Super TVs.
Noted LeEco's Atul Jain, COO Smart Electronics Business, "We are humbled by the
consumers' response to our Superphones in the flash sales. We recognize that there is a
huge pent-up demand for our flagship killer - Le 1s and the super premium Le Max, which
has been the prime motivator for us to come up with this LeEco Day. We are confident that
this innovative shopping carnival will witness unprecedented popularity among consumers."
Starting LeEco Day, flagship killer Le 1s will be available on Flipkart without

seconds in the 3 flash sales and another incredible record of 20,28,000 (20.2 lakhs)

unparalleled growth and momentum within just a month of launch and often referred to as
the LeEco Phenomenon.
Buyers of LeEco's Superphones can expect a content ecosystem to be uploaded into its
android-based EUI system in the 2nd quarter of this year since the company has already
