Customer Review

The LG Optimus Black P970 has in my opinion, with the NOVA display the current best (for me a very important purchase criterion), even if the supposedly low power consumption does not apply; the battery with a rated load of 1500 mAh keeps your smartphone but a day at life. Who is not a hardcore gamer, will be satisfied with the single-core processor, which at any time allows smooth working.

Through the beveled edges, the extremely light and thin smartphone, despite the size very well in hand. Unfortunately, only plastic is used, but it does not act cheap. The back is insensitive to fingerprints.

The quality of the photos is good, the video contrast, below average. The internal, 1 GB memory provides plenty of room for Apps. Thanks to the support of Apps2SD they can also (partly) be outsourced.

The LG Optimus UI 2.0 own surface complements the Android standard to a few nice features (grouped by Apps, SmartDial) here and there but still in need of improvement is, (choice of words / translation "mistakes").

The G key is indeed versatile (scroll, scroll, zoom, lift, place, ...), so you do not have to smudge the screen with fingerprints. But much is just a nice gimmick. In the long term to use rather the long-standing operation with pinch-to-zoom & Co., as one can nevertheless operate more reliably.

All in all a very good device with the LG shows what they can, even if there could be improvements in some places. Let's see what brings the announced update to Android 2.3.

The only which I now still waiting, is (probably): Super-NOVA.
