Time for a verdict on the new display the 4 NOVA display of the LG Optimus Black P970. As far as LCD displays go, its easily among the best its brightness is unmatched and the other characteristics are very good as well.
Still, the NOVA display is very thin and that has allowed LG to slim the Optimus Black down to just 9.2mm of thickness. The high brightness makes it a great choice for outdoor viewing too and the popping colors are second only to a SuperAMOLED screen. read more →
The LG Optimus Black is not the brightest bulb in the LG Android portfolio. Fair enough, it has no problem with authority. It claims to have the brightest screen on a phone to date, and thats a good enough selling point.
Feature-wise, its nothing spectacular but we knew all the way the Optimus Black wasnt getting the premium flagship treatment. Its the same package that Samsung offered a year ago with the original Galaxy S. read more →
- 9.2 mm slim touchscreen bar
- 4 NOVA display at 700 nits of brightness, 16M-color WVGA capacitive IPS LCD unit
- Quad-band GSM and dual-band 3G support
- 7.2 Mbps HSDPA and 5.76 Mbps HSUPA
- Android OS v2.2 Froyo (upgradable to v2.3) with LG Home launcher 2.0 and Gesture UI 2.0
- HD video clips come out with distorted aspect ratio
- Single core processor when most of the high-end has gone dual-core
- The blacks of the NOVA display are not deep enough to impress
- No dedicated camera key
- No Android 2.3 Gingerbread at launch
If you're both a fan of the black bar aesthetic that seems to be the current go-to design of smartphones, and a fan of lightweight machinery that does exactly what it ought to, then the LG Optimus Black will suit you great.
While its only truly outstanding feature is the NOVA display screen, it performs well enough in other areas to stand as a competitor to the Apple iPhone 4 for those who prefer Android phones. read more →
