Late last month LeTV held a special offer where their phones could be bought at great prices. Shop.GizChina.Com managed to get a limited number of LeTV Le One Pro during the offer and are selling them now for $299.99.
The LeTV Le One Pro usually retails for as much as $529.99 outside of China. That’s a very high price, but then again you do get some of the best hardware available for a smartphone of today.
LeTV set the bar pretty high with the Le One Pro building the device with a full alloy body, 5.5-inch 2560 x 1440 2K display, Snapdragon 810, 4GB RAM and amazing 13 mega-pixel F2.0 rear camera.

It’s a killer phone and at just $299.99 this is a killer deal. There are only limited number of of the Le One Pro available so we suggest you act fast to bag a flagship bargain. Also keep in mind that the Chinese warehouse of Shop.GizChina.Com is on Chinese National holiday until 5th October.
Sad to see that Gizchina is changing to a promotion site for their own shop.
Can you see they slashed the price almost in half?! They always did some articles about crazy deals and price slashes… Now don’t act so arsh just because it’s their own shop: if they won’t say this, who will?! Coolicool’s forum?!
I agree but let them share their promotions in their shop’s page and maybe through a newsletter.
This is a news blog and not a “find the best offers” blog
if you don’t find interesting you can just avoid to read it the article.
But just because you don’t find it interesting then it doesn’t mean someone else does.
they are not flooding the blog with articles like this one to justify a complain.
I’ve actually spotted the deal few days ago and I’ve mentioned in my comments a couple of times already because it’s something that people could be interested in it.
I mean, we are talking of a 50% off, and not just a 20$ discount.
Agree! I did not see anyone complain on those “giz20” discount Coupon articles for other stores.
On a different note, maybe it’s a good time for @Andi to register a mother company, the way Google did with Alphabet.
@disqus_hFOS6jWFnn:disqus But ut isn’t a unique offer, most of the international resellers have this offer.
I get why they promote their own shop, but that’s not why i follow gizchina, i follow gizchina to know the latest chinese mobile trends and phones.
They need to monetize somehow or do you think the hard labour that goes into reviews and having a site up and running with always fresh content is not a full time job that is entitled to a wage?
lol, big bezels… and poor snapdragon 810 make 65k antutu test again…. 51k…… 44k…. 37k…… 33k shame performance with high temperature
heating problem, old gpu ,keep it to yourself
there are new phones, beside that LeTV One with the helio x10 chip cost 250$ and do almost the same.
we dont need 2k screen and more then 3GB, and about the internal memory for most of us , 16GB is enough and there are phones that has sd card slot. maybe not on the Letv one but you understand……
lol, really with extra bezels not need 2k
In sale its about 180€ check out kimovil
Link, please! 🙂
Kimovil.com and then search for letv
Yes, but I guess you are talking about LeTV S1 16GB, but Andi offers LeTV S1 PRO 32GB. These are two different mobiles. 😉
I know
Kimovil is the best site to use when looking for prices!
If you comment on phones like this you will never ever find a good phone and that I can can guarantee you. Please read some info before posting. First of all After the last update the heating problem is not a problem anymore. Second, what is an “old GPU to you”… Third, The Helio is nice but but not perfect either. Forth “we” is you speaking. I don’t say I need it but there are more then enough people that want that much ram and that resolution. Fifth, I read about more then enough people that found 32GB a problem because there is no SD card reader. That’s why a lot of people want a 64GB.
Heating issues will always be a problem with SD810 because it is such a poorly designed chip set. What the software updates have done is killed the performance of the chip to keep it from overheating. But even that hasn’t completely worked, eventually I could see massive hardware failures from phones equipped with SD810 due to the overheating. It’s a chip (along with its baby brother SD615) I personally would stay far away from.
Yes thats true but the heating issues occur when the chip is being pressured. So brand just downclocked them a bit in order to have a functional chip. Not the best solution but a solution that works. I think it will only give massive hardware failures when you keep on putting pressure to them, I work with phones for years now and real issues such as them mostly occur when the are being pressured. But like you said it still not a very effective design even the 2.1 has the same issues. But then again the Helio X10 is known for having some GPS issues. Thats mainly what I ment. If you can only be negative about theses phones you will never find one that suits you.
I have an X10 and have no issues whatsoever with GPS and have heard of no one that has them either. The older Mediatek chips used to have GPS issues, but the newer 64 bit chips solved the issues.
I know because I have an older Mediatek Phone like that. I read that the Letv X600 had the issue just a a Meizu did. Just Google it and you will find the answer 😉
I own the Meizu Mx5 and use GPS everyday for work. I have used it in 8 different countries (Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia, USA, Malaysia, Singapore, China and Taiwan) and have had no issues.
The 32 bit Mediatek SoC’s were terrible with GPS, I could never keep a signal. The newer 64 bit SoC’s are excellent.
Quote from XDA “Guys, i got a LeTV x600 with the same Soc, Helios X10.
It locks in 15+ sattelites and the signal strengh is great, however it has a nasty bug/problem. When driving/in motion, the accuracy error goes high, not the usual 2-3 meters. At 50km/h may be 25m, at 80km/h it’s 35 meters of accuracy error. It appears that Meizu MX5, with the same X10, has the very same problem! This cause some delays and jumping on map apps.
Can anyone here please test this bug? You can use GPS Test (by default the error is in feet) or other GPS testing app that has accuracy error. Or, simply go to Engineer Mode > Location > YGPS > Information, the font is small there, so be carefull while driving!
Thanks in advance for this guys!”
I haven’t seen this problem yet and I use it all the time, I also know several people with this phone who don’t have this issue so maybe it is just a Europe thing. It works excellent in the US and Asia.
Yeah hahaha I hope for you it’s only Europe but then again. If there was a problem you would already noticed it 😉
Actually checked with a few friends who are tech journalists in Germany, France, Poland and Italy. All of them used the MX5 GPS without issues when they were testing it.
With all due respect to you and your friends, most smarphones reviewers don’t know how to review GPS performance.
Typical GPS review:
“GPS lock is fast, so hummm yeah it must be good”
Hummmm, no.
Except these people review phones and GPS on a daily basis, it is their entire lives. But nice try.
Well, do they have a site? Because, then, i’ll be very interested.
I have the redmi note 2 and letv x600 and can confirm the above gps problems..
I guess some people think that when i write these comments, i’m trolling. But then even with the THL 5000, i had total crap GPS performance, the kind that makes you pull all of your hair on situations where you really have to find the damn place, yet some people said it was ok for them. Maybe there’s something on my car’s windshield that messes with the GPS. Funny it didn’t do a thing to a Samsung S4, where it was the smothest GPS i’ve seen.
I don’t know, how there are so different opinions on the same device.
Again, i’m not saying the GPS on the x600 sucks, but there are certain situations where it leaves something to be desired. I want my next phone to have a non-mediatek chip.
I’m waiting anxiously for balco’s friends review site, as most reviews out there are amateur at best. Nowadays, anyone can get a phone and upload a “review” to youtube.
Other people have those phones and confirm there are no issues….
Balco, i’m still waiting for your total uber mega ultra 13370R friend’s review site.
Nice try.
I’m still waiting for me to care.
Ok, so please next time, don’t troll the discussion. It only discredits you.
Says the guy who is trolling….
Actually this quote is mine. I think people that say it has NOT GPS issues, are driving on highways (with no roads nearby to confuse the maps app) or are slow drivers 😛
On a city center with many streets nearby, driving at medium/fast speed it has problems. At least MY phone has this problem. I think that if you use on USA, where cities aren’t “tight” as in Europe, you won’t have such problems.
Normally, GPS has an accuracy error of 2-3 meters no matter your speed, not with this phone, higher the speed, high the accuracy error. I clearly can see the big blue bubble (which is the accuracy error diameter) on MAPS.ME app and other apps too. No wonder, the app doesn’t know if i went straigth ahead or took a left turn. After a while it corrects tough.
Now, i’m not saying the GPS is unusuable, no, not that, but still it has problems. and enough to make me pull some hair. An user said that MX5 has this high accuracy error problem, so it must be a Helios X10 problem.
Hahaha funny you read my post about it here 😛
Oh, even tough they could pay more attention to us, like fixing more bugs, i’m still a LeTV fan! So i read everything about it.
Just back from a trip to Myanmar and Indonesia. GPS worked great in those counties as well… And Nigeria where I currently live
how is it with lagging etc like Andy described earlier here with his review of MX5?
Andi didn’t review the MX5, Yash did. I never experienced any lag with it and neither did anyone on the Meizu forums I belong too which leads me to believe the culprit was an app he was using.
Yes roni24. I couldn’t agree more. That’s madness go have a screen more than full hd. Unless you’ve got a vr headset. Even then, no point to it. Your TV screen is likely to be a 40 inch full hd panel. Yet your 6 inch phone is 2k. Madness. Plus sd810 is a poor chipset.

Oooh and this is not the only thread I read about it. People in Europe seem to have the most issues with it.

Is there any way we can see all the news on this site by date or something? The layout is quite similar to “The Verge”, and is pain to navigate!
Good deal, btw!
Totally agree with you! I just press on the “Phones” button in the navigation button above.

No B20 🙁
why?
I read on XDA that you can unlock this 😉
Did you read you could unlock it for this specific phone or for a different phone? There is no way to unlock bands if the phone doesn’t have the required antennae to begin with.
Yes it’s for the specific phone. The Pro and the Max. You can find it on XDA 😀
link?
If I send a link it will get blocked until the moderators check it 😉

Aaah perfect! Well here is the link then: http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/general/guide-twrp-root-gapps-letv-s1-pro-t3150782/page20
And yes I know about the antenna 😉 It doesn’t just work on every phone 😉
I read through that thread an no one can provide any definitive proof that they are actually using Band 20. It would be great for those of you in Europe if this does actually work, but I see these posts on every new phone released and most of them turn out to be false. I would be cautious if your buying this phone with the intention that it will work on 20.
I’ll probably get one of these phones in a few weeks and I will try it myself. I’m not buying it for the 20 band because here I can also use a few other bands on 4G.
That’s good just don’t want to see anyone lose money, these phones can be expensive. You will love this phone though, it is very good.
Yeah indeed haha! I hope so to 😉

For Indian buyers, among gearbest, honorbuy, aliexpress websites, which one is safe to get fast delivery of Leyv one pro. It is unfortunate that gizchina shop do not ship to India. Please suggest and help.

The difference betwen pro and normal version is
2k/1080p screen
4gb/3gb RAM
sd810/ x10 CPU
?
I’m not sure it’s worth to pay extra 100$ for that ?
