LeEco Le Max review, best phablet your money can buy....!! - Device Reviews and Information

Hello guys, I am Rakesh, a tech blogger. This is my review about the LeEco ( formerly known as LeTv ) Le Max #Superphone which is said to be one the best phablet available on sale in India. The device is manufactured by the global internet giant LeEco which has an online platform with content, devices and applications.

The handset is priced at Rs 32,999/- and LeEco claims they are selling these devices at a price which is below the production cost. This is possible because they’ve partnered with various companies for their ecosystem. For now, they have partnered with Eros Entertainment and YuppTV. Also, every phone comes with 1 year worth YuppTV Premium for free.
Design and display:
The LeMax is unquestionably a good looking handset that is particularly great for those who want at a really big screen device. Its metal body gives it a premium look and feel, and the phone seems sturdy.
The front of the phone particularly looks spectacular due to the edge to edge running display, with very thin bezels. LeEco has smartly played with the front design, as you will not be able of notice the narrow bezel on side of display until you wake the screen up.
This makes the display look even bigger and the front look pretty, speaking of display quality, the 6.3-inch display with 2K resolution with 2560x1440 pixels display is a visual delight and absolutely stunning. It reproduces colours well and offers good viewing angles.
Bottom side of the phone is home to USB Type C port and speakers and the top has a slot for audio jack. The left and right sides have power key, volume keys, Wi-Fi HDMI port, and slots to accommodate SIM card.
Fingerprint Scanner
If you have big hands then you won’t face any problem in reaching the fingerprint scanner placed at the back of the phone below the primary camera. The fingerprint scanner is fast and can be used to capture photos as well.
More and more apps coming up with support for Fingerprint Scanners will make the Fingerprint Scanners more useful than they already are adding an extra level of security to the apps as well, especially apps from which you carry out monetary transactions.
Chipset, RAM, Storage.
A good display needs some good horse power to push all the those pixels, and the Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 seems to be a worthy contender. The Le Max sports a 2.0 GHz octa-core Snapdragon 810 chipset with the Adreno 430 running the graphics and the multi-tasking handled by the 4GB of LPDDR3 RAM module. Internal storage for our review unit was limited to 64GB and the smartphone does not pack in support for external storage.
During our hands-on, we noticed no lag whatsoever while browsing, opening apps and even multi-tasking.
OS, Connectivity:
Keeping the content services in mind, LeEco has done a good job with the software. Our hands-on with the device showcased software that allowed for plenty of customisations. the Le Max runs Android 5.0 (Lollipop) with the EUI (Eco User Interface) skinning that delivers plenty of useful touches that can be found throughout the UI. Like for example, the keypad grid for the lockscreen will show up on the right or the left side, depending on where you swipe up to unlock.
LeEco has literally packed in everything it could find. You get a MHL 3.0, USB Type C, 3.5mm audio jack, Wireless HDMI, 4G bands, WiFi 802.11ac/a/b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.1 with APT-X, GPS, an IR blaster and finally NFC.
Camera:
The Le Max sports a 21MP primary camera with a dual-tone LED flash on the back and an 4MP front-facing unit for selfies. The 21MP rear-facing unit packs in a Sony IMX230 Sensor, OIS, f/2.0 aperture and even dual ISP support. The 4MP unit up front comes from OmniVision (OV4688 sensor) and is accompanied by a 81.6-degree wide-angle lens.
Battery
The LeEco Le Max sports a non-removable 3400mAh battery. Somehow we all felt that it was a bit small considering its mammoth size, but it can be attributed to the device’s weight, which is why we think it was justified. Anything bigger than a 3400mAh battery would have certainly made the large Le Max a heavyweight indeed. How long it will last, we can only confirm after our detailed review.
LeEco Le Max specifications:
• CPU: 2.0 GHz Snapdragon 810 octa-core processor
• RAM: 4 GB
• GPU: Adreno 430
• Operating System: EUI 5.0 based on Android 5.0.2 Lollipop
• Display: 6.33-inch 2K (2560 x 1440 pixels) LCD display
• Rear Camera: 21 MP auto-focus with Dual LED flash, Back-illuminated Sensor (BSI) and Optical Image Stabilization (OIS)
• Front Camera: 4 MP
• Internal Storage: 64 GB
• Connectivity: 2G, 3G, 4G, GPS, GLONASS, Bluetooth 4.1, Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, USB Type-C, Wi-Fi Direct, MHL 2.0, IR Blaster
• SIM: Dual 4G SIM (Micro + Nano)
• Other: Fingerprint Scanner, Le Hi-Fi Audio, Dolby DTS
• Battery: 3400 mAh Li-Poly non-removable battery
Verdict: At a price of Rs 32,999, LeEco Le Max smartphone is no doubt an excellent phone. It delivers very good overall performance. The mobile comes with sharp display, great camera, good built and decent battery backup.

Le 1s Ownership Review

Hi guys,
This is Rakesh and today I am sharing my views on the LeEco Le 1s that I have been using for the past month. Yes, we all know that LeEco, formerly known as Letv, launched two smartphones in the market - Le 1s and Le Max. The Le 1s is priced at Rs. 10999 and the Le Max (64GB) is priced at Rs. 32999. Le 1s is their lowest priced phone but at the same time gives features of a flagship phone. LeEco claims that they are selling Le 1s at lesser than BOM (Bill of Materials) price (which is more than Rs. 16000). Let’s move on to the review then.

BUILD & DESIGN
The first time I opened the box I was like “Wow, awesome!”, yes guys it looks great, it really looks fantastic. One of the most beautiful phones I have ever seen. The mirror-surfaced fingerprint sensor, a smart looking camera and all metal body - all these things make Le 1s a looker! It looks premium and it feels premium. The weight is a bit on the upper side but still with a 5.5-inch Full HD display and bezel-less design it is very handy and easy to use.
9/10
SCREEN & MULTIMEDIA
Le 1s comes with a 5.5-inch LCD IPS Display covered by Gorilla Glass 3. The display is great with awesome colours and contrast levels. It is sharp enough and watching Full HD videos on the display is a visual treat. Mediatek’s clear motion technology is there, so there is not even a single frame drop. It can compete with flagship phones for sure.
9/10
CAMERA
Le 1s comes with a 13 MP rear camera and a 5 MP front camera. Rear camera is an ISOCELL unit with PDAF and high aperture for low light capturing. Still, with all these features, this is where Le 1s suffers a bit. The daylight pictures are good with good details and natural colours but in lowlight the camera is just okay. The pictures turned out to be noisy and macro shots turned out to be “whitish” in low light. I also found some reddish tint on the photo. Front camera is good enough for video calling but for selfie lovers it will be a “hit or miss” as the camera works sometime good and sometime bad. Lots of software optimisation is needed in the camera section as the basic things like “beauty mode” is missing. I hope LeEco will release an OTA update which can rectify these issues. UPDATE: The latest OTA improved the camera experience by a huge margin – both front and rear cameras!
8.5/10
PERFORMANCE
This is where Le 1s outshines every other smartphone in the same category. Le 1s has Mediatek’s current flagship 64-bit Octa Core Processor MT6795 Turbo (aka Helio x10 Turbo) clocked at 2.2 Ghz. Almost every other smartphone in this price range uses cheaper processors while LeEco uses this flagship processor. We can find this processor even in the flagship phone of HTC M9 (Which costs almost 45 K). Le 1s also has 3GB RAM with the system using almost 1.5 GB RAM but still the phone performs very well. No lag at all. Almost every high end game plays butter smooth. I have tested Asphalt 8 and Temple Run, both run fluidly. As far as the performance is concerned, it is really a beast. It warms a little bit, but that is common for all metal smartphones, so not a deal breaker for me.
9.5/10
CONNECTIVITY
Le 1s supports 2G/3G/4G networks in India. Everything is working fine. I didn’t experience any network issue so far. Bluetooth and Wi-Fi are up to the mark. Le 1s supports dual SIM - one micro and one nano. Both are working perfectly fine. A small negative side is that it doesn’t support VoLTE, so for Reliance Jio users it is a deal breaker. Still it satisfied me. Thumbs up!
8.5/10
MEMORY
Le 1s comes with 32 GB of internal memory which is really good considering the price. It doesn’t support SD cards but it supports OTG. I was able to connect a 64 GB pen drive through USB Type C OTG cable and it was really fast and I had a nice experience. Overall at this price range it is really good.
8/10
SOUND QUALITY
The external speakers perform well and after plugging in earphones, it sounds really great. It is superior to the competition in this price range. Soothing to the ears and a good option for audiophiles.
8.5/10
PROS:
Stunning design
Premium Feel
Great Display
Good Speakers & Sound Quality
CONS:
Okay Camera
No VoLTE
No External SD card support
Considering the price point of 10999, LeEco provides a super “value for money” product which can break all records in the Indian mobile market. As their tag suggests a #SuperPhone at a #SuperPrice…
Overall Rating: 8.5/10
Verdict: Paisa Wasool..!

REVIEW:
The Doogee Shoot 2 provides customers with a very interesting value proposition, being the cheapest phone on the market with a dual rear facing camera set up., and boasting premium features like fingerprint unlocking.
The box came with a usb cable, a charger with an Asian 220V plug, and of course the phone. I have tonnes of chargers from my old phones, so the Chinese charger wasn't too big of an issue for me.

The phone itself has a pretty hefty feel, weighing in at 178 g. It has a 5" 720p displa, with the 3.5 mm earphone jack and micro usb port on the top. On the bottom of the phone, it has some holes for the sound to come out. The phone has a fingerprint sensitive home button on the bottom bezel, and a power and volume button on the right side of the phone. The SIM and SD card slot is under the back cover. Overall the device has a good design and feels good in the hand.
The phone runs Android 7.0, and the set up in the beginning was a little troublesome. It was kind of slow and restarted on me. Maybe because the variant I had was the 1 GB RAM variant, and that the problem won't happen with the 2 GB RAM variant. But after the initial set up, and especially after the software update, the phone was much snappier. The phone comes with a little bloatware, as expected from pretty much all manufacturers, but overall the phone still was able to mostly retain the stock android feel. The feel was snappy, and there was no lag. For those who don't like the default launcher, of course you can install a 3rd party launcher (I did Nova Launcher), and replace all the 3rd party apps with apps of your choice. The fingerprint sensor did as it was supposed to, and I had no issues unlocking with my fingerprint, being able to unlock in about a second.
Antutu Benchmarks scored it at 22877, which is as fast as a Moto G3 3rd Gen at 23258.
The 5" screen is very bright, and watching YouTube was fine. The speakers are more than adequately loud as well. Definitely the area where Doogee spent the most time on was the camera app that comes included with the phone. It has tonnes of modes and options for camera enthusiasts to play around with, like ISO, exposure, white balance, etc. The app also has a dedicated Bokeh mode to really take advantage of the dual 5 mp camera lenses. It also boasts a 2x optical zoom, just like what the iPhone 7 Plus has. Truly, the dual lens camera is the highlight feature of the phone.
Last but not least is the battery life. It's phenomenal. With the standby intelligent power saving mode on, I can get about 3 days out of it if I don't touch my phone. Even with moderate usage, I can get a day out of it no problem. That's because it has a 3360 mAh battery. Paired with a screen with 720p resolution, that means the Shoot 2 can last much longer on a battery of this size compared with a Samsung S8, with it's 1440p screen.
Overall this is a great entry level phone, designed especially for those who want to snap some great photos without having to fork over hundreds for the higher end phones. Other than the hiccup during the initial set up, there were no issues with the phone at all, and from the time I got the phone and wrote the review, there were 2 OTA updates available for the phone. I look forward to the continued support from Doogee to keep this phone up to date.

THOUGHTS ::
First and foremost let me start off by saying the finish on the silver MIX is stunning, when I first removed it from the box I was taken back... the mirror finish isnt something you come across often and it looks great. I will admit it is a finger print magnet, gorgeous nether the less.. definitely worth the upkeep.
The MIX's price point is definitely targeting the low end market, I've found it being sold generally around the $200 USD mark. Which I think is definitely a fair asking price for the device you receive. Obviously purchasing a device in the low range market your not getting all the bell's and whistles and that's to be expected.. however the Doogee MIX brings alot to the table.
Obviously the design is heavily inspired by the Xiaomi MIX and that's a good thing because the Doogee MIX looks great! The bezel-less screen really give's the device a premium feel. I've had no issues with one hand operation and I think the device is appropriately proportioned.
Now let's move onto the software, the Doogee MIX is running FreeMe OS.. for the most part I've enjoyed this android flavour. The UI is not heavily modified its nice and simple, the default launcher supports themes, little to no bloatware, OTA software updater. Includes everything you could possible want or need out the box. However there are a few minor bugs, I have brought these up to Doogee so I am hoping they will be resolved in a future software patch.. overall it's been a very positive experience, the bugs include the following:
Battery usage disabled in settings.
Battery percentage doesn't change colour according to light / dark text.
Android system webview refuses to update in the playstore.
Few minor translation errors in the settings app.
I'm not the biggest fan of the camera app, I really would like to see the UI revamped.. switching modes is a little clunky. However the camera does take decent photo's, I must say. There is little to no video stabilisation so that could definitely be improved. Overall all for a budget phone, it's pretty good... here's what the camera app looks like:
You can find some images I captured with the MIX below, I think they came out pretty good.. I was impressed.
The dual cameras don't operate as you might think, the secondary camera is used only in "blur" mode.. which as the name suggests blurs out the surrounding background of the image to increase focus on the subject.. I really feel like this was a missed opportunity, I really wish they did something more with the dual cameras. The blur effect can easily be done with software, really doesn't need a second camera to do so.
Ah of coarse the fingerprint scanner, almost forgot to mention this.. the finger print scanner is positioned on the front of the device on the bottom bezel. It doubles as a home button when the device is unlocked. In terms of accuracy its pretty good ! I personally don't use fingerprint scanners, I find them annoying... however it worked good in my tests, very accurate.. could be a little faster tho in my opinion.
Being a developer I naturally immediately requested kernel sources, Unfortunately tho Doogee have yet provided them.. which is a real shame because I have a working TWRP recovery for the device already, however unfortunately touch is not enabled in recovery. The only way to fix this is with kernel sources.. for the time being I have been using a OTG cable with a mouse to navigate TWRP. I really hope to see kernel sources release in the near future.
Overall my experience with the MIX has been positive, it does have a few quirks I must admit.. but considering how cheap the phone is they are easily excused. Performance is pretty dam good, camera is definitely adequate for photos, FreeMe OS is a really clean android flavour. Obviously sacrifices are made when purchasing budget phones... is it fair to compare the Doogee MIX to phones that cost double it's price ? Absolutely not...

​
For those following my reviews you will notice that this one (and all other that might be released in the future) is different. Why? I don't want my reviews to be all the same anymore, so i am adopting this new format that is shorter, easier to read and without lots of photos.
Similar to some previous devices released by DOOGEE, also this one comes in a eco-friendly packaging with the essentials to use the device (charger, USB cable) but includes an extra plastic screen protector. Considering the battery size i would have expected at least an OTG cable included in the box.
Thanks to the rubber/TPU chassis, the device feels really "soft" in the hand with a perfect grip even though it isn't so compact neither light (253g). Luckily, DOOGEE chose to keep the headphone jack on this device but in the same time they kept the old Micro-USB connector. It appears that nowadays all Chinese companies won't provide both things (Type-C + 3.5mm Headphone Jack) so...
Another confusing choice is the screen panel resolution, only HD+ (1440x720) instead of FHD+. Still, it is not a bad panel, with an excellent brightness and reasonably accurate colors, but considering the powerful Helio P23 a FHD+ panel wouldn't have been overkill for sure.
As regards the software, it runs on Android Nougat 7.1 (Oreo Update coming soon?) with no bloatware preinstalled. The low-res screen helps to keep the OS running super smooth due to the lower demand of resources, probably the fastest Mediatek device i have ever tested.
The device is GMS-certified and passes all SafetyNet tests. No viruses/malwares have been detected.
Of course it would have been unrealistic to see a lack of bugs on a Mediatek Device (sadly), and here is one. Lots of apps from the Play Store report the device as incompatible for some unknown reasons. Other than that, everything is perfect.
As regards its performance, as already said before, it is blazing fast considering the Mediatek SOC, and benchmarks are also quite positive.
Follow this link to check all benchmarks: https://imgur.com/a/UKCokeu
Excellent GPS Signal in both cases, indoors (left) and outdoors (right).
Average 4G signal reception with decent speeds, and the same applies to 3G networks. Unfortunately there is no WiFi AC support, but in WiFi N-mode 5GHz i am able to get the maximum speed from my internet connection.
Breaking news for Mediatek Devices followers. This S50 features a REAL dual camera, but only on the front. They do not work together, but one of them is wide-angle. Unfortunately, the back camera remains single, no real second camera sensor there. Still better than nothing, hopefully this odd marketing will end soon.
Anyway, the back camera is an OmniVision 16MP sensor that provides some decent shots, definitely superior compared to the messy Samsung 16MP found on some other devices, but i can notice a minor lack of focus. Here you can see some sample photos, others available on imgur directly.
Last, but not least, battery life. As already said for some other Helio P23 devices reviewed in the past, this SOC is really power-efficient compared to previous gen SOCs from Mediatek. Sure, the battery capacity is not low either, 5180mAh of declared battery capacity, but the hardware has to be optimized in order to use that capacity in the best way possible, and on this device it is perfect, near Qualcomm-based devices power efficiency.
The DOOGEE S50, really hard to say whether it can be considered as a S60 lower-tier device or not. The Helio P23 is slightly less powerful than a P25, and compared to the S60 it lacks Wireless Charging and NFC, but everything else is, in my opinion, superior. A 18:9 screen, decent cameras, great battery life, it is one of the best, if not THE BEST, rugged device i have ever tested, even though there are some confusing, and odd, choices like the lack of Type-C and the low-res screen.
I really hope to see Android Oreo, why not even with Treble support, coming in the next few months. It would be a pity to see a device with such a great potential, not receiving something essential in Q2 2018. DOOGEE, you can do it!
Recommended, as long as you are not a Type-C only geek
Device Rating: 9
Pros: Excellent Performance; Great Battery Life; High-End Build Quality
Cons: No Type-C; No WiFi AC; HD+ only screen​
Hi, Can anyone please help in providing offline update of Doogee S50. When I install the updates the mobile boot ups and error message comes. Also RAM is showing as 4GB instead of 6GB, looks like software bug....
Did:
1) settings > app > wireless update >storage > clear data and cache. Then reboot and try update again.
2) At reboot get "dead droid" with "Error".
It has been like this since the update was available from the OTA server. When will this be fixed?
Thanks.
Facing issues with the S50 screen since mid-July. The device has not been dropped or submerged in water.
I hope this is just an isolated issue but it is something you must be aware of.

With its design, the Huawei Y7 Prime (2018)has a similar design cues to other Y(2018) series as well as the P Smart. It has a unibody design, a shiny mirror-looking back, and metallic chrome side. it doesn’t look like a budget device at first glance because it has a premium looking feel. On paper, it’s a fairly large device due to the display with its 18:9 display.
the Huawei Y7 Prime (2018) has a 5.99-inch 720 x 1440 pixels (~269 ppi density) display with an 18:9 aspect ratio. Just above it are the 8MP front camera, soft light, speakerphone, and sensors. On the left, there is a triple card tray for dual sim and dedicated SD card. On the right we have power/lock button and volume rockers. And as usual, the 3.5mm jack, microphone, primary speaker, and micro usb port are at the bottom.
I'm very disappointed with its camera features. This phone has the same camera with the Huawei P Smart and yet it lacks in punch as well as camera features like pro mode, portrait shot, and night shot. Thus, this phone lacks gyroscope sensor so it will never support EIS.
