A slew of smartphones have already been launched this year but more handsets are expected to make way to the market soon. Rumors of a number of Lenovo smartphones including the Vibe X3 and the Vibe P1 have been doing the rounds for quite some time and now the Vibe X3 has appeared on GeekBench.

Rumors have indicated that the Vibe X3 may have a 5-inch or a 5.5-inch IPS display with 1,920 x 1,080 pixels resolution. While the latest GeekBench test results show the Vibe X3 running on a processor clocked at 1.44GHz, previous rumors have suggested that the handset may run on a 1.8GHz processor.
