Good opportunity to take advantage of the current crazy currency fluctuations going on with the GBP.

I just snagged a silver LeTV LE1 Pro (Snapdragon 810, 64gb ROM, 4gb RAM, USB-C, 5.5" quad-HD display) for £121.46, or $222.30 at current exchange rates.

The trick is to go to the French version of Coolicool and change the currency to GBP before checking out.

I checked out using PayPal and am using my BankWest Zero credit card for fee-free currency conversion.

Add the coupon code FVE3SUS for another £2.07 discount.

Absolutely amazing phone for $220ish - Nexus 6 specs for about a third of the price. Has a decent dev community on xda-developers too: http://forum.xda-developers.com/leeco-le1-pro.

There's probably some dodgy cashback available too but I don't support those sites.

Enjoy!

    Great find….but i thought the free delivery is france only? you can also get the op3 and mi5 ($370 ex del.) If you search for it.

  • d-hunterz on 25/06/2016 - 10:52

    Cant get it shipped to OZ?

    • tessel on 25/06/2016 - 11:44

      6.49 GBP for standard shipping or 17.30 GBP for DHL. Insurance is an extra 10.53 GBP. With DHL and insurance works out to be about $267 AUD, $247 by DHL no insurance or $227 standard shipping no insurance.

    its a good brand… i have Letv 1s and been using it for about 3-4 months and its great so far, fast n responsive always..

  • Balls on 25/06/2016 - 11:07

    got this exact model few days ago

    cant recommend it hard enough, at this price its a steal, the build quality is top tier, mine came with a clear Letv case but no screen protector on strangely

    the Le Hifi sound chip is shivering good, i didnt even want to take my earphone off, 93k on antutu(custom stock rom performance mode), the SD810 was not hot, warm at most like most phones when pushed, and i was pushing it to see if it heats up, played games, constantly switch between heavy apps, the only time it got the warmest was benchmarking and even that wasnt even very warm, outside of that any normal apps use wont heat it up. got nearly 5 hrs of SoT with low brightness, but constant use, youtube streaming in background while on several apps at once

    • shmahoo on 25/06/2016 - 11:08

      I guess that's a reasonably positive review!

    • d-hunterz on 25/06/2016 - 11:09

      did you buy it from aliexpress $290.00?

      • Balls on 25/06/2016 - 11:14

        no i got it from everbuying, mine was the US version, theres China version, Leeco sold this phone officially in US, abit minor presence, cannot install US roms on CN and vice versa

        • chromium on 25/06/2016 - 12:54

          Which carrier are you using?

        • furythree on 25/06/2016 - 21:52

          is this one the China version or US version? what do you mean you cant install US rom? you can at least flash it with a completely custom rom though right?

    • Balls on 25/06/2016 - 11:31

      also the SD810 is v2.1 i cross checked in benchmark apps (adreno430 is 630mhz)

    • illumination on 25/06/2016 - 23:25

      Such a positive review but no pos vote??

  • Balls on 25/06/2016 - 11:19

    6.0 MM rom is out but in beta, the only downside being people didnt like stock rom(EUI), i have no problem with it, there are decent custom rom support, MIUI, Cm12 AOSP but mostly got minor bugs due to phone still relatively new, best rom is Cuaco92 custom stock which im on.

    hey 5 + , I am still wondering if you can get this deliverd to oz?

  • chromium on 25/06/2016 - 12:45

    Hmm I just ordered one of these and now I'm thinking it doesn't support Telstra 4G. I wasn't expecting 4GX, but I want some sort of LTE.
    Anyone using this on Telstra?

    • Balls on 25/06/2016 - 13:27

      Im using 2 sims voda and telstra on it,…telstra is much faster than the voda sim but not sure which mhz its using. Both on 4g

      • chromium on 25/06/2016 - 13:31

        Hmm ok thanks. Yours is the US version though. I'm assuming this is Chinese. I don't want to be stuck on 3G. Not sure what to do.

        • Balls on 25/06/2016 - 14:46

          i think there may be chance its US, i didnt expect mine to be US and it was shipped from China strangely, the entire box and everything inside was in proper english.

  • The J man on 25/06/2016 - 12:47

    Great price for the specs.

    This is important info though, might have trouble with 4G here in Oz (due to the bands used by our telcos)?

    Networks: GSM 850/900/1800 / 1900MHz, WCDMA 850/900/1900/2100, FDD-LTE B1 / B2 / B3 / B4 / B5 / B12 / B17 / B25 / B26, Supports 2G & frequencies 3G & 4G LTE

    Got that from the OP's link.

  • fchis on 25/06/2016 - 12:59

    looks like the silver color is gone! it's 131 pounds now for the silver one.

  • chromium on 25/06/2016 - 13:03

    So no band 7?
    Other sites say it does band 7, but on this site it says it doesn't. Might have to cancel.

    • fchis on 25/06/2016 - 13:23

      might be eu version is different.

  • Doy on 25/06/2016 - 13:39

    Anything the Redmi Note 3 has over this apart from potential battery life?

    • chromium on 25/06/2016 - 13:41

      Fingerprint scanner. I smashed the screen on mine, I was going to get another, but thought I'd check this out. Hoping it works on ok Telstra. The Redmi Note 3 works fine on 4G on Telstra

      • Doy on 25/06/2016 - 13:43

        Wonder if this has Double Tap To Wake. In my opinion, it needs either Fingerprint or DTTW to be a smooth experience

        • j03 on 25/06/2016 - 15:38

          although subjective, why does it need to have Fingerprint or DTTW to be a smooth experience????

        • Doy on 25/06/2016 - 16:51

          @j03: Totally subjective. I found that when screens started getting much past 5 inch, consistently handling the narrow edges of a phone for the lock button was a huge downgrade VS just being able to put your hands where they would normally be during use (either double tapping the screen, thumb on home button, or index finger on the back). It feels incredibly more intuitive, and I don't think I'd be in a hurry to get a phone that has neither.

    • furythree on 26/06/2016 - 00:42

      isnt redmi note 3 only a snapdragon 6xx processor?

      • chromium on 26/06/2016 - 09:49

        Yeah but the 650 and 810 and pretty close performance wise

        • furythree on 26/06/2016 - 23:39

          omg thats why people are so eager for the 650 phones. i had no idea and kept dismissing them

          argh, i feel like i missed so many deals

  • ufsta on 25/06/2016 - 17:04

    Does it have a fingerprint scanner and does it work on Optus 4g?

    My LG G4 just died yesterday and I am still on contracting and needing a new phone now

    • Doy on 25/06/2016 - 18:02

      If you want a fingerprint scanner, I would go Redmi Note 3. Currently using on Optus 4G :~)

  • Jamesx on 25/06/2016 - 20:37

    28degree card showed 240Aud for 121 GBP
    A bit off 220aud exchange rate

    • chromium on 25/06/2016 - 21:30

      Yeah same here. Getting ripped off on the exchange rate.

    • samehada on 26/06/2016 - 00:30

      don't worry, your transaction won't get posted to your account until Monday or Tuesday and will be updated with the new exchange rate.

  • illumination on 25/06/2016 - 23:28

    Considering the votes that this one got, this should really have more positive votes..

    • chromium on 26/06/2016 - 09:40

      The jury is still out on the 4G capabilities of this one. No band 7 would be bad

  • chromium on 27/06/2016 - 21:01

    Argh. I emailed them asking about cancelling it straight after I ordered,
    I just got an email saying they sent it this morning and it only supports bands B1/B2/B3/B4/B5/B12/B17/B25/B26
    So useless to me on Telstra, unless I'm happy with 3G, which I'm not

    • Balls on 28/06/2016 - 11:21

      im 99% sure it will work fine with Telstra, given im using it now on 4g blazing fast and the HW is same

      • chromium on 28/06/2016 - 19:25

        I hope you're right :)

  • Balls on 28/06/2016 - 21:04

    ill just leave it here for anyone unlocking additional 4g bands when you guys receive the phone

    key in following in dialer without quote

    " * # * # 4636 # * # * "

    go in phone info

    scroll down and you will find a drop down menu where you can select the range of bands, there are quite alot so try it all and test speeds

    • chromium on 29/06/2016 - 06:55

      Is band 28 and 7 there?

      • Balls on 29/06/2016 - 09:33

        use this for B7, seems to be in it but needs to be turned on, B7 sits in CDMA but my phone likes to stick onto B3 for Telstra for some reason so i cant verify.

        " * # * # 9439 # * # * "

  • xyron on 29/06/2016 - 11:51

    charge went through on my BankWest Zero card, was charged $227, bit disappointing since current exchange rate translates to closer to $219, but still a bargain. look forward to getting it!

    • chromium on 30/06/2016 - 12:06

      $227 on 28 Degrees as well

      • Jamesx on 01/07/2016 - 21:07

        me too
        I tried to buy it from Aliexpress, was cancelled 5 times! this is cheaper anyway…

  • Balls on 30/06/2016 - 13:08

    also, you guys gotta take into account the number of towers, for example b3 has over 1000+ towers in NSW alone vs b7 38 towers, i did a search in my vicinity on the phone with LTE discovery app and couldnt not find any b7 tower around so thats one reason my phone did not latch onto b7

    • chromium on 02/07/2016 - 22:49

      I tried using this app the other day and couldn't find any information about bands.

  • samehada on 11/07/2016 - 11:42

    Has anyone received their phone yet? Coolicool service is shocking, it has been so long and item has not even been dispatched yet.

    • xyron on 11/07/2016 - 12:32

      unfortunately mine has been marked as "shipped" but the tracking number just shows "pre-advised". i am hesitant to initiate a return via paypal as i really want the phone. i'll hang on for another couple of weeks to see what transpires.

      • samehada on 11/07/2016 - 13:16

        same for my order and I am hesitant to lodge dispute as well.

        • xyron on 09/08/2016 - 08:39

          Finally got a refund. Disappointing as I was really hoping to get the device.

  • chromium on 29/07/2016 - 16:16

    Finally got mine this morning. It's a pretty impressive device. Especially for $220.
    It's the US version, which sadly means no CM13 yet. It works fine on LTE on both optus and telstra. Obviously not their latest and greatest networks though

  • [Deactivated] on 06/08/2016 - 09:15

    Got mine, started getting pop-ups, ads

    • samehada on 09/08/2016 - 09:44

      I hope you don't get some bonus spyware or malware integrated with the ROM. Maybe try to do a clean flash of the device.

  • xyron on 09/08/2016 - 19:49

    I have an unused gel case and glass screen protector for one of these, obviously no use for me since I'm not receiving the phone. Happy for someone in Melbourne to take them off my hands for free if they want (so long as they meet me at my office during office hours, near Southern Cross Station) - send me a PM.

  • Jamesx on 23/08/2016 - 21:34

    My initial shipment was preadvised 4 weeks. I tried negotiations with them, responding every time but 2 days later.
    I lodged dispute and finally got them to resend again. Another 4 weeks, finally got it. Good build, much heavier, bigger and slightly thicker than my LG g2.
    Good value if it lasts for 2 years.
