[QUESTION] Confused about Chipset and Processor of Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus - Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus Questions & Answers

I have a Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus which I bought about a month ago. According to info provided by Lenovo, this device has Qualcomm Snapdragon 616 processor, but as far as I can see in build.prop, it's got MSM8916 chipset.
But, MSM8916 is chipset of Snapdragon 410!!
How's that possible? Can Snapdragon 616 have MSM8916 chipset instead of MSM8939v2?? (which should be there actually)
Please clarify my confusion.

same here..

Be sure that the ROM/Software is in stock condition .... if yes then all is well..
..
if it is in custom or rooted condition(anyhow it can be unroot easily)..
then the MTK device can be FULLY(100% from nails to head) modify..

Where does MTK come in here? Its a snapdragon device and I'm on stock ROM (rooted now, but was unrooted when I wrote that post)

I think they used the same firmware as they used on the Lenovo Vibe K5 non-plus and they forgot to change this value on build.prop ,but if you check CPU-X it will show you the real cpu

any screenshot? is the bug fixed after recent update??

Non-plus version has snapdragon 415, not 410

You can confirm your chipset in benchmark apps in PlayStore. Having MSM8916 in your build.prop doesn't mean anything. Lenovo uses AOSP codes built in system, and they can use codes from MSM8916 for MSM8929 (SD 415, Vibe K5 A6020a40) or MSM8939 (SD 616, Vibe K5 Plus A6020l35 or A6020a46), for example, even being different chipsets.

Wonderful!! Is this aimed to save Environment

use CPUz to get more detailed hardware info as it based on hardware detection , forget about whats written in build.prob ,, it can be changed as they might flashed stock firmware of vibe k5 in vibe k5 plus ...

You are wrong. L36 has SD616. The one with SD415 is the A40.
