LeEco sent the Max phone to India when the company was still called Letv. It is the first phone LeEco released in the Indian market. The phone tries to give a lot of power for its price.
Design and Build
The LeEco Max feels strong because it has an aluminum frame. The metal makes the phone look premium. The back of the phone is also metal and holds the 21 MP camera. Below the camera you can see the fingerprint sensor. The sensor is a little recessed, so it does not stick out.
On the right side you will find the power button and the SIM tray. The volume rocker and the mute button are on the left side. The 3.5 mm headphone jack is at the top. The small USB‑Type‑C port and the speaker are at the bottom.
There is a Letv logo at the bottom right side of the back. The front of the phone has a small speaker grille and a front camera with a 4 MP sensor.
Display
The screen is 6.33 inches big. It shows a 2K resolution, which means the picture is very sharp. The display uses a capacitive touch panel with back‑lit keys, so the keys glow in the dark.
Because the screen is large, watching videos feels like a mini‑theater. The high resolution makes text look clear and games look detailed.
Camera
The rear camera is 21 MP. It can take very detailed photos. It also has a double LED flash to help in low light.
The phone can record video in 4K. 4K video has a lot of detail and sounds good with stereo sound.
The front camera is 4 MP. It works well for selfies. The phone has a “beauty mode” that smooths skin and makes faces look flawless.
Performance and Battery
Inside the phone is a Snapdragon 810 processor. This chip has eight cores that run at 2.0 GHz. It is paired with an Adreno 430 GPU for graphics.
The phone has 4 GB of RAM. This helps apps open quickly and lets you switch between apps without lag.
Storage is 64 GB and cannot be expanded with a memory card. This means you have to keep an eye on how much space you use.
Running Android 5.1 Lollipop with LeEco’s Eco UI, the phone feels smooth. In our tests, opening apps, browsing the web, taking photos, and playing games all felt fast.
