We recently checked out the new LG Optimus Black smartphone, and were expecting it to go on sale in the UK from Monday the 16th of May, but it looks like it is now available in the UK from one mobile operator from today.
T-Mobile UK have just listed the new LG Optimus Black on their website, and it is available from free when you sign up to a new two year contract which costs £25.50 a month.
The LG Optimus Black features a 4 inch IPS LCD multitouch display with a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels, processing is provided by a 1GHz processor and there is also a five megapixel camera on the back which can record HD video in 720p and a 2 megapixel camera up front.
Display and Design
The 4-inch IPS LCD display on the LG Optimus Black is one of its standout features. IPS technology ensures that the screen offers wide viewing angles and accurate color reproduction, making it ideal for watching videos and browsing photos. The display’s resolution of 480 x 800 pixels provides a decent pixel density, ensuring that text and images appear sharp and clear. The phone’s design is sleek and modern, with a slim profile that makes it comfortable to hold and use with one hand. The lightweight build further enhances its portability, making it a great choice for users who are always on the go.
Performance and Camera
Under the hood, the LG Optimus Black is powered by a 1GHz processor, which ensures smooth performance for everyday tasks such as browsing the web, checking emails, and using social media apps. While it may not be the most powerful processor on the market, it is sufficient for most users’ needs. The phone also comes with 512MB of RAM, which helps with multitasking and running multiple apps simultaneously.
The camera setup on the LG Optimus Black is another highlight. The 5-megapixel rear camera is capable of capturing high-quality photos and recording HD video in 720p. This makes it a great option for users who enjoy taking photos and videos on the go. The 2-megapixel front camera is perfect for video calls and selfies, ensuring that you can stay connected with friends and family.
