The New Unlocked LePro 3 Phone Big in Features, Low in Price

Earlier this year we reported on the top trends for 2016, we discovered by attending CES, the Consumer Electronics Show in January.  One of the big trends we uncovered offers consumers a HUGE benefit – the ability to get good quality phones with lots of features, at a much lower cost…and they are unlocked, so they can be used with any wireless carrier.

This is big news because you get a lot more for your money and you can use your new phone at Sprint, T-Mobile, Verizon, AT&T, etc..

We looked at a lot of unlocked phones at CES, but one recently came on the market that really impressed us.  The LeEco Le Pro3 smartphone gives you the features of a $900 smartphone at half the cost.  It comes with a beautiful brushed gold or silver, metal casing with a built-in finger touch recognition that is fast in responding to your touch.

The LePro 3 is stunning, inside and out, with top-of-the-line features you’d expect to find in a Samsung or Apple phone.  It has the fastest CPU processor available on the market, comes with its standard 64 GB internal storage, and the picture and video (4k) quality is superb.  It takes brilliant pictures even in dimmed lighting, as seen in the above picture.

Like it’s competitors, the Le Pro3 comes with strong Gorilla glass.  I was thankful for this glass after dropping my phone four feet to my tile floor below.  Naturally, it fell glass first.  Thankfully, it survived the fall.  Last summer I dropped my mother-in-law’s phone just 2 feet…on its glass face…and it cracked.

• Large battery – 4070 mAh 
• Qualcomm® Quick Charge™ 3.0
• CDLA Type-C audio output (new phone standard, replacing micro-USB)
• Uses NFC for Android Pay transactions

Pros:

• $400 is an incredible price for this high quality phone
• Made with polished metal, it even looks expensive

Cons:

• Because LeEco is new to the US market, there aren’t as many phone case options available
• You cannot replace the battery, it’s built-in.  This is disappointing, as phone batteries lose their power over time
• Due to the latest Type-C standard, you cannot listen to music with earbuds and charge at the same time
• Although 64GB of built-in memory is more generous than other phones, the Le Pro3 does not accommodate additional SD storage

The Le Pro3 Phone is available in gold from LeEco for $399 plus free shipping.

A Mom’s Perspective

Isn’t amazing you can get a great quality, top-of-the-line phone for less than half of what you get with the top phone manufacturers?  I’ve been using the LePro 3 for the past month and it’s a really nice phone.  The screen is beautiful, my pictures are impressive, but you know what really got my attention?  It’s sound.

The LePro3 uses the gold standard, Dolby Atmos stereo sound, and let me tell you, it’s very noticeable.  It’s the best sound I’ve ever heard from a phone.  The stereo aspects are great and really enhances the video or movie I’m watching.

Now, you may be wondering, who is LeEco, the maker of the LePro 3?  LeEco is a leading global company, which began distributing content (with more than 100,000 TV episodes and 5,000 movies) in China.  Today, they have over 53 million daily visitors.  LeEco expanded into TV’s, phones, wireless music, even into autonomous cars.

They have recently entered the US market and placed their American headquarters in the Silicon Valley.  We have been following them since their American launch and have been impressed with their quality of products and follow-through.

LeEco also has another high quality but less powerful unlocked phone called the LeS3 Echophone for $249, which is also unlocked.

Today, there are a lot more options for top-of-the line smartphones without the price tag and commitments.  The new Le Pro 3 Phone from LeEco is a great 5.5″ display phone, with superior Dolby Atmos stereo sound, and latest and fastest Qualcomm Snapdragon 821 CPU, at a price that is affordable.
