I bought the LG Optimus GT 540 mobile phone for my Girlfriend and possess themselves a Samsung Android smartphone in the same price class. So I can compare the two phones directly. Weight and size are similar to Sher. The facilities at the LG phone is clearly better: - Higher-resolution camera - Higher screen resolution but ... It is operated via the touch screen. And here is the big drawback of this phone. It takes a lot of pressure to scroll, or tap buttons. This makes the typing of numbers, SMS, etc works much longer, and selecting (eg by people in the address book) will be more difficult. What makes a great camera and the large display when the operation is not good? I would not buy this phone again.
