LG Optimus G E975
LG OPTIMUS G E975 REVIEW
Taking
over from the LG Optimus G, the LG Optimus G E975 was officially announced back
in November but MWC 2012 is the first chance we've had to get hands-on with the
new flagship device. The LG Optimus G E975, also known as LG Optimus G E973, is
a high end touchscreen smartphone with many innovative features. This is the
version of Optimus G launched in the Indian market. While the Optimus G
launched in other countries came loaded with Android ICS, this version comes
out of the box with Jelly Bean OS. The screen is spot on, too, with a 4.7 inch
TrueHD In-Plane Switching (IPS) display using the 15:9 aspect ratio, which
results in a resolution of 1280×768, a little wider than the typical 1280×720
we’re seeing on competing smartphones. With the slightly bigger display.
Corning’s scratch-resistant Gorilla Glass 2 protects this element, just in case
you plan on leaving it in a bag with keys, though it may not save you from a
drop to the hard ground. Connections on the Optimus G include 4G LTE, as well
as WiFi 802.11 a/b/g/n over a dual-band antenna, Bluetooth 4.0 with A2DP, DLNA,
Near-Field Communication (NFC), GPS, and Miracast, which will only work if you
have one of the Miracast boxes to plug in your TV, available as an extra. Over
in the camera department, you’ll find a cutting-edge 13 megapixel autofocus
camera with flash, while the front camera sits at 1.3 megapixel, perfect for
those selfies. As per usual with modern smartphones, there are very few
buttons, and you’ll find only a volume rocker on the left, a power button on
the right, and three soft buttons back, home, and menu on the bottom front of
the handset just under the screen. Ports are much the same, small in number,
with only a 3.5mm jack up top and a microUSB, which also takes care of HDMI
with an MHL plug on the very bottom. A microSIM tray can be ejected on the left
side, and the battery rated for 2100mAh cannot be removed. The first proper
premium phone we’ve seen from LG in a while, the Optimus G certainly has our
attention. The Optimus G Pro is an impressive handset offering up super slick
Android Jelly Bean and a top notch range of features.
