As expected, LeEco on Tuesday launched a new smartphone with an AI assistant. Called the LeEco Le Pro 3 AI Edition, the smartphone is also the company’s first with a dual rear camera setup – a trend that has been embraced by a plethora of manufacturers. China pre-orders for the smartphone begin on Tuesday itself, and it will go on sale on Friday in two variants – Helio X23 SoC model with 32GB storage priced at CNY 1,799 (roughly Rs 16,800) and Helio X27 SoC model with 64GB storage priced at CNY 2,399 (roughly Rs. 22,500).
The highlight of the LeEco Le Pro 3 AI Edition is its AI-based voice assistant. Called LeLe, it can be activated while the screen is turned off, and is integrated with LeEco’s apps as well as some third-party apps as well, GizmoChina reports. The assistant is supposed to learn from the user and get better with time.
Another highlight is its dual rear camera setup. The LeEco Le Pro 3 AI Edition sports two 13-megapixel rear sensors, with one capturing monochrome information and the other capturing colour information. The sensors are coupled with f/2.0 aperture lenses, and also feature PFAF autofocus and dual-LED flash. The company is also touting the Le IMAGE AI engine that stitches together the images.
