LG Doubleplay Review

(C729) Score: 49.4 / 100

LG Doubleplay is a decent quality cellphone released some years ago, in 2011, packed with a 3.5 inches multi-touch screen, a 5 megapixels back-facing camera and a processing unit clocking at 1 gigahertz. Let's take a better view of what this phone can give us.

LG decided to equip this phone with a Qualcomm Snapdragon chip, including a powerful 1 gigahertz processing unit and 512 MB of RAM memory. This phone counts with a 2 GB internal memory, a medium amount that should be enough for the vast majority of users knowing that this cellphone also has an external memory card slot to store photos and videos.

This phone is quite thick compared to nowadays cellphones, being as thick as 0.63". While this cellphone is as big as 4.8 inches long, it only packs a much smaller 3.5" screen. In this case, LG decided not to care about this cellphone weight at all, leaving it live with a weight of 6.77 oz.

This cellphone is only equipped with a 5 mega-pixels back facing camera. This cellphone can also capture videos in HD 1280x720. Additionally, this cellphone's camera also includes a few good features: flash, face detection shooting, auto-focus and geo tagging.

This cellphone includes a good 3.5 inches screen with a 480 x 320 resolution, making everything look quite nice. Its screen uses TFT capacitive technology, and allows multi-touch for gestures like pinch and zoom.

This cellphone uses a medium 1500 mAh Li-Ion battery, which is quite poor for a cellphone like this. This cellphone has a reported 280 hs stand by time and a 3.3 hours talk time.

This phone offers wi-fi capability (although it can't provide it to other devices around, acting as a mobile hotspot) and the fastest 3G connectivity, using HSDPA, HSUPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. This cellphone uses a SIM card to use GSM services.

The LG Doubleplay also comes with some interesting characteristics as Bluetooth (3.0) and GPS, and Proximity Sensor.

The LG Doubleplay is not very convinient considering it is sold for 220 dollars, and many similar cellphones are being sold for much less than that. If you buy this phone you also receive Battery, charger and USB cable and 2GB microSD Card.
