Back in April 2017 the ZUK Mobile division shut down, but Lenovo kept some of its high-profile managers./p>

Chang Cheng, the former CEO of ZUI, posted a picture of a mysterious Lenovo-branded phone with glossy back on his personal Weibo profile.
The image reveals a new Lenovo device is on its way, but it also caused controversy and confusion among ZUK fans who decided to hype over the upcoming of a successor of the ZUK Z2 that might be named Lenovo Z3.
