China's Letv started making headlines in India back in April 2015, and less than a year later, the company has arrived here to compete in the gruelling smartphone race. Originally one of the largest online video companies in China, Letv has added a couple of 'firsts' to its name within a short span. Its Le Max Pro is the world's first smartphone with Qualcomm's highly anticipated Snapdragon 820 SoC, and the company also had the world's slimmest 65-inch TV to its credit this CES, with a depth of just 3.9mm thick. Other than phones and televisions, the company has a diverse range of products too, which it plans to launch in India over time.
The Le Max is Le Eco’s current flagship smartphone, and it ticks all the right boxes on paper. It has a very good Quad HD display and an imposing presence, which is sure to turn a few heads. The build is excellent, thanks to the all-aluminium body. Added features like an IR blaster and Wireless HDMI support are welcome additions. The phone also has an excellent camera, which performs very well even in low-light situations. Battery life is good for everyday usage and the phone also supports 4G. However, the high launch price might be a bit of a turn-off considering you can find similar options for less these days.
