LG Optimus Sol Pro Reviews

Without any doubt, the LG Optimus Sol will have a hard time battling in the Android arena as there are plenty of similarly priced devices that do not skimp on features. Still, we have to admit that its Ultra AMOLED display is pleasing to the eye thanks to the saturated colors and deep blacks that it delivers. Besides, we are quite pleased with the way its slim, lightweight body feels in the hand, and with the above average in-call audio quality. But despite a number of positives, drawbacks is what the Optimus Sol has as well. For example, the internet browser simply feels unpolished as it struggles with heavy Adobe Flash content, and the camera performance is far from stunning. We find it hard to say that the Optimus Sol would be the best smartphone to invest your money in, especially when there is a plethora of identically priced devices you can choose from. The list of alternatives that we would recommend checking out includes the Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc S, which, with its curved design and 1.4GHz single-core ship, is both better-looking and more powerful than the Optimus Sol. But if you are looking for a device with a smaller footprint, the Xperia ray would be a great choice – it has both a catchy design and a better camera. Other options worth your attention are the Samsung Galaxy W, which comes with a speedier 1.4GHz processor, and the HTC Desire S, which is pretty identical to the Sol in terms of specs, but is a tad more stylish thanks to its aluminum unibody construction. Additionaly, the LG Optimus 2X would make a great alternative to the Sol as it is equipped with a snappy Tegra 2 dual-core chip, yet can be found at an identical price.
