Chinese handset maker Lenovo officially unveiled its upcoming Android flagship smartphone, the K900, back in January at the Consumer Electronics Show 2013.

Today, the folks over at UnwiredView claim that the smartphone might be released on the market as early as April 17. Lenovo K900 will be the first smartphone to come equipped with an Intel-based dual-core processor clocked at 2GHz.

The device will pack an Intel Atom Z2580 Clover Trail+ chipset, along with 2GB of RAM and 16GB of internal memory that can be further expanded up to 32GB via microSD card slot.

Another selling point of Lenovo K900 is the huge 5.5-inch full HD (1080p) display, as well as the fact that it will be powered by Android 4.2 Jelly Bean operating system out of the box.

Rumor has it that Lenovo K900 will be available for purchase for 3,000 yuan off contract, which is about $485 or €375. However, the price has yet to be finalized, so stay tuned for more updates on this one.
