LG Spirit 4G Pro Reviews

The LG Spirit 4G is one of the best offerings from MetroPCS in recent memory. At $199, it costs more than the bulk of MetroPCS's lineup, but the extra money goes a long, long way toward delivering an experience worth recommending. Nearly everything about the hardware is solid, and the screen, in particular, dazzles with its bright and crisp appearance. The signal performance is among the strongest I've seen from a MetroPCS phone, though the sound quality is a bit lacking. The battery performance is on par with other devices in this clas. What really makes the Spirit a good phone are the software customizations made by LG. Though I personally prefer stock Android, there's no doubt LG has made the Spirit a pleasing device to use thanks to the excellent customization options, fun-to-use camera, and animated home screens and menus. Unless you really want to spend twice as much money on a phone like last year's Samsung Galaxy S III (which, at this point in time, I wouldn't recommend), the LG Spirit 4G is the best device currently available from MetroPCS.

The LG Spirit 4G is the best deal you can get on an LTE smartphone for MetroPCS right now.

If $200 is way out of your budget, I suggest going for the $50 LG Motion 4G. You won't get the Spirit's big, bright screen, but for one-fourth of its price, you'll get a decent camera, the dual-core CPU, and Android 4.0. But, if you're looking to spend $200 anyway, the Spirit 4G is an excellent choice. As one of the few MetroPCS handsets that ship with Android 4.0, it's still a reasonably priced phone that I'd recommend over its like-priced rival, the ZTE Anthem 4G due to the faster processor and updated OS. And as I previously mentioned, the Spirit is an obvious choice over the next few smartphones that are just as behind as the Anthem 4G, but way more expensive.
