Is le max 2 still worth buying - LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers

Hello ,
I own honor 8 pro but the screen broke so I went back to my oneplus2
yesterday I got le max 2 32gb very neat state but without box
is it worth to sell my op2 and add 1000rs to buy the max2 ?

what guys no answer ?
many of you been using this device for a while
please give me advice if I should buy it or not

well...depends on your use. I will recommend it, the only thing I don't like is the battery in every other aspect works good. I don't root it yet, I plan to do it, to install apps for improve battery like L-Speed or Helix Engine

depends on your use I mean, do you have an agressive use of social networks, play games, etc...better a Xiaomi, if it's for regular use works good. The fast charger is a pro, with half an hour you have a decent amount of energy to continue until the night

again, it depends on the use. In general with my use I have 1 day and 15, 17 hours of battery average. And with SOT, 3 hours 30 minutes. Again, depends on the use. With agressive use the battery will drop a lot.
I use a alternative client of facebook, twitter from an open source browser and blackberry hub...

the system UI is nice, I like it very much. You can read about custom roms and is a dispute between goods and bads

well if it's in that way maybe better a Xiaomi for the well balanced battery. I read that the Redmi Note 4 gets 6 hours of SOT. I know that other models of LeEco have 4.000 mah battery but I don't know how is the optimization

It doesn't has microsd card slot.So 32 gb storage can not be expanded.QSD 820 still rocks in most of the heavy games, despite of being 2 years old and way better than QSD 808 of op2's.Your choice.

yes one of the reasons I want to change is the processor and the screen

if battery is not a problem go for it... i usually get 4-5 of SOT (sometimes less it depends on your usage) and gaming like pubg literally kills the battery 25% per pubg match...

Heyyo, yes I would say it's worth it. I had a Nexus 6P which had the same Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 which isn't good for battery life and performance isn't too great either in 3D games. The LeEco Le Max 2 with Oreo custom ROMs works great in 3D games. :good:
I would also look for deals on devices with SnapDragon 835 as they have also come down in price (albeit nowhere near as low as the Le Max 2) as you never know, might find one worth the price difference.
So yeah, if you're into 3d games or want a device with a higher density screen? The Le Max 2 is worth the upgrade.
We do lack SDcard and NFC though, so if those are important to you? Unfortunately you'll have to look for a different device...
Also, the camera on the Le Max 2 is really darn good. Only downside is the OIS isn't super effective compared to other OIS devices and we only get 1080P 30fps (and 4K UHD 30fps). I'm guessing it was a budget cut on the Sony Exmor RS IMX230 we got in order to keep the prices low... But damn, this camera with Google Camera Mod? It is impressive what it can do!

already bought it
the 810 started dying and isnt really effective anymore
also Im trying to save to buy good laptop so sd 835,845 ,kirin 970 are not in the budget
only one thing annoying is the company dumped the phone and no updates so rom suggestion would be really helpful

Heyyo, for ROM updates? There is some from LeEco yes... But they're still Marshmallow and they don't really bother updating security level which has been on January 1, 2017 for quite a while...
For custom ROMs? Pretty much any Oreo ROM. They're all really darn good and almost all of them still get constant updates.
I'd recommend searching the ROM development thread and see which one has the most recent comments to your linking. :good:
I myself am the Le Max 2 maintainer for LineageOS 15.1 and tbh I haven't really tried any other Oreo ROMs so I can't comment on how their balance of performance, battery life and features are but yeah there's a lot to choose from and you can't really go wrong.

ok bro thanks for replying I downloaded lineage rom as I was using it with op2
my last questions
is the HDR works in any cam app
is there no issue with fast charge
how is the battery consumption
is there a kernel for battery optimization like balanced or power saving mode

HDR works fine with any camera app. For Oreo ROMs though it is recommended to use Tolyan009 builds as they are stable for us.
Quick Charge 3.0 works fine for me yeah. Some users report charging issues if the battery goes above 40°c and that is something I will be looking into.
Battery idle consumption is pretty good... But screen on time isn't due to mainly the QHD screen and not massive battery to compensate. I tend to get about 5 hours SoT and I don't 3D game or such. Mainly web browsing, Telegram, XDA and VNC Remote PC control.
Like others have said, screen on time for the Le Max 2 isn't so good... But it can be improved with some sacrifices to performance. LineageOS tends to lean a slight bit more towards performance than a balance between performance and battery life.
For kernels? There is bs kernel and the GalaticStryder kernel (found in the LineageOS "Pro" thread) which both have threads in the ROM development forum section.
Resurrection Remix Power Saver is the ROM that comes to mind for battery life over performance. Afaik it doesn't have an active thread on XDA so they use a telegram channel for updates, downloads and discussion.

been using the phone for 3 days now
flashed lineage rom and got 3:50 hrs sot with normal usage
also got 156000 points on antutu which still impressive
charging takes 1 hour and 20 minutes to 100% using 5.2v 2A lenovo adapter
so overall yes it worth buying and would have been great if the company released nougat at least

I am a Mate10Pro user and i bought very cheap the LeEcoMax 2 from Ebay. I just want to test it but now it replaced my Mate10Pro completly. The device is now 2 years old but running very fast and i have flashed AEX Official v.5.7 based on 8.1 and it's a real good combination . I also flashed LOS on it and it's also a good rom in combination with the phone. I am using a Gcam mod and the pics are awesome, the portrait mode is working great. I have to admit that the battery life is not that good compared to the M10Pro and also some apps are not opening such fast but these are things i can live with. Cheers

RN3 Pro or Nexus 5x

I have owned RN3P for two months now, and I'm pretty satisfied with it, except from the camera ofcourse. Just now, I saw a ad on olx for Nexus 5x for pretty reasonable price and now I'm confused should I sell my RN3P and get the nexus device. I know that Nexus 5x has SD808 and Adreno 418, which are definitely inferior to RN3P's config. So, on paper, RN3P blows Nexus 5x out of the water. But, on the other side, Nexus devices PERFORM, and also the nexus 5x sports a much much better camera than RN3P. I don't click much photos, but anyone would like to have a good camera phone. I don't care about battery too much and 2700mah on nexus 5x will be enough for me. And, I do use my phone for bit of gaming (MC4 :-B).
So, if someone has both the devices or just want to give a advice. Please comment..!!
One doesn't appreciate the battery until one jumps to the nexus side......
Seriosuly let aside bells and whistles that our RN3's provides, the battery experience simply cannot be replaced. I used to own the nexus 5x and trust me it's battery sucks, 3-4 hours of SOT. After using RN3 I simply cannot go back to nexus just because of the battery.
Yes if you need a device to tinker with then nexus is an awesome phone but for daily usage I would recommend RN3

What about the difference in performance and camera..?
You've already answered your own question. But in my words:
-If you want to have a nice camera on your phone, with a flagship branding, and clean Stock Android experience, get the Nexus 5x.
-If you need a Big 5.5" screen, with heavy gaming & good battery, and if you can bear MIUI, then keep the RN3 Pro.
Just keep these points in mind. Forget about normal performance. Both phones will perform on par, when on normal usage, because 5x being on stock Android will feel much snappier and light-weight, as compared to MIUI powered RN3 Pro, even if RN3 Pro has more powerful processor. (See I'm talking about normal usage, not heavy such as games etc.), Also, Big battery is a big advantage of RN3 Pro, over 5x. Keep it in mind as well.

Camera is much much better than RN3 but also SD 650 beats 808 on performance. So you decide yourself, that you want better community support and faster updates or overall better vfm device.

Yeah, I got that, even RN3 on CM or any other custom ROMs is "much snappier", significantly. But, in gaming performance, MIUI literally performs better.

Well, games performs good in MIUI 'cause it's the default ROM shipped on the phone. You know, some (read: most) custom ROMs' performance degrades for obvious reasons. If Xiaomi has shipped RN3 with AOSP, then games would perform as good as they're currently on MIUI. Seriously, I can't understand, why Chinese companies make Android skins with iOS-y looks. It doesn't even come close to iOS this way. lol.

Well, MIUI skin is not that bad. I mean, you could get used to it. The bad part is the bloatwares that come along with it.
And, I don't really understand how's this possible but even after heavy customization, the gaming performance is better in other non-xiaomi devices too. Earlier I had Lenovo A6k+, and not only the Antutu scores went up to 38k from 22k, but also the gaming became extremely smooth, after flashing MIUI ROM.
P.S. : I've dropped my plan getting Nexus 5x.

Then there must be something special in MIUI, if it can increase that much of AnTuTu score.
BTW, Nice to see, you made the decision.

Which ROM has the best SoT?

I have my Redmi Note 3 Snapdragon 3/32 for 6 months. I remember that in the beginning there was an offical global dev rom installed and it was running perfectly with SoT 9-11 hours.
Newest official MIUI gives only 5-7 hours. Same with xiaomi.eu.
Is there any ROM with better SoT? I have tried installing Radon Kernel but it gives me high temperatures on balanced settings and higher battery drain.
Resurrection Remix Rom, 10-11 hrs SOT, Everything stock, I suggest 6-2-2017 and 3-3-2017 build. I am still rocking 6-2 build.
Also camera doesn't work properly. But I use my go pro so if u r not camera dependent, try it. Hell of customizations..
Installing other camera app doesn't make it work?

From my own experience:
Nitrogen is pretty good even with stock kernel, there are some changes like DrunkSauce as governor profile, so you don't have to tinker with it tbh. CitrusCAF is also nice, but stable build is like 2 months old (experimental is from 1st March though, everything works fine on it). You can also try AICP/SlimROM, but i'd say on these ROMs SOT is still comparably high, so it's just all about what else you expect from a rom.
Any Android 7.x-based ROM will not have proper camera control due to Xiaomi not releasing the sources for 7.x, no camera app solves this issue. In my own experience, I found about 50-60% of the time, camera apps crash when opening them, and when they do work, most of the hardware functions, like autofocus, seem to not work.
The solution to this issue is to use a ROM based on Android 6.x, personally I've been using LOS 13 from this thread and everything has been working fine, hardware-wise, on my note 3 (kate), and the other day I played Plants vs Zombies on it for about 7 hours, and still had over 60% battery left, and I've never seen that kind of SoT before. I'm also using the Radon kernel, which probably also helps a lot. Using the balanced profile, and original colours, not sure if using the other profiles or enhanced colours would impact SoT negatively, though.

Im using global dev 7.2.9 and radon kernel v4.0
Sot up to 10h-11h when set to low freq cpu 400-1100Mhz little and 400-1100Mhz Big. So far, peformance down but for using low-mid intensive user very enough. I love radon kernel cause fast charge, with Qualcomm QC3.0 charger certified.

First time Sony user

Hey, i got a sweet deal for brand new Z5 compact, and bought it for a family member (previous phone galaxy s4 mini)
Compact size (and good reviews) were deciding factors
I'm a long time nexus user and don't know anything about Xperia in general, apart from reviews for Z5..
Can you help me with a bit of tl;dr what should i expect from software in general, and Z5 model? quirks, problems, something i should watch out for or modify?
I'm not gonna root/rom if not necessary, want a stock stable android and maybe cosmetic changes with a good launcher or similar
any help appreciated
Overheating, bad camera image quality, battery drain, lagging due to old CPU, 2G ram and aggressive throttling..
My advice would be get newer model instead like X Compact or XZ1 Compact if you have higher budget.
I'm a old Nexus 4 user too. I bought my Z5c when my Nexus 4's screen become unusable after it was dropped. I've installed official Lineage OS on my Z5c. I'm not a heavy phone user but occasionally in the day i look up reddit use firefox to read/search something and listen music when I'm using subway and of course use Whatsapp to communicate with my friends. I don't use Facebook on my phone. Installing Lineage rooting via Magisk and installing Brevent app for increasing battery life made phone my favorite. It endures my daily use for 2 days without charging sometimes it may go 2 and 1/2. The features of stock rom like Bravia engine were not interesting for me and considering the bloatware included it's hard to call that they are worth it. I generally don't use my phone as camera but sometimes take quick photos of the landscapes with scenic views. Camera quality is enough for me. I'm not taking 4K videos w/ my phone anyway. There is a feature of stock ROM that I miss though. The iOS like selection magnifier for text boxes was a killer feature of stock ROM. RAM usage dropped 200 MiB and responsiveness of the phone is significantly increased with LOS. It is a great phone overall.

It's gonna be very very lightweight usage, basic stuff only, so only thing that concerns me is that 'battery drain' after nougat update?
Is that issue fixed with some recent updates or still a problem?

Huh man, now i'm thinking of Lineage ^^ i know it's better os, but i used nexus because i didn't have time to constantly updating my roms and guessing will my camera work properly with new one etc.
If i decide to flash Lineage, can you tell me is it streamlined and documented properly for Z5 so i don't waste hours on research?
And also, is nougat battery drain still present? any major bugs in Lineage for Z5?
tnx for replies!
I'm running latest stock rooted. Having overheating and lags when browsing webs..
wipe calvik data cache...remove bloatware (spotify, moviecreator...) try again...after that the phone works as it should
100% use LineageOS. Performance and battery life life are phenomenal compare to the latest stock firmware.

I just tested to see how much battery drain will happen when phone is not in use, no sim card, connected to my wifi, with stamina turned off.
It's siting on my desk for 3 days, currently 45% battery left, thats not bad right? i'm sure that with sim card it will be more, but still..
If i go for LOS Can you tell me what version should i go for, for most stable performance? I see there is Stable Release Date: 2017-08-27..
tnx

Hey, look for the official LineageOS rom. There was an unofficial that was compiled by someone but it seems that he's stopped.
I've recently gotten an Z5 Compact too.

Overall it's a good camera in Z5C.
Camera quality is pretty much same same for Z5 Compact and X Compact, the XZ1 Compact has somewhat better image quality though.

do u guys recommend this phone over the pro 3 elite? (x722)

my x720 died and i not sure about what to do.. ppl talk about poor battery on this phone. will it stand like 4 hours straight watching streams and still have a spare battery left with a good battery optimization rom?
Battery life is ****. Never had more than 4 hrs sot.
On aicp 8.1 right now, about 3 hrs sot.
It really depends on what do you do on a daily basis. If you value the battery more than a 1440p screen go for the pro 3 elite but if you want to get into VR, watch some high quality videos or play games you can get the max 2.
I don't have any problems with my battery even though its so small for that display and if you're into custom ROMs I don't think that you will find any for the elite version.
EDIT: I'm not quite sure if the last part is true because sd820 and the sd821 are kinda different but they use the same codename (msm-8996).

False. Cross-device support is alive and well for all 3 versions [X720/X722 Elite/X727]

I don't have any problems with my battery even though its so small for that display and if you're into custom ROMs I don't think that you will find any for the elite version.
EDIT: I'm not quite sure if the last part is true because sd820 and the sd821 are kinda different but they use the same codename (msm-8996).

Heyyo, well said for x2 vs pro 3 Elite. I agree with this.
The Le Pro3 Elite does lack NFC like the Le Max 2 so if you value NFC for stuff like Android Pay you might wanna pay the extra for a Le Pro3.
The Le Pro3 Elite is officially supported on LineageOS 14.1 and 15.1 as of the end of January 2018 and same for any ROM that uses the same code base or imported the changes.

False. Cross-device support is alive and well for all 3 versions [X720/X722 Elite/X727]

Both phones will suit you but you have to choose between better battery or a bigger crisper screen.

If you're on a tight budget, you might want to consider Nubia M2 (SD625, Super AMOLED display, downside: Android 6 rom) or Xiaomi Redmi Note 4X (SD625, Treble LOS rom, Franco kernel available) for those purposes.
I think you can get good battery life on stock rom

ROM for battery life and where is the debloated MIUI rom?

Hello,
I'm looking for a rom and a good kernel that is very good on battery life. Also I want to try out the debloated MIUI. Where can I find it?
And is it true that the MIUI rom is the best for battery life?
try Xiaomi Eu rom ,with notification mod and restricted every app that you don't need so much. you might wanna clean rom more ,use lucky patcher and cleaned the rom. i did it my self.. trust me much better..
I am myself testing with Pixel Experience and the LKT magisk module. so far 2h of screen on time with only 20% battery drain, so i'd expect 8 to 10 hours of SoT just like that.
I've also heard malakas kernel has superceded Sphynx/FrancoKernel as the most battery friendly kernel you can install, but i have not tested that.
In the past, xiaomi.eu has given me better battery life than lineage/phh-treble in previous devices ( Mi MAX 3 ) so maybe combining xiaomi.eu + malakas kernel + lkt and maybe disabling half of your cores would give you a lot more SoT. I'll definitely post my findings in a few weeks on the SoT thread after i compare my current setup vs what i've just proposed.

I definitely want to read that post. Maybe I will try that later. Seems like this kernel is the best in terms of battery life now, is it?

zero ads in apps, advanced reboot menu, dark mode , zero miui bloatware yeah far better..

At 299 euros, it's cheaper than getting, let's say, the BQ Aquaris X2 or the Zenfone Max Pro M2 for some unholy reason. and as a glorified Discord machine and music player... 2 high perf cores and 2 low perf cores are more than enough. and i get a battery boost on top of that!

i let them run in lower frequency,i get good backup,but only problem with miui rom is it take long time to go deep sleep

There is this app called Naptime from the author of Franco Kernel that forces doze no matter what as soon as your screen goes off. so that should also help with miui rom sleep delays.
as for running themn on a lower frequency, i've found that chrome loves crash (locking the whole system up with it) if i make them go slow enough, so disabling half the cores at the stock speed seems to be doing the trick for me. Maybe both can be done within reason for some extra gains though
i think you should use revo os or miuipro.And uninstall apps magisk module terminal debloater or es file explorer.I am used pocof1 basic debloat.xml import terminal debloater and after other apps opened system apps and priv apps es file explorer andddddd delete folders

Considering deep sleep, would it be beneficial to go with NOS and Malakas kernel for even better battery? I mean there should be less bloatware and deep sleep could be less of a problem.
