What Does the CLARITY Act Setback Mean for Crypto Regulation?
The US Senate’s failure to advance the CLARITY Act has left a major question around how digital assets will be regulated at the federal level. The procedural vote on September 15 ended 49-50, falling short of the 60 votes needed to move the bill forward. The legislation was intended to establish clearer boundaries between the SEC and CFTC and provide a broader framework for the crypto industry. The setback does not necessarily end the legislation, as a reconsideration motion remains possible, but it has pushed regulatory clarity back into focus. How important is legislation like the CLARITY Act for crypto’s long-term growth?

Automatic data blurring when sharing screenshots with friends
I think Samsung is really thoughtful with its privacy protection feature. I got really impressed while sending a utility bill layout image, and I noticed that it blurred my account number and home address when I was trying to share the link. I felt relieved that it saved my sensitive information and acted as a safety barrier.
Honest review of Le1s after 2 months of usage
Hi Guys, This is Rajesh and today I am sharing my views on the LeEco Le 1s that I have been using for the past month. Yes, we all know that LeEco, formerly known as Letv, launched two smartphones in the market - Le 1s and Le Max. The Le 1s is priced at Rs. 10999 and the Le Max (64GB) is priced at Rs. 32999. Le 1s is their lowest priced phone but at the same time gives features of a flagship phone. LeEco claims that they are selling Le 1s at lesser than BOM (Bill of Materials) price (which is more than Rs. 16000). Let’s move on to the review then. BUILD & DESIGN SCREEN & MULTIMEDIA CAMERA PERFORMANCE CONNECTIVITY MEMORY SOUND QUALITY PROS: CONS:
The first time I opened the box I was like “Wow, awesome!”, yes guys it looks great, it really looks fantastic. One of the most beautiful phones I have ever seen. The mirror-surfaced fingerprint sensor, a smart looking camera and all metal body - all these things make Le 1s a looker! It looks premium and it feels premium. The weight is a bit on the upper side but still with a 5.5-inch Full HD display and bezel-less design it is very handy and easy to use.
9/10
Le 1s comes with a 5.5-inch LCD IPS Display covered by Gorilla Glass 3. The display is great with awesome colours and contrast levels. It is sharp enough and watching Full HD videos on the display is a visual treat. Mediatek’s clear motion technology is there, so there is not even a single frame drop. It can compete with flagship phones for sure.
9/10
Le 1s comes with a 13 MP rear camera and a 5 MP front camera. Rear camera is an ISOCELL unit with PDAF and high aperture for low light capturing. Still, with all these features, this is where Le 1s suffers a bit. The daylight pictures are good with good details and natural colours but in lowlight the camera is just okay. The pictures turned out to be noisy and macro shots turned out to be “whitish” in low light. I also found some reddish tint on the photo. Front camera is good enough for video calling but for selfie lovers it will be a “hit or miss” as the camera works sometime good and sometime bad. Lots of software optimisation is needed in the camera section as the basic things like “beauty mode” is missing. I hope LeEco will release an OTA update which can rectify these issues. UPDATE: The latest OTA improved the camera experience by a huge margin – both front and rear cameras!
8.5/10
This is where Le 1s outshines every other smartphone in the same category. Le 1s has Mediatek’s current flagship 64-bit Octa Core Processor MT6795 Turbo (aka Helio x10 Turbo) clocked at 2.2 Ghz. Almost every other smartphone in this price range uses cheaper processors while LeEco uses this flagship processor. We can find this processor even in the flagship phone of HTC M9 (Which costs almost 45 K). Le 1s also has 3GB RAM with the system using almost 1.5 GB RAM but still the phone performs very well. No lag at all. Almost every high end game plays butter smooth. I have tested Asphalt 8 and Temple Run, both run fluidly. As far as the performance is concerned, it is really a beast. It warms a little bit, but that is common for all metal smartphones, so not a deal breaker for me.
9.5/10
Le 1s supports 2G/3G/4G networks in India. Everything is working fine. I didn’t experience any network issue so far. Bluetooth and Wi-Fi are up to the mark. Le 1s supports dual SIM - one micro and one nano. Both are working perfectly fine. A small negative side is that it doesn’t support VoLTE, so for Reliance Jio users it is a deal breaker. Still it satisfied me. Thumbs up!
8.5/10
Le 1s comes with 32 GB of internal memory which is really good considering the price. It doesn’t support SD cards but it supports OTG. I was able to connect a 64 GB pen drive through USB Type C OTG cable and it was really fast and I had a nice experience. Overall at this price range it is really good.
8/10
The external speakers perform well and after plugging in earphones, it sounds really great. It is superior to the competition in this price range. Soothing to the ears and a good option for audiophiles.
8.5/10
Stunning design
Premium Feel
Great Display
Good Speakers & Sound Quality
Okay Camera
No VoLTE
No External SD card support
Considering the price point of 10999, LeEco provides a super “value for money” product which can break all records in the Indian mobile market. As their tag suggests a #SuperPhone at a #SuperPrice…
Overall Rating: 8.5/10
Verdict: Paisa Wasool..!
Review of LeEco Le 1s - A Value For your Money!
Hello Folks, I want to share a review of my #Superphone LeEco Le 1s, so I waited for months before Design Display
judging this phone. Here is my review after 3 months of usage.
The phone has a full metal body which feels great in hands. Also, it has thin bezels on
the side which are almost non-existent. The phone has been well-crafted and no
other phone feels this unbelievably premium at this price point. No other
phones in this price segment looks as beautiful as Le 1s.
The firstthing you’d notice after its metal design is its display. It has an 1080P Full
HD screen, which is just brilliant. The images are crisp with a high colour
contrast and saturation. It feels great to watch media.
Fingerprint Sensor
There is a mirror finished fingerprint sensor on the back of the 1s, right above their branding.
Its accuracy is really good and its placement is just perfect. The index finger
naturally rests there no matter which hand you use it from and the device is
automatically unlocked.
4K Recording
One neat feature hidden is that the phone capable of recording 4K videos. It can be
enabled by going into the camera settings while inside the camera. Frankly it
is not the best 4K camera out there, but it gets the job done. Most of the
phone cameras out there which record 4K cost about INR 50,000. Also, it is a
clever addition to the phone because they sell 4K TVs in China on which these
videos can be consumed. They intend to bring these TVs to India soon!
Fast Charging
The LeEco Le 1s supports USB Type-C port at the bottom and it has a 3,000mAh battery which
is pretty average for everyday usage. It lasts half a day with heavy usage and
lasts full day if you are not a heavy user. It comes with support for fast
charging. My device is taking 1 hour 20 minutes to get fully charged.
IR Blaster
On the top-right on the phone, there is a small IR blaster placed and the phone can be
used as a remote with a dedicated app which is preinstalled in the device. This
app can be used to control many home appliances like TVs, AC, etc. Also, they
let you make your own remote with custom IR functions.
Dual SIM
LeEco 1s comes with dual SIM support, something that is common with most of the phones
these days. They can be accessed using a SIM eject tool and has support for one
Micro SIM and one Nano SIM. The best part of the dual SIM is that both the SIMs
support 4K at the same time!
Price
Last but not least, the final reason to get this beautiful handset is its price. The Le 1s
is priced at INR 10,999/- which is tad lower when compared to phones with
similar features. The LeEco company has claimed that they are selling this
phone with a loss i.e. for less than bill of materials.
