It runs Android 4.2 with LG’s own user interface on top. Its 1,920 x 1,080 pixels shine brightly in the IPS panel, and I found that everything, from reading emails and eBooks to watching video, was a really pleasant experience. LG has overcome the need to pick the handset up from a desk to resume from the lock screen by letting you double tap the screen instead. I found it great when changing music volume with the phone in my pocket, though.
There’s a gentle sculpted effect to help you find the power button by touch alone – and this works well enough, but still, the arrangement takes a bit of getting used to. The section in which these buttons sit is an extension of the camera lens, and the look isn’t off-putting at all. The top and right edges are clear – so now, I bet you are wondering where the power and volume buttons are.
The bottom edge of the chassis houses a couple of speaker grilles, the headset slot and microUSB slot.
The 16GB version is the model we can get hold of in the UK, and this will (presumably) lose a fair bit of storage to LG – you won’t get the full 16GB. I was actually sent the 32GB version of this handset for review, and it had 24GB free.
