LeEco is on a blistering growth track and pursuing its goals in India with relentless focus and sharply defined strategies. It has successfully wooed the Indian consumers with their Superphones which are clearly differentiated in terms of superior performance, technology and disruptive pricing.   The company’s global reputation, remarkable technology expertise, incredibly lower than the industry BOM cost valuation have attributed to these records.

Commenting on setting this record, Atul Jain, COO, Smart Electronics Business, LeEco India said, “We believe that with this third highly successful outcome, LeEco has lived up to its global reputation of being a market disruptor and game changer. Le Max, the top-selling premium Superphone, which joins the sales in India for the first time, has proved to be a strong contender. Le 1s, the all-time best seller and record breaker, disrupts the market and manifests the ‘LeEco phenomenon’. We are delighted with the huge vote of confidence that Indian consumers have given us and am confident that going forward we will continue to offer more exciting products “

Anil Goteti, VP - Smartphones, Flipkart, said, “Le 1s has witnessed great momentum over the last three flash sales on our platform. With overwhelming customer response and great reviews, we are confident that this partnership will create new benchmarks in the online smartphone space in India.”
