LG P970 Optimus Black

A real eye-catcher is the four major with a resolution of 800x480 pixels. 725 (candelas) per square marks the LG screen brightness a new record. By comparison to now beamed the display of the brightest m² with 573 cd /. Thus, the LG screen is also usually easy to read outdoors. Only in direct sunlight it gets difficult, especially disturbing reflections and fingerprints of the view.

Optimus has a Black out of the plastic housing, a light weight of 112 grams with a depth of one centimeter, it is very slim. Pressing the button WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) indicates to the mobile phone on the wireless router. A corresponding WPS button, many routers that will pit current Fritz WPS activated by pressing the wireless button - saves the password.


The operating system, the surface LG Optimus UI 2.0. Mini-programs (widgets) allow quick access to music, photos or Facebook messages. Here, the mobile response usually fast, although it does not have dual core processor of the sister model. Innovative: Holding down the button gestures can serve as a mobile phone by tilting or answer a call by shaking.

The camera provides only moderate quality, instead of the promised five have photos effectively only 3.4. Videos filmed in HD-quality mobile phone, bad grades there was the sound of the music player's test. Typical of Android phones this price range are the best Internet features. The browser passed all tests with flying colors, even Flash movies he showed any problems.

Facebook and Twitter are pre-installed. The navigation via Google Maps is running as usual, only with Internet connection - when abroad, is far too expensive. Premiere: The Optimus Black should be according to LG the world's first device with Wi-Fi-Direct technology. This allows different devices in the same room as mobile phones, notebooks and printers via wireless high speed data exchange.

With the LG P970 Optimus Black is now the first time a model of the gigahertz-class in a package with a discount flat rate for zero euros: the flat rate of 1 & 1 includes unlimited Internet usage and telephone calls to all networks for 39,95 € / month .

It also offers good smartphone performance, especially around the mobile Internet.

Disappointing, however, the quality of the camera and the sound of the MP3 player. The scores with a great screen, good phone and Internet functions and regular performances of music and video. The modern hardware and the operating system provides a flexible liquid handling.
