Leagoo S8 Pro Review: specs and features, camera quality test, gaming benchmark, user opinions and photos

Leagoo S8 Pro - expensive pleasure

Sometimes even a small success makes the company's self-esteem rise to heaven. Unfortunately, often after gaining self-confidence, a company experiences an equally serious decline. And, judging by the hero of today's review, a Chinese manufacturer of smartphones can lie in wait for a similar situation.

The design of the novelty is magnificent even for the highest price segment. The minimal screen frames, extremely rational use of the front surface area, a beautifully designed dual camera and a durable metal body are unlikely to leave anyone indifferent. The 5.99-inch 2160 x 1080 pixel high-resolution OGS panel is ready to compete in picture quality with advanced flagships. The highest brightness, excellent contrast, incredible detail of the image - it is impossible to find fault with the display.

But the technical parameters are not so impressive. The performance of the Mediatek MT6757T processor, 6GB of RAM and the Mali-T880MP2 video chip is sufficient for the resource-intensive OC Android Nougat interface, and for graphically advanced games like World of Tanks, Asphalt 8. But the buyer will have no margin for the future. And if it’s difficult to do anything with the hardware, the 64GB internal storage is easy to expand with microSD cards.

But the 13-megapixel front camera will definitely fall in love with selfie fans. Capacious battery at 3050mAh allow a couple of days is not worried about the presence paverbanka bag. Support for 4G, OTG, a fingerprint scanner add appeal to the phablet, but within the cost category it is inferior to competitors in photographic and gaming abilities, which practically destroys its chances of becoming a hit.
