Le Max Pro becomes world's first SD820 smartphone to go on sale
Turns out the rumors were true. The Le Max
Pro from LeEco (formerly LeTV) became the world's first SD820 smartphone to go
on sale after a limited number (1,000) of units were made available for
purchase today.
There are, however, a couple of interesting
facts about the sale, which started at 12pm China time. Firstly, the units up
for grabs were not commercial models, but engineering models instead. And
secondly, they were available for just CNY 1,999 (around $305) - earlier rumors
had suggested the device will cost somewhere between CNY 3,500 and CNY 3,700
($530-$570).
Specs-wise, the Le Max Pro sports a 6.33-inch
QHD touchscreen, and comes with 4GB RAM, 21 MP rear camera, ultrasonic
fingerprint scanner, a USB Type-C port, and 3,400 mAh battery. It runs Android
6.0 Marshmallow.
