Hi everyone

I 'm thinking to buy this smartphone but after read one review at gsmArena I got some doubts...

I was shocked at the alleged missing of bass at the 3.5mm output.

Anyone can tel-me, based on your experience, if this is true??

Or they made this test with some equalization that make this to append.

I was a bit nervous about buying the phone after reading about audio quality at Gsmarena but i did anyway. When i first listened to music in the built in player, i was disappointed because the sound was lacking compared to my mp3 player, but then i tried Poweramp and dialed a little custom EQ and increased the bass a bit, and the sound is awesome. I could say it's even better then my mp3 player. It just needs a good setting to sound great. I listen to metal mostly.

And btw, don't use the headphones that came with the phone, buy something better.

So good news. ;)

And about the camera quality??

at night??

Well, as you know, cameras in phones are mostly crap, so never expect miracles. I am an amateur photographer so i am used to good image quality from DSLR's with cameras and lenses that cost thousands of dollars so of course i have to say the quality is crap because the phone image sensors are so tiny that they will probably never be good at higher sensitivity (ie. in the dark).

However, i can compare it to my old phone, a Nokia N79 which had a 5mp camera with Carl Zeiss "lens" and it's at least not worse. And my co-worker has a Nokia C7 with 8MP and i can't say his is any better. I have gotten usable images of my 6 month old child indoors without flash and it wasn't too bad.

So if i am honest, it's probably about the same quality as most of the stuff out there. It's equally crappy :P

Here are some pictures in different scene modes of the camera:

They are like my old HTC Desire. ;)

I'm a little afraid to be disappointed, compared with the HTC.

The pictures are cool.

This is also a temporary situation. When leave a better smartphone by paragraphs (a dual core) I buy another.

My HTC was lost in shipping for warranty service.

They returned me all the money, but rather wait a few months and buy another mobile phone with the points.

I was to buy the Samsung Galaxy S II, but did not want to pay 500€.

So I buy the LG for 165€ and sell it later.

LG is competing with top phone producing companies nowadays . It has started to launch smart phones. It has launched Optimus phone based on an Android OS. It is an amazing phone with best quality of the camera. I have checked link given by you. Its sound system is awesome. I feel like I am setting alone in a music room.
