LG OPTIMUS L9 P760 REVIEW
LG Announced LG Optimus L9 P760 on August 2012 and it will release on end of 2012. The LG Optimus L9 comes with IPS display that has a 540x960 qHD resolution that makes for a respectable 245 ppi density. We have seen some really excellent display from LG and LG has really made its name with its recently released excellent display handsets, and of course Optimus L9 is no different from that. Despite the fact that LG Optimus L9 does not have the highest resolution, it provides bright and vibrant displays with supers viewing angles thanks to its IPS technology. You will not have any problem in using Optimus L9 in any lighting condition. Furthermore, the clarity is also good enough. The L9 tried to emulate the style of more expensive phones with a metal-looking plastic edge, although that illusion vanished when you picked up the device and felt the plastic heft. The L9 is a bit more successful in pulling off that trick, and while it retains a thinner, metallic plastic edge, it looks more like a black slab phone that doesn't scream "budget." While it fairly slim at 9.1mm, we're not sure it matches up the "sophisticated" label that LG's marketing department slapped on it. The front of the device is sleek and glossy, although the LG and T-Mobile logos at the top under the glass detract a bit from that. A slightly raised, oblong Home button at the bottom is the only thing that punctuates the Corning Gorilla Glass 2 front, with the Back and Menu keys under the glass on the touchscreen, and dark until you tap them. The sides are beveled, with the left side holding the volume rocker switch, which you can push in the middle to activate QuickMemo, while the right side only features the power button. The top holds the headset port and a sub-microphone, while the bottom is reserved for the charging port and the main microphone. The back side of the device is a improvement over the L7, featuring a stacked design with the camera, flash, and LG logo lined up on the top third of the back, and the horizontal speakerphone grill at lower left. There is a thumbnail notch on the back, just by the charging port, which you can use to easily lever the back off. Inside, in a surprisingly clean layout, you can access the micro SIM card, microSD card slot (accepts up to 32GB), and the removable battery. The LG Optimus L9 is skinned with LG familiar Optimus UI and based on Android 4.0.4. Though there is nothing new to talk about yet there are some unique features that Optimus L9 boasts. These features include QuickMemo that allows you to get down screenshots and SmartShare that allows you to stream content to a DLNA device. On the other hand, it does lack some of the Optimus G’s standout features that include QSlide and Live Zooming. With a 5 megapixel camera, the LG Optimus L9 produces acceptable and impressive results. Although, when you look at the images at full resolution you will find that details are blurry. On the other hand, color reproduction is fairly perfect. Outdoor images are better than indoor shots where even in strong light images appeared to be grainy. For Facebook and other sharing services, camera results are just fine but on the whole the camera is a bit of disappointment. You can record 1080p videos that turn out to be fairly well. However, background noise can be devastating. The camcorder similar to the camera, also lacks details but nevertheless is able to keep up with moving objects fairly well. The LG Optimus L9 multimedia contains media and video players that without any surprise perform just like you would expect them to. Moreover, Google Play Music is also pre-loaded for cloud streaming as well as local playback moreover there are a lot of other choices or alternatives available in the Play Store. The LG Optimus L9 has a snappy dual-core CPU, 4G, Android 4.0, and a 1080p HD camera. There is an FM radio on the LG Optimus L9 too with RDS support that you can use with a set of headphones or the loudspeaker. Either way, you need to plug in headphones as they act as an antenna. Performance wise as well, users will not have any problem as it is one of the more clear phones that we have tested so far. The voices are clear and loud and users do not have any problem in hearing the other party although they said there was a slight hollowness to it. With plenty of volume and natural voice reproduction, voices at the both end are great even with a noisy background, users will not have any problem in hearing their callers. The Optimus L9 runs on T-mobile’s 21Mbps network however it does not support the faster 42Mbps network. There are some other connectivity options too that include Wi-Fi, GPS and Bluetooth 3.0. It also offers Wi-Fi direct for easy file-sharing. On the other hand, the handset lacks NFC that is found in the smaller L7 and several other Android handsets. As far as web browsing is concerned, no matter which browser you – the stock browser and Chrome – the results are just as you would expect. To be specify page loads quickly and panning, tapping and pinching produce good reliable results. During our video playback battery drain test, it lasted 7.75 hours. Anecdotally, it had a disappointing battery life. After spending a few hours playing games, watching videos, and surfing the Internet, the battery drained by a majority of its reserves and it needed a charge about halfway through the workday.
