LeEco Le 2 Expert Review Summary
Expert Rating:
![Deeksha Koli]()
Verdict
The LeEco Le 2 offers a nice display, and a powerful processor, but that’s about it. Everything else is just decent… something you can work with, but not the best in the segment.In terms of competition, the Lenovo ZUK Z1 and the Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 are also decent all-rounders, and we must not forget about the latter`s brilliant battery back up, a department where the LeEco Le 2 falls slightly short. The CDLA tech is something that is definitely interesting and unique about the Le 2, but it’s not compelling enough for you to buy this phone for just that reason. The content ecosystem howe...

Design: Better Than The Competition
+
There’s only so much you can do when it comes to designing a smartphone. Since you can’t miss the screen, the ports and the camera modules, a tiny window remains for a company to be creative. Add to that the burden of keeping up with what’s in, and all that’s left is a smartphone that pretty much looks like the competition. The Le 2 is no different.

Display: Bright and Brilliant
+
The 5.5-inch full HD display on the Le 2 is decently sharp. The texts and icons appear crisp and colours look vibrant and rich, without looking oversaturated. If you do not like the default colours, you get an option to switch between Vivid, Natural, and Soft colour settings. The screen brightness of the phone is pretty impressive, and enough for you to comfortably operate it in under any sort of lighting. The viewing angles do not disappoint either. Overall, it’s one of the better displays in its price segment.

Cameras: A Mixed Bag
+
The camera configuration on the LeEco Le 2 is on par with the standards, as the device uses a 16-meg snapper on the back, assisted by a dual-tone LED flash, and an 8MP front camera.

Software: Work with What You Get
+
On top of Android Marshmallow, the Le 2 runs EUI v5.6 out of the box, and v5.8 once you update it. Now, as you might know from our previous reviews of the LeEco smartphones, EUI is a heavy skin, and hence the software on the Le 2 is far from stock.

CDLA: bidding goodbye to the 3.5mm jack
+
The LeEco Le 2 was launched alongside the Le Max 2, and both these smartphones were the first from the brand to ditch the 3.5mm audio jack for Type-C audio. CDLA, a technology exclusive to LeEco, stands for Continually Digital Lossless Audio. Since the Type-C port does not need any digital to analogue conversion, there is zero loss in the audio, at least in theory. The company has been bundling the CDLA in-ear headphones with the smartphone as an introductory offer, which is still going good and strong, but we do not know how long this offer will last.

Performance: smooth is the word
+
While the Le 1s was launched with an octa-core chip from MediaTek, the Le 2 is a slight upgrade, featuring an octa-core Snapdragon 652 chipset assisted by 3GB of RAM. The processing was more or less a breeze on the phone. And by that we mean smooth, not lightening fast. That said, the regular usage on the phone will be hassle free. There’s an integrated Adreno 510 GPU to aid the gaming.
