What's the difference between the Lenovo A60+ and the Lenovo A65?

Both phones have the same 3.5-inch HVGA display Android 2.3 Gingerbread OS and dual-SIM feature but the Lenovo A60+ uses a touch-sensitive Android buttons instead of a physical Android buttons and comes with a 1GHz processor as opposed to the 800MHz of the Lenovo A65.

UPDATED ANTUTU BENCHMARK RESULTS " AFTER ROOTING "

Review

Lenovo A60+ Is Superb! ika nga a decent android phone with its price of 4,999 Pesos. meron siyang 1Ghz Proccessor Cortex A9, PowerVR SGX531 Ultra GPU Almost Mid end android device narin to. medyo talo lang talaga sa ram. at sa sobrang daming bloatwares aka system softwares like Google+ App, Maps, Halos 60-70 MB nalang natitira sa RAM ko. pero kung sakaling may root instructions nman na para sa device natin eh madali nalang tanggalin ang mga bloatwares and gumawa ng virtual ram para mas bumilis pa ang device natin.

Re: Lenovo A60+/A60 Pro/A60 Plus -Official Users Thread- "Waiting For Root Instructio


Hmm.. pwede siguro itry ung standard rooting procedure but i dont know if mawork siya.

1. Download device drivers in the net(di ko pa nasearch but meron na yan or you can use SDK).
2. Connect via usb.
3. Enable USB debugging in the phone.
4. Use SuperOneClick or UnlockRoot(@www.unlockroot.com).

Medyo broad lang explanation ko, but that is all I know so far kasi A60 gamit ko ngaun and iba ang rooting procedures nya.
Sana may instruction proper na kasi I want to have an A60+ soon too..
