Design and Display
Flaunting a metal unibody design, the LeEco Le S3 brings some more expensive phones to mind with its looks. LeEco is not really that kind of company to disappoint with appearance of its devices, but the LeEco Le S3 could use less sharp angles and a brushed finish.
You will find a large 5.5-inch IPS display on the front. With a resolution of 1,080 x 1,920 pixels, it is safe to expect impressive wide viewing angles. On top of the display is robust Corning Gorilla Glass 3.
Camera and Storage
A look at the camera department reveals a 13MP shooter on the rear of the device. It boasts dual-LED, dual tone flash and phase detection autofocus. The LeEco Le S3 can shoot videos of up to 4K resolution at 30 frames per second. There is an 8MP front facing camera to cater to your selfie needs.
The phone offers 32 GB of storage space for keeping your photos and files. Sadly, it appears that’s all you get for storage – no expansion.
Performance and OS
