LeTV rumoured to launch 50-inch smart TV at $490

Remember a few months back when we got some eye’s on time with the very attractive LeTv? Well, if rumours are accurate the company could be looking to reduce the price to just 2999 Yuan in a price war against the new Xiaomi TV.

Xiaomi have target on their back. First Meizu goes on an all out price war against the company by slashing prices of its MX2 quad-core phone, and now online video streaming service LeTV are on the war path!

According to rumours LeTv are planning to launch the X50, a scaled down version of the X60 we saw here, with reduced price of 2999 Yuan. If this is the case then it is likely that the X50 will get the same hardware as it’s bigger brother meaning a 1.7Ghz Qualcomm S4 prime CPU, Adreno 320 graphics and 2GB RAM. In comparison the Xiaomi TV offers a smaller 47-inch 3D display and more powerful Snapdragon 600 processor, and even has LeTv built-in!

An interesting battle, one which could burn some very important bridges.
