LG G Pro 2 Review

Score: 74.8 / 100

LG G Pro 2 is a very powerful Android phone released many years ago, counting with an enormous 5.9-inches display, an exceptional 2.26 gigahertz Quad-Core CPU, a 13 MP back camera and a 2.1 megapixels front-facing camera. Let's take a deeper view of what this cellphone can do.

LG decided to equip this phone with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 MSM8974 system chip, packing a high performance Quad-Core processing unit running at 2260 MHz and a great 3 GB of RAM memory. Graphic calculations often eats a lot of processor time, so this device has an extra 450 megahertz Adreno 330 GPU to help the CPU with those tasks. A great advantage of this cellphone is its big 32 GB internal memory and an external memory slot, allowing you to install hundreds of applications and even the largest games currently available without worrying about running out of space.

LG made this phone in lots of colors like black, gray, red and white. This phone is much lighter than what you would expect from a cellphone of this size. The LG G Pro 2 is extremely thin and good-looking, with a thickness of just 0.33 inches. This device is a very compact cellphone, considering it has a 5.9 inches screen and it's only 6.22 inches long.

LG equipped this cellphone with a spectacular 5.9-inches display, and a 1920 x 1080 (Full HD) resolution, which makes everything look completely perfect. Its display uses IPS LCD capacitive technology, and allows multi-touch gestures.

This phone provides Wi-Fi capability (and it can share it with other devices acting as a mobile hotspot), 4G (LTE) high performance internet connection and also HSPA+ connectivity, that is a lower speed 4G variation and fast 3G connection type, supported by HSDPA, HSUPA and EDGE technologies. This phone works with a Micro SIM card for GSM services.

This cellphone features two cameras, a 13 mega-pixels back-facing camera and a 2.1 megapixels front camera. While it's 13 mega-pixels might seem incredible the back-facing camera has a very little 0.326797-inches sensor which makes photos have less details and worse lighting than they should. This phone also films videos in 4K 3840x2160 at 30 frames per second. This camera also counts with lots of useful characteristics: flash, fast burst mode, auto-focus, optical image stabilization, HDR mode, face detection shooting and geo tagging.

The LG G Pro 2 has a great 3200 mAh battery that provides the LG G Pro 2 an incredible battery duration.

The LG G Pro 2 also features a lot of great features as NFC, Infrared Port, Bluetooth (4.0) and GPS, and plenty of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Compass.

This phone may not be a very good choice considering it costs 249 dollars, and other similar devices are quite cheaper than that. This cellphone is definitely the correct option for you no matter if you want this cellphone to play games, will use it mostly for social networks, want it for work or you love taking pictures.
