Chinese smartphone maker, Lenovo has unveiled two new smartphones- Lenovo K5 Pro and Lenovo K5s in China. Both the devices were launched alongside the company's flagship handset, the Lenovo S5 Pro.

Recently, the Motorola-owned company said that it would launch new models going forward in India, but it did not state when it will bring these smartphones to the sub-continent.
