LeTV 1S (GOLD) 3GB/32GB Metal Unibody Smartphone $249 USD (~ $352 AUD) @Gizchina Shop

91

Seems like a fantastic price for what you get. Full metal body (minus plastic antenna caps).

Comes with fairly powerful Mediatek Helio X10 (MT6795T), an 8 Core A53 CPU and a mediocre PowerVR G6200 GPU, which isn't great for high end Android games (though I'm sure 99% of you don't care). Also has 3GB of LPDDR3 RAM and 32GB of storage (no microSD).

Display is 5.5" 1080p IPS and looks to be quite good.

Cameras are 13MP f2.0 with phase-detection autofocus, and 5MP Front (for all you selfie lovers :P)

UI is a custom job by LeTV and called EUI 5.5, based on Android 5.0.2. Comes with Google Apps.

Also the phone is dual SIM (micro+nano), which is cool.

Battery is 3000mAh with listed quickcharge (not Qualcomm obviously, may just be 5V 2A).

Also has a badass fingerprint scanner that works excellently, it powers on and unlocks in one touch. Also has IR blaster.

BANDS:

4G: FDD - LTE: B1/3/7(1800/2100/2600MHz) ,

  • Is it worth that to use ? thanks.

  • Full metal jacket. Awesome.

  • Very limited 4G bands…

    • Standard 4G bands really. Sure, it's missing 700, as many are.

  • And the linked site says the battery has 2-3 "hours" standby time (in the description)… Now that's being really honest :)

    I have a request into support for manuals.

    Arrival was was quick , i paid $2app for insurance.

    Also the usb is cool/

  • LeTV is major video streaming brand in China like NETFLIX and it's a great phone for its price, not a "cheap Chinese phone" as in some comments. But the UI is designed for streaming video (mostly in Chinese). Don't know if it's really suitable for non-Chinese users.

    • is it like netflix, being a paid service, or more like the TVpad that has shut up shop recently cos of being illegal?

      • It is like netflix, need to pay member fee for most recent contents, or 2k resolution from memory. The older contents are free. LeTV is completely legit.

        • Thanks

  • what kind of phone is this?
