LG OPTIMUS LTE2 REVIEW


There is no official word on an Australian release, but the LG Optimus LTE2 should hit Korean shelves in June. LG plans to release at least four LTE smartphones in Australia by the early part of 2013, so its very plausible the LTE2 could be one of those. It’s a pretty huge phone, but feels light and thin in your hand. Wouldn’t really put it in the phablet (phone + tablet) category, but it is certainly not your iPhone size. It sports a 4.7 inch True IPS HD Display, which is very awesome! It sports a resolution of 1280 x 720, so it has very clear and crisp text. It has good colors especially when you toggle the brightness setting, but the sunlight still affects it, like most smartphones with this screen. 720p is nothing to scoff at, and while 1080p is being developed on devices such as the HTC Droid DNA and Samsung S4, it is still a pretty respectable screen. It has a pixel density of about 312 PPI, so it is on par with Apple’s Retina Display for the iPhone 4/4S. It has NFC capability, so wireless charging and tags are certainly applicable here. It sports an 8 megapixel LED flash camera on the back, and a 1.3 megapixel front facing camera. I’ll do a little section on the camera’s features with the modes and some sample shots. It has two grills on the bottom for the speakers. Sound is good, but not too loud when comparing it to other phones like the iPhone. One feature I like is that this handset comes with Dolby Enhancement, so for music geeks and buffs, when you plug in your earphones or headphones, you can access this feature for a more surround sound feel from your device. Now, the phone comes in Android 4.0.4 which is Ice Cream Sandwich, however, LG has recently released an update for Android 4.1 or  Jellybean. It’s pretty smooth to run on, due to Project Butter taking effect. On top of the Android OS is LG’s own UI (user interface), which is the Optimus. It’s pretty nice. Widgets and Home screens. Pretty typical affair. Also partly to thank is the impressive specs underneath the hood of this smartphone. It’s running on a dual core 1.5 Ghz Krait S4 Snapdragon and it has a very generous 2 GB of RAM. It sports the Adreno 225 Graphics chip. It’s not exactly quad core, but it can still multi-task and play games with the best of them. Most of the applications built for Android aren’t really coded for quad core, so until then, this phone is definitely still speedy. No noticeable lag even when multi-tasking. The back has that matte type of feel. It’s plastic, but doesn’t feel like plastic. Removable back and removable battery. Sports a mini-sim. The battery size is at 2150 mAh, so it’s of a very respectable size. All in all, I am pretty happy with this phone. First time to grasp the Android experience, since I was pretty much all Apple and iOS before. I’m glad to say that the customization and freedom to edit and tinker around has made the Android experience that much more amazing.
