A few days back, Letv announced its first smartphone after a long time. This handset called Letv S1 offers 5G connectivity and costs only ¥1,599 ($248). As the device is now up for sale in China, its entire specs have been revealed by the company.
The newly released Letv S1 features a plastic build like any other budget smartphone. It flaunts a 6.53-inch LCD panel with a resolution of 720 x 1600 pixels (HD+) and a dewdrop notch.
The handset comes powered by a UNISOC Tiger T7510 SoC paired with 8GB RAM and 256GB internal storage. On the software front, it runs FreemeOS 9.1.0 based on Android 9.0 Pie with HMS (HUAWEI Mobile Services).
Further, the back of the phone houses a vertically aligned triple camera setup. This array comprises a 48MP Samsung primary sensor, a macro shooter, a depth sensor, and an LED flash. The rear panel also sports a fingerprint sensor.
Other features of this device include a MicroSD card slot (hybrid), a USB Type-C port, and a 4,900mAh battery. Lastly, it measures 163.6 x 75.5 x 9.7mm in dimensions, weighs 206.4g, and arrives in two color options (Sapphire Blue, Lake Green).
Letv claims that most of the components of this phone are sourced locally in China. The firm even advertises the handset as the first ‘nationally produced’ mobile phone.
The Letv S1 is targeted at drivers of ride-sharing as well as delivery services and senior citizens. The smartphone will most likely not release outside mainland China.
