This is LeEco’s Snapdragon 821 phone

Here are the first real photos of the Le2 from LeEco, their super phone boasting the latest Snapdragon chipset.

Earlier today, photos of the new LeEco Le2 were released by a source close to the company. The images give us the first unofficial look at the all metal flagship, and even go as far as showing partial onscreen specs.

LeEco seem to he playing it safe with the Le2 and as you can see from the images there is no dual camera feature, and the fingerprint scanner sits in the more simply position of the rear rather than under a home button on the chin.

A side shot of the Le2 is interesting though and seems to show a display that runs all the way up to the very edge of the phone, meaning that we might finally see a bezel-less device from the brand.

While images show us where to expect the cameras, and fingerprint scanner, its the partial screen images which gives us clues of what the phone is running under the hood.

Again nothing seems very out of the ordinary. The screen is a 5.5-inch 1920 x 1080 panel, there’s 4GB RAM, 32GB memory, and Snapdragon 821. Sources say cameras on the phone inlaces an 8 mega-pixel front and 16 mega-pixel rear.

We’ll have to wait until the phone’s launch to learn more, a launch that might happen on the 6th September.

    is this the phone that will have the “innovative” large bu slim battery?

      That’s a claim made for 10 years now, I can bet it won’t be the case either… I’d be happy to lose the bet thought.

    That odd-ish display size reminds me of vivo xplay 5… Dual edge screen on board?

      You can clearly see there is no dual edge on the 2nd pic, showing the side of the phone.

    This is NOT LeEco’s Snapdragon 821 phone!!!

    MSM8996 in the picture is the SD820. If it was SD821, it should have been MSM8996Pro

    Very disappointed.

    SD821 + 8GB RAM + 64/128GB ROM + 5.5-inch 1080p AMOLED would be my dream D:

      I know right. Thier prices are always good but I’m not into their UI tho. The home button that leads to the Letv app.

    Some people here commenting on the lack of 8 GB of RAM, why do you need so much RAM?

    You can easily run 10-15 apps in the background with 4 GB

      Ppl are so brinwashed they are mostly little kids – boys /teeneagers has no idea..
      I have 2GB on mine Vivo X5Pro and everything is perfect smooth..
      These kids naively thinks that amount makes the difference.. I can have 2GB and if my RAMs are faster then those slower 8GB will be worse..

    There’s really no other design language. Phones are beginning to look more and more alike..
