LeTV Le1S unboxing and hands on

Wednesday, 11 November 2015 at 15:16

Unboxing, hands on and first impressions of the all new LeTV Le1S Android smartphone. Keep reading for the unboxing video and my first impressions.

Over this past year I have test some great phones and one of the best came from LeTV. In my possession I have the LeTV Le 1 (read the review here) and the LeTV Le Max, but it was the Le 1 which really knocked my socks off and rewrote the rule book for affordable smartphones.

A few weeks ago, LeTV announced the all new LeTV Le1S a phone which builds on what’s great about the original Le 1 but adds a new high-end build and updated features to the phone while costing less.

From the front the LeTV Le 1S looks almost identical to the Le 1 with a 5.5-inch display and a design that looks like the phone has no bezels. The rest of the design is much improved though as is build. The Le 1S features a unibody all alloy body, and a rounder profile for a slightly more comfortable feel.

The all new metal body also has a new location for the 13 mega-pixel F2.0 rear camera and comes with the addition of a fingerprint scanner. The sensor on the fingerprint scanner has a mirror finish, so its possible that it will double up as a mirror so you can use the main camera for selfies too.

Under the hood the LeTV Le 1S is pretty similar to the original Le 1 but with a more powerful 2.2Ghz Helio X10 chipset. The rest includes 3GB RAM, 3000mAh battery, 5.5-inch display and LeTV’s EUI ROM based on Android 5.0.2.
