Which LeTV phone is best for you?
Well if you are on a budget then the LeTV S1 is the obvious choice. At a starting price of 1499 Yuan the device boasts a powerful chipset, good amount of RAM and features that we don’t normally associate with low-cost phones like OIS, IR Remote and USB Type C. Lollipop is a bonus too, as is the 3000mAh battery and 5.5-inch FHD display.
If you want more features and a more classy body then the LeTV S1 Pro is the phone for you. As well as a 2K display, 4GB RAM and up to 64GB memory, the Pro model gets the benefit of LeTV’s Le Hi-Fi audio, USB Type C 3.0 and 4K HDMI out.
If you want an all in one device and don’t see yourself wanting to hook your phone up to a TV then the Max is the phone to get. The larger 6.33-inch 2K panel is more than large enough to share video, and you also get a more advanced 21 mega-pixel Sony IMX230 sensor to play around with too.
Looking over the phones you will also notice that each phone as dual SIM support and versions with network support for some international locations will be available too.
So now we know all the LeTV phone details, and we have chosen the best for our use, all we need to wait for is a way to buy these flagship devices outside of China.

Pretty similar specs to the iuni u3 but a lot more expensive. Why the hell didn’t they put the 20mp camera in the 5.5 inch phone? That is just a crazy move.
Ram is up by 1gb, processor also up sd810, there is a 64gb version it’s all metal, USB type c and it’s thinner than the IUNI U3
You must be crazy because these are really great prices for the hardware you are getting.
iuni u3 doesn’t have enough frequencies too.
Looks really good on paper, but the phones need to be out for 3-4 months, so that feedback can be received.
oh I can’t wait soo much!
Anyone care to translate those WCDMA and LTE bands to tell if they include 850 and 1900?
NVM.. will work on AT&T/Cricket WCDMA but not LTE. So at least an option. Still waiting to see the exact LTE specs for the upcoming “world capable” MTK phones.
What a let down, amazing specs and they cant even push to give it a SD reader 🙁
I didn’t notice that until your comment.
Too bad.
For them…
No Samsung or Letv to me
And 800MHz (B20) fdd-LTE also NOT supported in ANY model, nor in any network-versions.
Awesome news! Now let’s wait for European availability… and according prices… 🙂
Yer Mi note Pro does too
Gorgeous. I’ll be buying the pro in gold.
meizu mx4 pro with headphone in gold vision also released .maybe you can compare and then decide which is more suit you ?
The Meizu is single sim, so it’s out…….

Hey Andi,what about video capturing ?only 1080p or 4k videos?
2k/4k @30 fps, all of them
Thanks for quick response!
Great specs: USB C, mhl, dual Sim, OIS,IR blaster,64 bit, HiFi audio and the price is ridiculously low. Missing NFC and SD slot but this is the trend anyway, we can’t really blame the last arrived.
I’d like a SD card slot too, but I’ll deal with it, I’m not going to pay 3999 CNY for one OPPO just because it supports SD card.

Le Max uses 4GB LPDDR4 RAM as well

Definitely some bonkers spec sheets here, and at least FDD-LTE support is decent on these, USB type C a nice touch too. I think the low end model is really the stand out though as any camera with OIS at this price point is a bargain, not to mention a powerful cpu and android 5.0 out the box. It is worth noting though that these aren’t slim phones though at 9.4/5mm, lets not forget the Mi Note is sub 7mm, on paper the s1 pro marginally outspecs the mi note pro (with USB type C and hdmi 4k) but on slimness and I bet on software xiaomi will still win. The max is just too big IMO.
Why they don’t put all the LTE bands in the world like the coreans?Why,why,why it always has to have some shortcomings….
Free tip for begginers:the mtk version it’s a steal,the pro you pay de snapdragon brand and the alloy THAT’S IIIIT
I would go for the MTK anyway since the snappy has overheating issues.

So the basic model S1 doesn’t come with Hi-Fi audio and none of them have NFC? NFC and lack of SD card I can live with but Hi-Fi for like $400 is probably too much for me considering I just purchased an Oppo Find 7A. I think when I get a new job I’ll save up for the S1 Pro.
According to their official site the Max version does have NFC
http://shop.letv.com/le_max/parameter.html (use google translate) under wireless connection category however the pro version seems to lack it http://shop.letv.com/le_1pro/parameter.html
Also while the pro version has MHL 3 and the Max MHL 2, they both have USB 2 and not 3 for the Pro as stated in the article

I wonder if the price is for the phone alone or if the phone will be sold with a kind of TV contract
Phone alone, if you want the streaming services that will be extra
I think the real selling price will be reseller’s,right?
haha.lets talk about doogee ,maybe it is better ,le tv ,no one in stock
doogee seems not original brand and if me ,i will prefer xiaomi ,meizu etc.
please contact us by mail for review, desoonssz@gmail.com

Wow, makes my OnePlus One look like a dinosaur! Flagship phones are becoming obsolete faster than ever before.

9,4 thick? wtf thats ugly and dont go with the time
9.4mm thick at back, about 7mm at the edges. Fine with me.
Can you light up about software also
How was that?
Yeah, I don’t want a rom that always open LeTV services…I fear it is something like this. Also I don’t think it will support multilanguages.

Finally some good dimentions for a 5.5 inch phone. We wait the same for a 4.7 flagship.

Do all version support slow motion video capturing or only S1 Max version

Any ideas if the Max will work in the US?
T-Mobile covers:
LTE Frequencies: Band 2 (1900 MHz), Band 4 (1700/2100 MHz), Band 12 (700 MHz)
HSPA+ Frequencies: Band 2 (1900 MHz), Band 4 (1700/2100 MHz)

It isn’t the perfect thing without a Sd Card Slot……for memory expansion, battery should increase, FM & Fingerprint, Gesture Controls are missing in S1 model.

810 overheater ? hmmm
Seems lack of NFC though, else will definitely squash recent release ASUS as well as will be release One+ 2. One thing for sure this phone, although is newly emerge unknown brand, will steal some cachevfrom all other phone with those bazeless elegant screen in the full fledge hardward inside without those ridiculous price tag.
