    While pricing of Le1s is quite attractive and completely competitive, Letv has been very ambitious in pricing the LeMax Anyways good luck to them..more players in Indian market the merrier.

      First SD820 phone man, not very ambitious but just a Qualcomm taxes for using their premium product.

    LeMax is awesome as everyone knows. But does the Le1s have the power to kill Lenovo’s K4 Killer Note?

      What? Come on man, Are you kiddin me?? K4N is a fail this year!! Letv 1s is using X10 cpu and Le max is SD820, both phones will smash the shit K4 Note

        If all you are looking for in a phone is the processor, then sure Le1s is loads better than K4 Note. But K4 Note scores points over the Le1s in terms of front firing stereo speakers, dedicated slot for micro sd cards upto 128 GB, unique TheatreMax technology and VR experience, Dolby Atmos audio and NFC. Le1s also has the cons of sub-par camera performance and average battery life.

        As suck if you consider the entire package, you will see both phones have their unique set of pros and cons. There’s no use comparing just one feature, when you will be using all of them.

          The K4 Note had a great potential to be a perfect midrange phone, just like what K3 Note was last year. It has it all: great design, good set of features, good sound and display, 3gb ram, but one big letdown for most of the users: the weak cpu. I like Lenovo, that’s why I’m so disappointed they messed up this year’s K Note series. Probably will buy Redmi Note 3 Pro as an upgrade of my current K3 Note.

            I agree completely. If only Lenovo had put in a better SoC, they would have ruled the market for the year. The Redmi Note 3 Pro does feel good on paper but the SD650 is still untested. Hope, is how we manage to go from one disappointment to the next. XD

        I really hope there will be international ROM otherwise my Le One is no use to me at the moment. I am actually thinking about flashing ColorOS on my Le One.

      Hopefully, if there is, the Le Max will definitely be my next phone.

    Hey guys, I’ve just found this:
