Taking into consideration the eco-friendly initiatives of the LG Optimus Elite, like how it’s constructed out of some recycled plastics, it’s hardly the most chic looking thing our eyes have feasted upon. Aside from the pristine white paint job it’s donning, there’s nothing particularly...

Did you miss the keywords in this article?
"Entry-level" "Budget" "$29.99 on contract"
IMO I think it looks great for something worth $30. Probably a decent starter smartphone for a teenager.

$30 on contract isnt budget when you need a data plan so are shelling out $90/mo with taxes, surcharges, franchise fees, service fees, etc.
this is a prepaid device, it doesnt belong on sprint. there are better phones that are free on contract. nexus s 4g anyone?

I fully agree. I think the idea of "budget smartphones" is ridiculous but for some reason manufacturers still continue making them.
I have a slight theory in the somewhat distant future all phones will have an OS running and feature/basic phones won't exist.
Just a theory.

The Nexus S 4G is free on contract, even with out 4G it out classes this thing every way and its has ICS or very soon to be for sure.

Well there are people out there who know nothing about phones and will take this over the Nexus because it's white and pretty. Then they'll hate it because it'll suck of course and probably get an iPhone next. These phones practically sell iPhones. Nothing's worse that a low end android.

wtf sprint? really? $30 on contract? that is an $100 off contract phone. throw it on boost, virgin and cricket. this is not a contract worthy phone. why would i want to be stuck with a two year old phone for another two years? that would be like owning an iphone. ugh.

In the era of Android phones that are about to have quadcore processors, which seems to be a big deal with the Android community, low-end Android phones should at least have a single core 1 GHz processor. Why are their still Android phones being released with 600 and 800 MHz processors.? Makes no sense.
