There is certainly no shortage of Android phones available on the market today. While most manufacturers try to obtain their competitive edge by using the latest hardware, LG decided to opt for affordability. Even though the LG Optimus One may be labelled “low end” and “cheap”, which implies that the phone is inferior, this phone is deceptively useful in spite of its comparatively modest hardware specs.

With only a 600MHz processor and 512MB of SDRAM it manages to run many apps very smoothly, even faster than some of the higher end phones. An unofficial update to Android, Gingerbread, should make the performance even better, whilst at the same time considerably reducing the battery consumption.

While the LG Optimus One cannot compete with the higher end Android phones such as the Motorola Atrix and HTC EVO 3D, it is certainly a great value for money and a very good choice for someone buying their first Android smartphone. Even though its touchscreen is capacitive, it still responds to a stylus as well as finger input.

LG Optimus 2X runs on Android 2.2 and sports a 4” 480 x 800 WVGA touchscreen offering brilliant display quality. With a 1.3 mega pixel front facing camera, wi-fi, 3G connect and SD card slot in addition to the 8GB built memory as standard, the LG Optimus 2X, while definitely not budget, is nowhere near the most costly smartphone on the market. Amongst the aforementioned, you also get a duel-core processor with 1080P video recording and DLNA streaming.

The 8 mega pixel camera is housed around back and is supported by a single LED offering full HD video. Below the cover, along with the 1500mAh battery, are housed the SIM and microSD slots with the option to increase the 8GB internal memory, if required. Videos can be uploaded directly and with speed to YouTube and social networking sites.

LG have used some customisation on the interface to give the LG Optimus 2X its own unique style but which does not interfere at all with the initial workings and speed of Android 2.2. The touch response from the Optimus 2X is really very good and the display remains impressive and professional. Navigation is easy and quick and moving from app to app is done at lightning speed. Give the home button a long press and you can access recently used apps.

The exterior design of the Optimus 2X is also appealing and the device feels substantial and robust without any heaviness. The Optimus 2X is comfortable to use and easy to store.

With its sophisticated body and Android Froyo 2.2, the LG Optimus Black combines look and performance, resulting in a first class phone. It comes with a 4 inch Nova display touchscreen that offers a display quality that surpasses LCD and a list of features that rank the phone above others of its kind.

The GoodThe phone carries a number of useful original apps and widgets, while allowing users to access others from the Android store. It combines speed and userfriendliness, making it easy to access apps like the camera, music library and web radio players.

Users can access messages (emails included) from their locked screens, answer incoming calls just by holding the ‘Gesture’ button while shaking the phone, activate mute simply by flipping it over and move the text cursor by tapping the sides.

The user can video call using a 2mp front camera, or use the 5mp rear camera to capture high quality videos. Buyers get WI-FI capabilities, USB port, Bluetooth, an eAAC+, ACC+ Wav, AAC and MP3 audio player, H.264, H.263 and MP4 videos are also supported and the 3.5mm headphone jack caters for all.

The BadIt is not without fault. Firstly, it is impossible to upgrade from Froyo to Gingerbread (2.3), pictures may be dark since, despite the light sensor, the phone doesn’t recognized light changes also, it may be best to use it on stills.

The VerdictOverall, its striking resemblance to the iPhone, inability to compete with a host of dual-core smartphones and the absence of HDMI output are among the biggest drawbacks however, the LG Optimus Black is a great phone.

Mobile Phone Reviews :LG Optimus 2X Review ? how does it compare?

The LG Optimus 2X is the world’s first smartphone to feature a dual-core processor. While this does not make a massive difference in speed to the interface of the phone – high-end smartphones already run seamlessly – it does mean that full 1080p HD video recording is seen for the first time on a phone. Furthermore, the acceleration of Flash applications means that the LG Optimus 2X seems more like a computer than a phone. The HDMI connectivity on the Optimus 2X ensures video clips and photos can be viewed on any HD-ready device with outstanding results. HDMI connectivity is widely tipped to be a standard feature of smartphones in times to come, although LG is one of the first to introduce this feature.

Out of the box, the LG Optimus 2X comes equipped with version 2.2 of Android’s operating system, although Gingerbread can easily be installed via on-screen prompts. For such a high-performance phone, the size is surprisingly small. The phone boasts a 4-inch screen, which is of average size for a high-end device, although it is just 9.9mm thick, like the Galaxy S.

One downside to the phone is that LG has only fitted a TFT display rather than the ever-popular super AMOLED screen. This is rather surprising given LG’s status within the TV world and the performance capabilities of the device.

There is no denying this phone is revolutionary, mainly because of its HD video recording via the 8-megapixel camera, although the other big companies are already working on their answer to the LG Optimus 2X.

LG Optimus Black reviews have called this phone the “ideal” Android phone. The device is certainly getting its fair share of attention. The Optimus Black smartphone has consumers and tech fans excited for several reasons.

First of all, the phone has a sharp look. It is elegant and slim, with a nice black colouring and sleek overall design. It also has a bright and spacious built-in display. The LG Optimus Black can take decent quality pictures and videos with its 5-megapixel camera as well. Every aspect of the phone symbolizes the concepts of simplicity and cutting-edge technology.

The Optimus Black is lightweight at 109 grams and thin at 9.2mm. The phone also features a Nova Display, an IPS screen with a vast range of brightness capabilities extending to 700 nits. The screen is not quite as bright and clear as that of an iPhone or iPad, but it is a step up from most LCD screens.

The camera in the phone, while lacking the number of megapixels found in other phones’ cameras, performs very well. It takes clear shots, even of objects or people that are in motion. However, colours are something of an issue. The camera is not always completely faithful to an object’s original colouring.

LG Optimus Black deals can be had via the phone’s tariff. It is possible to combine the purchase of the phone with the purchase of a messaging, calling, and data plan in order to maximize both the experience of the phone and the amount of savings possible.
