LeEco has yet again teamed up with Coolpad to launch their second smartphone - Cool 2. The Coolpad Cool 2 is the new product made from the collaboration of the brands after the Cool 1 which was well-received in Nepal. We cannot consider the new smartphone as the direct successor to the Cool 1, but it still displays its own set of perks.
The Coolpad Cool 2 features a 5.7 inch 2.5D curved 18:9 ratio HD+ display. One of the major highlights of the smartphone is definitely it's splash resistant body. The Cool 2 is powered by a 64-bit MediaTek MT6750 Octa-Core SoC. It is equipped with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of expandable storage.
The rear side the phone includes a fingerprint sensor, alongside a 13MP + 0.3MP dual camera setup with flash. At the front, you get an 8MP camera. The smartphone also offers a headphone jack and a micro USB port.
Backing the device is a 3200mAh battery packaged under a 154.7x73.3x9mm metal body. The Cool 2 runs on Android Nougat 7.0 with a custom UI on top. The phone also doesn't seem to support any type of quick charging mechanism.
Pricing and availability are yet to be disclosed, but as the smartphone is a lower midrange device, it will be priced below the $150 threshold. As for the availability, it's expected to be available in China before the end of next month. Also, there is a high chance this phone will be China exclusive, so do not get your hopes high yet.
