LG Optimus Black

The LG Optimus Black combines style with performance in a sleek, sexy package to sport a design that is well, just perfect. The device is a good, pocket-compatible size and is beautifully thin. The smooth lines and spanning glass minimise obstructions, maintaining its elegant look. Featuring the new NOVO display, the phone’s 4” screen can produce up to an impressive 700 nits brightness – a great feature that offers a lighter and richer viewing experience, especially when outdoors. In terms of specifications, the Optimus Black doesn’t particularly stand out from other current Android smartphones, relying instead on its visual appeal. The only two drawbacks of this device are its minimal amount of internal storage and the fact that it’s still running FroYo. Overall, the Optimus Black is like all LG phones – they are what they are and don’t pretend to be anything else. This phone is designed to be small and beautiful, which it is, but it still packs a little punch for good measure.
