When LeEco’s Le 1s was launched, it was expected to do well but it hasn’t done just well, it has set new records. It has been the top seller in China since its release last October and astoundingly it sold more than two million units in just two months.
Not stopping at this, the phone has created many industry records in India as well. But what makes this phone such a huge success. Well, read below to find:
- It is one of those few brands which can boast of a trendy full-metal body for their phones. Possibly, the Le 1s is the world’s only all-metal body phone crafted with aircraft grade aluminium. On top of that, the phone features a screw-less industrial design with no visible, eye soars in the form of industrial assembling. So aesthetically, the phone is a delight.
- As far as the processor is concerned, the Le 1s is on strong turf powered by an octa-core 2.2 GHz CPU.
- It is slimmer and sleeker than its Xiaomi counterpart Redmi Note 3 by 13%.
- It comes with the latest USB Type-C connectivity port. The Le1s’ revolutionary Type C charger also makes charging quick — just 5 minutes of charge gets you 3.5 hours of talk time.
- The reversible USB Type-C connector is technologically ahead of its competitors in many ways such as it has an additional sealing and PTC protection in-between wires, which is an industry first.
- Another amazing feature that the Le 1s provides is the branded toughened glass protection- the Corning Gorilla Glass 3, a feature that only high-priced flagship phones are offering currently.
- None of its competitors offer 4K video recording.
- Those who are addicted to gaming will surely love its stunningly smooth gaming experience.
- Buyers of the Le Superphone can expect a content ecosystem to be uploaded into its android-based EUI system in the 2nd quarter of this year since the company has already signed contracts with Eros and Yupp TV. The company has inked a deal Eros Now for Video-on-demand (VOD) and with YuppTV for TV content streaming.
- And after packing-in all these features, the phone still costs USD 20 less than its Xiaomi counterpart.
