 Note with the 2 GB of RAM variant.

Ever since the model came out, only China received the 4 GB of RAM version. But now that it's coming to India, tech junkies based in the country can have something to look forward to.

Apart from the RAM count, the specs of the new variant are the same. As detailed on GSM Arena, the new Lenovo K5 Note will sport a 5.5-inch Full HD display with 401 ppi and resolution of 1080 x 1920 pixels. It will be equipped under the hood with MediaTek Helio P10 processor paired with the new RAM count.

It's still to be known though if Lenovo will keep the 16 GB native storage given that the RAM is now 4 GB. The company may potentially launch a 32 GB storage version. The memory space can be expanded further up to 256 GB via microSD card slot.

For its camera features, the K5 Note will carry a 13-megapixel rear camera packed with dual-LED flash. On the front is an 8-megapixel selfie camera. It will come with a fingerprint scanner and will be powered with 3,500mAh non-removable battery.

The Lenovo K5 Note 4 GB variant is expected to hit Indian market on Monday, Aug. 1.
