LeEco Le 2 premium variant with 6GB RAM spotted on GFXBench ahead of launch

A new report has emerged online hinting that Chinese consumer electronics major LeEco might unveil two Le 2-series smartphones this week.

Last week, LeEco Le 2 with a MediaTek processor was spotted at TENAA, a Chinese government-owned telecommunication certification agency site. Now, another Le 2 variant with the Snapdragon 820 SoC (System-on-chip) has been sighted on performance testing website GFXBench.

As per the listing, the device named LeTV LeEco Le 2 X820 boasts 5.5-inch QHD (2560x1440p) display and runs Android's latest v6.0.1 Marshmallow with sumptuous 6GB RAM and 64GB inbuilt storage (53GB user available).

It also reportedly houses a 20MP camera with LED flash, autofocus, HDR, face detection and 4K video recording ability on the back, and a 7MP snapper on the front.

The interesting thing about this Le 2 model is it features 6GB RAM. The more the RAM capacity, the more efficient and lag-free a device performs. Once launched, this will be the second handset in the global market to boast such a high capacity of RAM. The only other device to house 6GB RAM is Vivo XPlay Elite, which was launched in March 2016.
