LeEco’s newest entrant has no 3.5 mm headphone jack but that does not stop it from getting all the attention especially because the phone has been launched for a price of Rs. 22999 which is roughly US $ 342.
The LeMax 2 will go on sale later this month and is expected to attract a lot of demand, especially because the price is slightly less than the price expectation of the OnePlus 3 which is expected to go on sale for Rs. 23999 for the same configuration of 4GB RAM plus 32GB of Storage.
The Le Max will be available in a larger 6GB RAM plus 64 GB Storage for a price of Rs 29999 roughly US $ 447. Which will co-incide with the OnePlus 3’s larger variant expected to launch for the same price. Watch our video below.
