LeEco Le S3 review

The Le S3, the second widely available phone from Chinese phone/TV/video streaming/electronics/basically everything company LeEco, is a less expensive variant of the more powerful LePro 3 . At $250 it's relatively cheap, and packs in some pretty decent...

LeEco's Le S3 is fast and affordable.

The LeEco Le S3 is a decent budget phone, but the Motorola G4 Plus is better.

LeEco Le S3

The unlocked LeEco Le S3 balances a premium build, powerful performance, and unique features with an affordable price, making it a solid buy as long as you can look past its heavy-handed Android layer.

Low price tag ; Capacitive touch menu buttons ; Bright 5.5-inch full-HD screen ; Dual-sim card tray ; USB-C port

Weak battery life ; Annoying interface ; Low-light photos look a bit blotchy ; No microSD card slot

The $200 Le S3 impresses with an upscale design and big 5.5-inch full-HD screen, but its outdated OS, lack of a headphone jack and appalling battery life can't be ignored.
