LG GW520 Review
Score: 36.3 / 100
LG GW520 is a not very powerful device launched back in the year 2009, featuring a 3 megapixels back side camera and a little 2.8-inches display. But let's get into a bit more detail.
This phone is a little thick for current standards, being as thick as 0.63 inches. The LG GW520 is 4.19" long and 2.09" wide, it just holds a smaller 2.8 inches display. The LG GW520 is quite heavy comparing with today standards, with a weight of 4.43 oz.
LG designed this cellphone with a good 2.8" display, and a 400 x 240 resolution, giving this phone a decent graphical experience. This display uses TFT resistive technology, but it doesn't allow multi-touch gestures.
The LG GW520 only has a 3 megapixels back-facing camera. It is also able to shoot 320x240 QVGA videos at 15 frames per second.
The LG GW520 has 3G fast data connection, over HSDPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. The LG GW520 uses a SIM card to use GSM services.
This cellphone also includes a couple useful features like Bluetooth (2.1, EDR) and FM Radio, and Accelerometer.
This phone packs a small 950 mAh Li-Ion removable battery that provides the LG GW520 a below average battery life. This phone has a reported stand by time of 480 hours and a talk time of 5 hs.
This phone is being sold for 199 dollars, not a really offer for comparing with other similar devices.
