2016-01-05
what's up guys lon here from andrew authority coming to you live from CES 2016 and we're taking a look at the lay one pro this is a flagship smartphone from late evie a company you may have not heard of before but they're very well known in China and they're actually looking to bring the lay 1 Pro to the u.s. very very soon it's got an all metal unibody design with some very nice curves along the back and sides which gives it a very comfortable and sleek feel in the hand it's got a 5.5 inch IPS LCD display so it's still within the realm of one-handed use the screen is packin a resolution of 2560 by 1440 aka quad HD and it looks absolutely gorgeous the colors are fantastic it's got great viewing angles and if you're not a fan of the default color settings you can tweak them in the settings as you see fit inside is a Snapdragon 810 processor and 4 gigabytes of RAM and so far during our short time with it performance was as good as you would expect for a phone with such a powerful processor and four gigs of RAM so things like heavy gaming and multitasking between applications shouldn't be a problem for this phone at all it's got all the usual stuff that you might expect from a modern-day smartphone like Wi-Fi Bluetooth GPS and LTE but the most notable piece of hardware on the Leie one pro is the mute switch on the side you don't really see this much on Android devices but it's extremely useful anytime you want to quickly silence your device at the simple flip of a switch it also has support for the latest USB type-c standard and the nice thing about this device is that it comes with a USBC adapter in the box and just in case you're wondering this adapter is 100% compliant with USBC standards the battery inside is a 3000 milliamp hour battery which should be enough for a full day and of course you have the added benefit of fast charging there's a 13 megapixel camera on the rear with optical image stabilization and a 4 ultra pixel camera on the front which should give you some really great low-light shots for both the front and rear cameras the camera interface is pretty straightforward as well and the shutter speed was nice and quick making it pretty easy to use the software Islay TVs own custom software on top of Android 5.0 lollipop it's a pretty similar experience to other Chinese OEM skins like the lack of an app drawer but it does have some changes that make it unique the recent apps menu still allows you to multitask like normal but shortcut toggles like Wi-Fi camera and flashlight are all integrated into the recent apps screen which makes a lot of sense and feels very intuitive there's also built in live streaming capabilities that allow you to tap into any live stream like a current football or soccer game at the touch of a button which is a pretty awesome feature for consuming your favorite content on the go pricing and availability in the US is still to be announced but will definitely keep you posted on the site at Android authority com this has been a quick hands-on look of the lei one Pro from late Eevee so keep it tuned here to Android Authority for the rest of our CES 2016 coverage
