The image renders of this smartphone fail to reveal a lot of details, however the phone might sport a curved display along with thin-to-non-existent bezels. The smartphone could feature a design that do not have visible antenna bands, just like the iPhone 7. Along with that, reports also claim to have spotted a non-traditional dual rear camera setup on a LeEco device which had also appeared on TENAA some time back. Apart from these, nothing else is known about the specifications of the rumored models

 

LeEco Le Pro 3, the company's latest release is powered by Snapdragon 821 SoC along with featuring a 5.5-inch full HD display with 2.5D curved glass on top that is set at maximum brightness of 500 nits and 80% NTSC colour gamut. Available in two variants, the 4GB RAM comes with 32 or 64GB storage and 6GB RAM variant with 64GB or 128GB storage.

The leak comes in after the company was rumored to be coming to America with Silicon Valley offices in place, new staff and a confirmed launch event for later this month, according to reports.
