1st off this phone gets hot just from charging with a 5w, thks to its metal back, which makes this phone feel quite pointlessly heavy(and more expensive i guess?), cell signal is crap(there is a sticker on the backplate tht touches the sim tray fyi, perhaps using a nanosim is the reason im hving so bad a cell sig), like the wifi on tegra3 htc1x levels of bad, tbf unlike on the 1x where i had 1st hand experience on seeing how slow the wifi is and how it magically get faster if i stand near my router(a nt 56u so its not like i cheapdout on my wifi), this is not based on any exp with phonecalls but just by seeing how its always at 1/2bars and straight up nonstop just dropping to 0bar no signal for a few secs repeatedly constantly, like ffs, wp7.5's browser is outdated asf to teh point gmail is text based, the least this brick can do is do phone calls right, umm wifi is goodish, audio jack output isnt as good as say on my ipadair2, screen&viewing anglel is serviceable, black levels are atrociously grey though, tldr if u need sumthing real old & cheap get the htc1x instead, ironically my optimus 2x, apart from perhaps a less good screen, has the best cell/wifi signal out of these 3 phones by a mile, infact, if u can put android 4 on it, just get tht instead of either phones, 1x for the kickass pixelsharp screen at cost of cancer wifi and a plastic back ure kids can snap in half as easy as some razer mice, 2x for the best signal..u know...the thing tht truely matters, o7 for...its real sexy i must say, like jesus christ this came out in 2010? dam...and yeah its a pleasure to hold, sides are real nice, chamfered screenedge meets the flat softtouch almost rubberish side, which finally meets the backplate, the curved top/bottom means its like holding a pillow to ure ear...speaking of which, upper phonecall speaker is deff on the weaker side. lastly the back button is terrible, u really need to click hard on it otherwise ure clicks don't register, so plenty off times ure accidentally invoke multitask when u just wanna go back and viceversa. my microusb cover fell off, but i actually prefer tht, gonna be a issue though for peeps who will rightfully wanna trade this in within a week
nice phone good battery life(1h internet 1-2h talk 1-2 gaming) lasts 1.5 day mediocre camera and many apps in store i like the facebook and twitter integration
simple to use
Had my optimus for a year and a half and never a single problem with it, wp worked great, starting from the first build thru nodo, mango and now tango. Only reason i sold it is becouse its not a nokia lol :-)
