Lenovo takes a dig at Apple, possibly hints at Android L with September 4 invite

Lenovo, like everyone else, is hosting an event next month to introduce the Vibe X2. Invites have been sent out for an event on September 4 during IFA 2014. There is a comedic part and an interesting part to Lenovo’s invite. The comedic part has to do with Apple and its September 9 event and the interesting part involves Android L.

What you are looking at above is the invitation for Apple’s event being held on September 9. The caption is “Wish we could say more.” Lenovo responded to this by remaining mum on any details for their event, too. The Lenovo event’s invitation says “We can’t say anything either.” Lenovo is saying what everyone else says: of course you cannot say anything. That is the whole purpose of hosting an event. These companies all stay quiet in the run up to the date or release a teaser (or seven).


The interesting part of Lenovo’s invitation is the lollipop. This could be to indicate that the next version of Android will be named Lollipop. Google has yet to give the upcoming version of Android a name, but lollipop certainly seems likely. We found out from last night’s WiFi certification that the Vibe X2 would have at least Android 4.4.2; therefore, Lenovo could be implying that a software update with Android L will arrive at launch or as soon as possible.
