Leagoo has been extending its reach lately especially in Nigeria where it is now becoming a product you can see from time to time in people’s hands. The Leagoo M0 Pro is the upgrade of the Leagpo M9 and it has a similar dual camera feature in common. Basically, this is a smartphone that looks quite good even though it is not as good as it looks on the inside. Instead what you have is a budget smartphone that has been made in a way to have some premium semblance.

Design and Display
One thing is to be clear here, while the images on the Leagoo’s website might suggest a bezel-less display, the smartphone is not actually bezel-less as it does have some slight bezels at the side. Also, the smartphone is made of plastic with a bit of metal at the side and the rear side is dubbed with a dual camera, dual LED flash, fingerprint scanner and Leagoo written vertically all at the upper mid-section.
The chin has been reduced with the navigation buttons shifted on-screen while the forehead too is also reduced while still housing an earpiece speaker, camera, flash and the appropriate sensors. In the middle, the smartphone sports a 5.72-inch screen with an HD+ resolution and a 281 ppi pixel density.
Battery and Camera
The Leagoo M9 Pro comes with an average capacity which can not really be faulted since it has not been dubbed a battery juggernaut and it is fairly sufficient for daily use. It sports a 3, 000mAh battery with no wireless charging or fast charge, an expected omission considering the budget status.
Dual camera is a feature that has found its way even to the budget level and the Leagoo M9 Pro is one of those smartphones that have the feature. The rear is blessed with a deuce of 13MP and 2MP camera alongside a dual LED flash to light things up. Selfies will be taken using the 5MP front canmera which also comes with a flash for better lighting.
Hardware and Software
As I mentioned earlier, the Leagoo M9 Pro doesn’t come with much on the inside and that is proven by its Quad-core MediaTek MT6739 chipset and IMG 8XE 1PCC GPU. Furthermore, it sports a 2GB RAM and 16GB internal storage that you can increase to 128GB using a MicroSD card. In conclusion, it has Leagoo OS 3 which is based on Android 8.1 Oreo booting up with the smartphone.
Leagoo M9 Pro Pricing and Availability
The smartphone is available for sale on several online stores with a price tag of around 34, 000 Naira based on the deal and your location.
