LeEco’s global twitter handle has put out a tweet hinting at a special announcement on July 26. The message is very cryptic and seems to be about LeEco’s TV ecosystem, but that’s about all we can garner from the tweet.

We would surmise that the tweet refers to the launch of LeEco’s 4K Smart TVs, which have been expected to arrive since June. LeEco had said earlier that their TVs would arrive with “disruptive pricing” and that they would be launched in a wide-range of sizes and prices.
LeEco has already been working to bring a TV ecosystem to the country and their smartphones already integrate TV apps (LeVidi and YuppTV). In partnership with ErosNow and a handful of TV channels, these services offer on-demand streaming of movies, TV shows and viral videos, provided you subscribe.
The company itself is very big in China and in that country, even operate their own film company called Le Vision Pictures. Apparently, they offer some of their flagship 4K Smart TVs at below production costs as well.
We don’t know what they plan to offer in India and neither is LeEco saying anything about it. All they’re saying is “More details coming soon, but for now, we got to keep it top secret.”
