Have you heard of LeEco? Probably not. You may not have heard about the company but trust me it is one of the fastest rising manufacturers out of china. The company has some amazing devices most of which have almost bezel-less designs and other flagship features at affordable prices. Here in Kenya, you can get LeEco phones from Avechi.
LeEco has today unveiled three new smartphones which are the Le Max 2, Le 2 and Le 2 Pro. All these smartphones are missing earphone jacks something we expect to find on every smartphone. The earphone jacks have been replaced with USB Type-C ports. This is quite an interesting move for the company and very commendable especially if you consider the fact that these are not your usuall high end devices as the most expensive one is the Le Max 2 which is retaining for $385 (approximately Ksh 39,000).
Let’s look at some of the specs of the LeEco trio.
