LeEco - LE PRO3 4G LTE with 64GB Memory Cell Phone (Unlocked) - Gold

It has the best specs in 2016 and only asking less than $250 in 2017. This beast has the top build quality and comes with a free earbud and a crystal case in the box. The battery life is extremely long. At night it has at least 40% power left for my regular days. The screen is large and the sound quality is superior. The only thing let it down is the camera performance in low light. It is average but not as good as Samsung Galaxy S6 or Apple iPhone 6S. Also, the fingerprint scanner works well but slower than other devices from Samsung and Apple. It is an Android phone but initially installed a customized UI from LeEco. It is not too hard to get used to, but I strongly recommend to install Nova Launcher to get similar stock Android experience with features. If you love playing games and watching videos and seldom taking photos from your phone, this is for you!

For the cost, this is a great piece of hardware but you have to accept some bad with the good. First, the good: The build quality is solid and this phone looks and feels great. The processor is the top-of-the-line chip for flagship phones right now and you're getting it for $400. Experience with launching and changing apps is snappy and responsive. Screen quality is nice, sound quality is excellent (turn on Dolby Atmos in the settings). The included CDLA earbuds sound outstanding. 4GB RAM and 64GB Storage is good. The battery is simply a beast and it comes with quick-charging tech. Fingerprint sensor on the back for easy security. Works on all of the T-Mobile bands which is getting to be a rarity for unlocked phones. The compromises: The camera is iffy though you can partially fix that by using a 3rd party app instead of the native camera app. If you live and die by your phone camera though, you'll probably be disappointed here. There's no SD slot for expanded storage. There is no 3.5mm jack (the included earbuds use USB-C) so you'll either need USB-C or Bluetooth headphones. There IS an included USB-C to 3.5mm adapter but you'll lose quality (a better adapter than the included one may help). Finally, the UI is noticeably different from the Android standard. This can be easily changed with apps like Nova Launcher, Google Now Launcher or similar but the out-of-box experience may be a bit confusing. So, do I recommend it? Yes, but only with the understanding that you're going to have to tinker a little (new launcher, new camera app, etc) and accept a less than stellar camera, no SD slot, etc. You're not getting a $800 phone experience but what you get for $400 is remarkable.

I read a lot of reviews, and YouTube's before I bought this phone. I was prepared for the quirks of a Chinese phone, but I have to say. Really great job. This phone, since the update I downloaded OTA When I first got it has been great. TheHD voice is awesome, my Nexus 6p wouldn't do it on ATT even though it was capable but this one does. The camera gets dinged everywhere, but it is actually good, easily as good as the one on the 6p. The phone speed is awesome, never any lagging. One weird thing, when you reboot, Bluetooth comes up OFF. I am very pleased to have a phone faster than a pixel (that is a real statement not hyperbole) that costs HALF as much with 64 GB of storage and 4 GB ram is crazy.

I bought this phone directly from LeEco at a discount. It's worth every penny that I paid. At full price, there are other choices to consider that may better suit your individual needs. Get this phone if: -you need T-Mobile Wi-Fi calling -you want excellent cell signal -you want excellent call quality - excellent GPS, Bluetooth, NFC -FAST processor -Good dual speaker -excellent customer support -awesome battery life - don't mind making little tweaks to get it working the way you want Don't get this phone if:: - you need a 3.5 mm headphone jack -you need microSD card slot for memory expansion -you need more than decent camera and video-taking capabilities - you need stock Android without bloatware - you are not willing to learn the ins and outs of this phone, and put up with its quirks. It works well for my needs but I had to put some work on initial setup. I installed Nova launcher and made some settings adjustments to receive my notifications reliably. Certain settings are buried under apps and sub-menus which can be difficult to find. Now that it's setup to my liking, it works well. For music listening, you can pair with Bluetooth headphones, use the included CDLA headphones or use the included USB-C to 3.5 mm adapter. Probably not for the non tech savvy person unless you set it up for them, but I do recommend this phone if you can get it at a discount.

Overall the Le Pro3 is a wonderful phone that has flagship specs with a mid-range camera. If camera isn't that important to you, there's simply no reason to spend twice as much on a flagship. Let's first get some of the "bad" out of the way: Camera - It isn't technically bad, just nothing to write home about. To be fair, supposedly the main issue is the software not the hardware so it could be improved in the future. It's comparable to camera of other phones in its price range. Headphone Port - Be aware that the Le Pro3 does NOT have a headphone port. It does come with a pair of very good USB C headphones and a USB C to headphone adapter. I personally don't use headphone ports anymore as I have gone fully wireless but if you do, just keep this in mind. Now the good: Fingerprint sensor is fast and accurate. Screen is big and bright and even though it's only FHD and not QHD, I wasn't able to tell the difference. The somewhat stereo speakers are great too, with one coming from the earpiece and the other coming from the bottom. The phone itself feels very fast and snappy.

I just needed an unlocked phone for tmobile wifi service and this does the job pretty well. I installed google now launcher and settings so its just like my moto x that i was using. Was skeptical but so far love the phone, finish and quality

This Le Pro3 offers great speed, excellent battery life and great build quality. Pros It has the same processor (the snapdragon 821) as the google pixel but with more processing power.This phones 4070mah battery lasts me all day. The fingerprint sensor is quick. The build quality is solid. Cons I like the look, color and feel of this phone but the one thing I would change is the black bezel around the screen. The camera is not as good as the ones found in higher end phones but it is not a bad camera at all. The software is has some changes from what you would find in other android phones that can be seen as a con to some users. For example the pull down screen is only for notifications and the settings menu is accessed from the bottom corner.

Overall a great phone, battery almost 2 days, brand new CPU 821 snapdragon and it's amazingly fast. Overall plus the AFFORDABLE PRICE, its all worth it.
