LG Optimus Vu II Review

(LG-F200) Score: 65.6 / 100

LG Optimus Vu II is a high-level cellphone released some years ago, in 2012, including a comfortable 5-inches touch-screen, a very fast 1.5 gigahertz Dual-Core processing unit, an 8 mega-pixels back-facing camera and a 1.3 MP front camera.

This cellphone is incredibly thin and comfortable, with a thickness of just 0.37". The LG Optimus Vu II just has 5.2 inches long, but it still manages to hold a 5 inches display. LG did a very good optimization job making this cellphone weight only 5.61 ounces. The LG Optimus Vu II is for sale in 3 different color options, black, pink and white.

This phone has a interesting 5" screen with a 1024 x 768 resolution, which makes all pictures and videos look great. Its screen uses IPS LCD capacitive technology, and allows multi-touch gestures.

LG decided to equip this device using a Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Plus MSM8960 system chip, backed up by a high speed Dual-Core processing unit ticking at 1.5 gigahertz and a large 2 GB RAM memory. Graphic intensive apps and games generally eats lots of CPU time, so this cellphone also has an Adreno 225 GPU speeding at 400 megahertz to help with that calculations. This phone has a 32 GB impressive internal storage and an SD memory slot, which allows you to install lots of apps, games, songs, pictures and videos without even thinking about how much memory is left.

This device provides Wi-Fi connection (although it can't share it with other devices acting as a mobile hotspot), LTE (4G) high performance internet connection and the fastest 3G internet connection, using HSPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. The LG Optimus Vu II works with a SIM card for GSM carriers.

This phone is equipped with two cameras, an 8 mega-pixels back camera and a 1.3 mega-pixels front facing camera. It is capable of shooting videos up to 1920x1080 (Full HD) at 30 frames per second. In addition, the camera features a couple of useful features like auto-focus, flash and geo tagging.

The LG Optimus Vu II also comes with a great numbre of useful features like NFC (to trigger actions, transfer data or make payments by holding your cellphone close to another NFC device or tag), Infrared Port, Bluetooth (4.0), GPS (Global Positioning System) and TV Broadcast, and plenty of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.

This phone packs a 2150 mAh incredible replaceable battery, which isn't too much for a phone like this. This cellphone has an aproximate 8.3 hours talk time and a 400 hours stand by time according to LG.

This phone is really overpriced considering it costs $ 249, and some similar cellphones cost a lot less than that. No matter if you will use it as a work device, need a cellphone for gaming, are a photography fan or want a social device, this device is definitely a very good choice .
