So the camera on my Le max 2 died, and was wondering if there's a phone that has similar specs/price as Le max 2. I mean LeMax2 is a great phone for about 200$ with a snapdragon 820 it's a steal.
Here's a "best of" list of SD820 phones - there might be something that you'd be interested in on it...
Also, the Le Max 2 is still available if you're willing to have one shipped from China.

Heyyo, tbh it's pretty darn cheap to get a replacement camera module.
If you check around the forums I'm sure you can find recommendations for new camera modules that others have bought to replace their cameras. :good:
Take a look at Lenovo Zuk Z2 Pro.I don't know if its still available or not, but it has the same processor and last known price was $250-300.
ZUK Z2 Pro, ZTE Axon 7
I would recommend something with a Snapdragon 660 or even the new 710 series. The Smartisan Nut Pro 2 is an awesome phone.

Yeh but replacing the module would be more difficult and I know I would screw it up..

thinking about an upgrade. what do yu think about the leeco le maxx 2?
http://www.gsmarena.com/leeco_le_max_2-8051.php
Despite of having better specs on paper, LeEco's Android skin is ugly and laggy. It's not only ugly, but also quite different from what you see on MIUI or stock Android. If I would be in your place, I wouldn't buy, it just because it's skin and UI.
Why are you thinking for upgrading anyways? Any solid reasons? If it's camera, I would recommend Moto G4 Plus.
lemax2 is more expensive, has less battery (users complaining bout battery life), screen is bigger but has big bezels and no microsd-slot.
But it is faster and more high-end than the rn3pro, but after all i ll stick with the xiaomi because of the great dev community!

If u wanna go with performance, maybe u should take that leeco but if u wanna have a good battery backup as well as community support then ur choice is RN3 Snapdragon version. So, choose wisely bro.

I think the leeco le pro 3 is the best offer at the moment has the same battery and any amount of power I'll get me that
with no card slot in the leeco device i will stay with my rn3p. maybe wait until the mi mix goes down in price.
Hello everyone... Need some advice about which one of these 3 to purchase. Just can't decide on whether I should go for a wicked dual camera or the power of a SD 820. Im not a heavy gamer but I do want a reliable phone. Is UMIDIGI a good brand? On paper it looks pretty decent, really confused, and I only have a a budget of $350 Australian. Any input will be greatly appreciated.

Hi, is this still an open thread or did you buy that already?
I got a leeco max 2 here and a redmi note tree. For daily use i take the leeco, because of his power, the 21MP Camera, which i use in JPG/RAW mode for taking amazing shots. And with cuoco92's rom which i use a longer time now, i feel happy to get a 'build in' adblocker (adaway is installed).
I hope this helps.

I would get the 829 unless you can find an 820 with more than 32gb of storage.
This place has really good prices
https://www.coolicool.com/cell-phones-t-289?filter_attr=0.0.0.0.0.12098.0.0.0.0
Depends where you live. If USA, get X829, if Europe or somewhere else, it's better to get the X820. The B20 is not working on X829 and until now nobody managed to make it work.
Also as I've noticed on the forum is that more users with X829 have issues with fingerprint sensor than users with X820.
The perfect buy would be X820 4/64 Grey IMHO.
Finally you should decide.
PS: Why not X720 Le Pro3?
dont buy it ..
go to Le pro 3 or leeco cool s1

It depends, the Le max 2 has a much better camera, display, gives more RAM and ROM for the price and the performance is literally 10% slower than the le pro 3 (so you would not see a massive performance lag between the devices, only if you look in the milliseconds which is not very noticeable to the human eye), also the le pro 3 does not have qfiles so if you hard brick it you can NOT revive the mobile and would have to send it for repair, which would take alot of time, this may be why the le max 2 is a much better option.
I have X829, got it last week , with 16s vendor rom, then I flash 19S Indian rom.
there is no issue in the phone, it is amazing and only 170 euro by banggood
also fingerprint sensor work fine.

The same was LeMax2 regarding QFIL files. When the phone was released, there were no files available, they surfaced later after few months (I've done the tutorial in November and the phone was released in May).
Pro3 has some advantages that you haven't mentioned: smaller screen (more pocketable), FHD (it's enough IMHO, and better for the battery and GPU), bigger battery, same RAM, slightly better processor, newer (let's assume that support will be better than LeMax2's as it has a US release). If I wouldn't care about the price, Pro3 would be my choice.

Yeah, I see where you are coming from , it just depends on the user. Also I think at this price point a lot of users would have price as one of their main factors of buying a mobile. My preference would have a larger crisper 2K screen (much better than FHD in VR and because you have no risk with bricking the mobile with no support currently you can easly root the mobile and change the resolution to 1080p to put less strain on the CPU and GPU, I think this is much better than FHD has you get the best of both worlds, VR and typical mobile gaming) , better camera and a lot more RAM and ROM for the price (6GB 128GB variant costed me $250 while the cheapest le pro 3 4GB 32GB variant is $260) and I wouldn't want to be waiting another 3+ months with a hard bricked mobile. And yes the battery on the le pro 3 is much better but for most users the battery time on the Le max 2 is sufficient enough and for still paying less you could buy a power bank. So right now I would still buy the le max 2, but definitely when those QFIL files come for the le pro 3 it would be very difficult to choose from.:good:

For X820 or X829 there are the same amount of ROMs, there is no difference between them. Gapps can be easily flashed on either, go for X820 if it's the same price.
x820 vs x829 camera which 1 better ?
Sent from my ASUS_Z00AD using xda premium
Has anyone had both of these phones in hand? Both can be purchased for the same price.
I have a rough idea of the positives and negatives of each model in my head. Does anyone else here have an opinion on which is the better phone overall?
I have also posted this to the LeEco Pro 3 community to try to get a better idea from owners of both phones.
Why not X720? The X722 does not share the same hardware as X720 and there is less development/support. Keep in mind that LeEco might never update any device in the future, so all lies with the good hearted developers.
If you live in Europe and you'll choose LeMax2, make sure it's the X820 and not the cheaper X829 due to Band20.
For me, the choice would be between X720 and X820.

Hey, thanks for you reply. I can get the X722 and X820 for the same price.
The X720 will be 45%-50% more for me.
Would you say that the X820 is the clear winner over the X722? I have to agree with you with regards to ROM development. There only seem to be ~3 active ROMs for the X722. The Le Max 2 seems to have a lot more active community.
The X722 is a niche device, so I would say it's not worth it.
I would go for the X820 in this case. It already has android 8.1. All credit goes to the excellent devs.
The only thing that might bother you is the fingerprint lottery. Many users claim it fails after a while. Mine is working for more than 1.5 years, but some report total breakdown of the fp even after few days of usage. If you can live without it, then just get it. I'd say a 50-50 chance.
I have both., X820 and X722.
1. Display - Le Max wins - super colors and ultrasharp, Le Pro looks much worse side to side.
2. Battery - Le Pro wins, lasts longer.
3. Custom ROMS - no winner. Indeed, there are not too many roms for LePro but in the end you need only one. I use AEX 7.1.2, stable, full features, no bugs noticed.
4. Sound - Le Pro wins - stereo speakers.
But my final suggestion is: if you don't care too much about battery life, buy Le Max 2. The display makes the real difference.
Heyyo, I would NOT RECOMMEND the Le Pro 3 Elite! It is NOT COMPATIBLE with Le Pro 3 custom ROMs as it uses the SD 821 and Le Pro 3 Elite uses the SD820!
There have been some community members messing about trying to get it working properly on LineageOS but it won't have as good of support as an actual Le Pro 3...
Same goes for that Le Pro 3 AI Edition which uses a MediaTek Helio X23. No kernel sources for that means no custom ROMs.
Isn't the x722 the pro elite. To be honest I just want a phone with the Google camera. So considering the Max 2 has better ROMs, would that be a better option to buy?
x722 is slowly getting ROMs, so it's an option I think. Le Max 2 has a good chance to have a dead FP out of the box, or the FP to die suddenly (like mine) and recover God knows when if it recovers (yes, by itself) at all. x722 is good if more developers start doing stuff for it, I see a good start.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/le...rom-lineage-os-14-1-x722-elite-based-t3705186
In my opinion, the Le Max 2 X820 is a better choice. Hardwear is the same in both Snapdragon 820, Adreno 530, RAM LPDDR4 and UFS 2.0, but the Le Max 2 has a much better display, the battery is smaller, but it loads very fast thanks to Quick Charge 3.0. The loudspeaker sounds very loud and good. There are plenty of ROMs to choose from. Thanks to the fact that the screen is flat, there is no problem with matching the tempered glass.
I recently bought the X820 6/64 version with the B20 band for 200 USD and I recommend it, I'm satisfied.

Excatly. For example I use X722 (Elite) with AICP and this is stable and no buggy ROM. There is a nice feature to use on - one can change saturation of colors under Live Display options - and X722 display does need it
Hi guys,
Where is the place to get the best deal on a le max 2 x820?
Thanks
buy poco f1 if possible
Bro try some other phone this SOC is outdated and the phone hardware is quite old so if you are in market for a phone use the money for some other phone
If you still consider buying this phone: definetly NOT from Banggood. They sell refurbished, fake X820 phones. Read comments on banggood.com. Especially those in russian!
