Decide with the type of device (phone or smartphone?) Quite simple. If you need a simple and inexpensive device for calls and SMS, it is recommended to stop the choice on the phone. The smartphone is more expensive, but offers many diverse options: games, video, Internet, thousands of programs for all occasions. However, his battery life is significantly less than that of a simple phone.

Relatively recently misstant company LG released new smartphone called LG L70 D325. The phone refers to the budget price category and costs only 6,500-7,000 rubles (about 2,700 hryvnia). What do we get for such a price? You can find out the answer to this question by reading this

Smartphones from LG.

LG products have always been famous for their high quality and innovation. LG is not afraid to experiment. The best engineering minds of the company regularly improve and upgrade products. This applies to smartphones. LG constantly introduce new technologies, software, etc. Sometimes these experiments are unsuccessful. But despite this, the company moves in the right direction. She does not stand still. With each new announcement, the quality of LG smartphones is improving, the company evolves.

What did the firm surprised his fans this time? Was you a new smartphone LG L70 ruler to justify expectations? Let's deal with.

Appearance

The first thing to turn your attention is a design. The device has a small frame around the screen. Thanks to this, LG managed to make the device more compact. If you compare L70 D325 with other similar phones, then the product lg is rather modest dimensions. And it is definitely a huge plus.

The location of the elements in the D325 classic model. Above the screen near the top edge is the speaker. Under it you can see the manufacturer's logo. A slightly right is located and under the screen there are sensory keys. What is interesting, instead of the usual three buttons there are already four there. The new key is responsible for switching between SIM cards. Now you can change the sim card with just one click. A fairly interesting solution that will certainly facilitate the life of millions of buyers.

In the lower end is the main microphone and on the top - additional microphone and audio sequel. On the left and right are the audio adjustment keys and the power on the smartphone. Behind you can notice the camera on 5 megapixels, multimedia speaker and LG logo. The lid itself is made of several rough material, so that the smartphone cannot slip out of the hands.

As for ergonomics, the LG L70 D325 is all right. The keys are located where and should, pressing well felt. After a couple of days of operation, the phone becomes part of your hand. Thanks to the same framework around the screen, you can use a smartphone with one hand. Extra gestures help to manage the phone. For example, you can turn off or turn on the screen using a double touch (the so-called knock-knock function), hold the call, simply turning the phone and so on.

Specifications

The smartphone works on the basis of Android 4.4.2 (latest version). On top of this system, a branded envelope applies called LG Optimus UI. One of the main advantages of the OS is a new power saving mode. A bunch appeared in the smartphone different functionsthat help keep the battery charge. And it is quite a great achievement. LG has been able to solve one of the main problems of Android devices.

Perhaps now let's talk about stuffing. LG L70 D325 is equipped with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 200 processor, which includes two kernels operating at a frequency of 1.2 GHz. As for memory, D325 has a whole gigabyte RAM. User, unfortunately, only 340 MB is available. Also in the smartphone there is a built-in drive with a volume of four gigabytes (the user is only available only 1.3). Perhaps this is the main disadvantage of this model. After all, with such a meager memory, install some large games will be pretty difficult. If we talk about performance, the phone has quite mediocre indicators. You can run unpretentious arcades without problems, however, play cool projects with 3D graphics, you can hardly work.

LG L70: reviews

Perhaps nothing brightly characterizes the phone as consumer reviews. What do buyers think about LG L70 D325? Reviews are pretty contradictory. Some liked the phone, some not. If you add some specifics, then the smartphone is praised for the high quality assembly, the current version software, excellent autonomy, good speaker and additional features In terms of energy saving. In turn, most bugging do not like the low screen resolution, cameras, small amount of memory and mediocre performance.

Outcome

We can say that LG L70 D325 - good smartphone In its price category and excellent budget model. The device, though it has some of the shortcomings already mentioned above (like low performance, poor quality of the camera, etc.), but at the same time it has a lot of positive qualities (such as a unique power saving mode, new functions, etc.). Of course, you can find the phone much better and more productive. But for this money, you can hardly find the device that will exceed technical characteristics LG L70 D325.


Despite the fact that LG once again contributes to the Marking of the Lines of his smartphones (Optimus - disappeared, additional numbers appeared), it is obvious thatLG L70 and LG L70 Dual The 3rd waves of the L-Style line are continuents of medium-page devices -Optimus L7 . In LG L70 DUAL, last year's successful design has been preserved, and the display diagonal has grown to 4.5 inches. By the way, it would be logical if the format of "mini" this year will be just such. Despite the uninteresting characteristics on paper, in the life of the company LG managed to achieve such an impression from its state employee, which he should produce on the entire line of L-Style is the most pleasant and long-playing from A-brands for their money.

In LG L70 DUAL, last year's successful design has been preserved, and the display diagonal has grown to 4.5 inches. By the way, it would be logical if the format of "mini" this year will be just such. Despite the uninteresting characteristics on paper, in the life of the company LG managed to achieve such an impression from its state employee, which he should produce on the entire line of L-Style is the most pleasant and long-playing from A-brands for their money.

Housing

If you put several smartphones from different manufacturers next to several smartphones, the LG and Samsung will be similar to each other so that there is nothing to say: companies have a similar vision of their audience. Dualsim version of the L70 smartphone differs from a single-sided control unit - there are traditionally four keys located in the following order.

Because of the considerable diagonal of the screen, it is inconvenient to the "Back" key, in any case, if you have a hand of small or medium sizes. Over time, I adepened - I kept my smartphone in my left hand, then managed it with two. In the end, in the yard of 2014, the diagonal is only growing, it is time to get used to it.

On the front panel, the smartphone has slits for lighting and approximation sensors. But at least the latter is not provided in budgetary smartphones, and here it is not here.

The rear panel is completely identical to that in models L90 and fastened L65. I, for example, its texture was generalized with some cloth. Its advantages is nemarity, negligence and reliable clutch with the surface.

Screen lock buttons and volume control - on the usual locations. Right and left, respectively. From the excess key shown last year (to start branded app LG QuickMemo by default, but it can be changed to any other in the settings), in the models of this season they refused. Apparently, they judged: no one - and we do not need. By the way, the buttons themselves although cute and neat, and are small. To the touch, they are not always able to quickly detect. To a greater extent, it concerns the volume adjustment.

SIM slots and memory card are under a cap. MicroSD supports hot replacement. To remove SIM, you need to get the battery.

The speaker is located in a traditionally unsuccessful place - on the rear panel. That's how it looks under a cap.

The body itself is made fine, even to the sample do not fall asleep. White version of the Girl Milam Smartphone. In hand, the device lies perfectly, despite the fact that by the standards of this year he is fat. Partly an excellent ergonomics, he is obliged exclusively to the subtle framework around the display, which will not usually meet in mobile device for 2000 UAH.

Screen

LG L70 Dual is equipped with a 4.5-inch IPS display with a resolution of 480x800 points and, accordingly, a pixel density of 207 PPI. For a state employee, this is a good indicator, although users who are particularly spoiled by flawless screens can notice that resolution is low. But I, for example, a pixel density of 207 PPI did not cause discomfort. The screen has excellent sensitivity. In the smartphone settings there is a "smart" function: the backlight is not turned off until the camera sees your view. Comfortable thing. The display brightness allows you to normally interact with the gadget on the street before the onset of sunny days. For example, today, April 18, 2014, on the way to work, I did not experience problems with the screen because of the bright sun. Although there may be some discomfort particularly clear summer day.

As a result of the measurements, the colorimeter it turned out that the screen had an uneven color temperature, the excessive coldness of shades was characterized for dark areas, but on the contrary, the colors are noticeably warmed, and the image becomes closer to the standard. Color coverage approximately corresponds to the SRGB space, but is shifted to the blue and green shades.

Performance and autonomy

The device is equipped with a Snapdagon 200 processor - it is dual-core, but initial level, with cortex-a7 cores. The amount of RAM is typical for the needs of time, that is, 1 GB. You will experience problems with the performance of LG L70 Dual or not depends on the intensity of use. When the smartphone just came to the review, and I did not have time to thoroughly populate his memory with applications, the interface "flew." After installation of the first dozen, the smoothness decreased noticeably, but remained on the expected and quite decent state-owned level. In the graphic tests, the smartphone demonstrates the result high for its equipment due to the fact that it has a low screen resolution for today's standards. The game Temple Run 2 literally flies. And installing Real Racing 3 failed - the application did not fit into the smartphone memory (4 GB), and the memory card was installed on the memory card.

With autonomy I was expected by a real pleasant surprise. The battery with a capacity of 2040 ma-h allows not to recharge the smartphone at least one and a half days. With the fact that his camera is not particularly good in shooting, and the maximum brightness of the screen is not the transcendent, the main source of the "landing" of the battery from any user will most likely have games and the Internet. Those who do not like to play a lot, LG L70 Dual will easily live in a pair of days. For a budget device, this is an excellent result. Below you present the screen with the results of the test of autonomy.

Interface

LG L70 Dual works out of the box under android management 4.4.2, on top of which the corporate shell LG Optimus UI is used. In the LG L90 review, Sonya Myshkin shared the first impressions of this tandem. In the smartphone that came to us on the review was more actual version The firmware in which the cherished Knock Code worked. So it is configured.

You get used to this feature not instantly, but quickly. For people who are responsible about the preservation of their information, it seems to me that it is very useful opportunityBecause at least now, while she did not scatter on other manufacturers, almost no one knows about it, and no one else can unlock the smartphone without a special briefing from the owner. In any case, I was just that, although I didn't wisely with the code yourself, I chose the easiest option.

From updating to updating, LG smartphones interface is becoming a new portion of settings. In LG L70 Dual it seemed to me that most are useful, and not just for beauty, as it was in the smartphones of this manufacturer a couple of generations ago. For example, in the menu there is a quiet mode, "smart backlight", automatic decrease in brightness to a minimum at night, a couple of sought-after gestures.

Camera

IN budget smartphone It was noticeable tolerance of the camera settings menu. No support for HDR and voroch additional cunning shooting modes. Yes, it does not matter, most users do not use them.

I remained dissatisfied with the quality of the camera. In cloudy weather, with weak lighting or indoors, pictures are closed. About macro - you can not think at all, and for landscapes the camera is weak. With good light, a short distance The object (meter, two, three) and the absence of a rush, in principle, the result will be a good one. However, approximately as mediocrely removes the Horde of B-brands (hope is only unless on Huawei, which in Ukraine still pulls the title of the brand of the second echelon in the market positions), a little better know how Samsung Galaxy Core or Win and, perhaps, Sony. But in general, in this segment no one shifts photographic features.

Competitors

LG L70 Dual competes first of all with several lenovo models and a number of devices Fly (which replace each other rapidly). In the range of these companies, you can detect models with a slightly larger diagonal (if needed), with more high resolution. Stuffing will also be more powerful, but partially it will be leveled by other screen needs. However, Fly in senior models (and in 2000, they have a "senior" segment in the ruler, the "senior" segment) uses a quad-core MediaTek MT6589, which Snapdragon 200 will not be contacted at any screen resolutions and other options. On the other hand, only LG L70 offers today the most relevant version of the OS. Yes, and on autonomy, this model is able to give odds to any competitor. It is worth adding a more advanced interface, which also will like the more lovers of all Mimmichny and Nyashny - and there is already a serious argument against more technically advanced competitors.

There are no direct competitors in terms of price and characteristics among Samsung, HTC and SONY. The closest are Samsung Galaxy Core (above performance, slightly better camerabut less screen and older version Android, in theory, Samsung should soon update this model something more interesting) or HTC Desire 500 (it is much more expensive, but according to the characteristics weaker). Inside the line of L70 Dual, there is a struggle for wallet buyers with a senior L90 Dual (also present in the market in versions on one and two SIM cards) and will soon begin - with a freshly-plane LG L65. You simply choose between them - the larger model, the smaller it has a screen and the lower performance.

In the dry residue

LG L70 Dual - a pleasant employee, the advantages of which is the freshest at the time of release version OS (Android 4.4.2), the availability of a version with the support of one and two SIM cards for different taste, very good by the standards of the state employee Autonomy, the function Knock Code and visually nice Screen (despite its low permission). In the A-brand segment, its only serious competitor is not an aging Samsung Galaxy Core with a higher productivity, and if you choose from all offers on the market - then several smartphones Lenovo. And Fly, which will have a better screen and high performance. In my opinion, LG L70 Dual will be uniquely preferable for female professionally, which is not very interested in technology, but loves lovely things, and which will rather appreciate the opportunity to live not from the outlet to the outlet than a powerful stuffing.

4 Reasons to buy LG L70 / LG L70 Dual:

  • actual version of OS - Android 4.4.2;
  • excellent autonomy by state employees;
  • worthy graphic performance for the state employee (due to the low screen resolution);

The smartphone looks not so cheap - the corrugated back cover of plastic color, it is convenient to use, does not collect fingerprints and does not slip out of the hands. The speaker "for conversations" on the front panel is slightly decorated with unusual slots. On the ends of the monotonous body, the body separates the bordering of the metallic color. The speakers are located behind the bottom and in front, all the basic controls have standard location. A little surprise only 4 touch buttons on the front panel: a standard set of three, plus the SIM card control button, which can be two in the phone. You can note the narrow side frames, which meets not so often mobile phones From the budget segment. According to user reviews, one of the minuses LG L70 D325 is the lack of LED to indicate events like an incoming call or messages. As for the quality of the assembly, it is at the average level: LG L70 creaks slightly, if you press the body, the case in the removable back cover, it could fit the slower. In general, the LG L70 D325 looks pleasant and for the LG rule, LG visually can even go to the flagship.

The LG L70 has a 4.5-inch diagonal display; Screen resolution is typically budget - 800 × 480 points, the type of matrix - IPS, which is already plus, the screen is covered protective glass Gorilla Glass 2, another plus. But the value of PPI - 207, it is a low density of pixels per inch and already minus. The LG L70 smartphone display is quite bright (367 cd / m2), on a sunny day the information on it remains readable. The viewing angles can be called good, especially for the money, and the color reproduction is normal. It is worth noting one interesting feature of the smartphone - you can output it from the sleeping state with a double tapping on the screen. Little surprises the lack of a brightness autorpelling function, probably, the manufacturer is very much on this Sanokomil. If it were not for a low resolution, the display could be called good.

Camera

The main camera of the LG G70 D325 phone is typical for its price - 5 megapixels, autofocus, neon lights and standard set of functions and settings.

Features

The LG L70 smartphone is working under Android 4.4.2 (Kitkat) and with a company shell from LG. It includes an original launcher, keyboard, browser, dialer, SMS client and most other embedded applications. It is not clear why there is no automatic brightness adjustment. Instead of autowarity, it is proposed to adjust the time brightness - a budget alternative to the missing function. Note also the ability to turn on the screen using a double click, the smart screen that follows the face and does not mute the display while you look at it.

Even before the start of the exhibition MWC 2014, LG announced new ruler Smartphones L-Style III. It included three models: L40, L70 and L90, later another smartphone joined them -. The older model is already, now the queue for LG L70 Dual. The device is equipped with a 4.5-inch IPS screen, a dual-core processor and a gigabyte of RAM. Works smartphone on latest version Android 4.4 Kitkat.

Design and ergonomics

The smartphone design is made in a single line of the L-series line. Due to the small framework around the screen, the device has compact sizes, in general, the device dimensions can be called one of the most modest.

The location of the elements is standard. Above the screen, the top edge is a spoken speaker, the manufacturer's logo can be seen, on the right - the approximation sensor and the front camera. Under the screen there are hardware sensor keys. In addition to the usual three, the SIM-card switch key has been added. The entire front panel is covered with protective glass and a little recessed relative to the sidewall. By the way, the verge of the body has a silver frame for metal. The top end is a 3.5 mm audio jack and an additional microphone, on the lower - Micro-USB connector and the main microphone. On the left and on the right are the volume key and turn on the machine, respectively. On the back of the smartphone there is a main camera on a 5 megapixel and flash, manufacturer's logo and multimedia speaker. The lid itself has a rough invoice, which is positively reflected on the convenience of use, as the smartphone does not blunt to slip out of the hands. To remove the lid, you need to join it at the Micro-USB connector. After the lid is removed, we access the microSD memory card connector and the SIM card dual connector. In order to change the memory card, you do not need to remove the battery.
















In terms of usability, the smartphone has shown himself from a good side. Mechanical keys are where you expect them to find, in addition, pressing well tangible. The hardness of the housing is high, but with a strong squeezing in the battery area, it begins to trust. One hand use a smartphone easily thanks to a small frame around the screen, and a small diagonal of the latter. There are additional gestures, among which the ability to turn on / off the screen using a double touch (Knock Knock function), deduction incoming challenge Simple coup of the smartphone and others.

In addition, there is a modified version of the Knock Knock function, which is called Knock Code. Thanks to it, it is possible to use a combination of a unique sequence of presses containing from 2 to 8 touches.

Operating system and shell

Smartphone runs on the basis of the latest version operating system Android 4.4.2, on top of which is used by the LG Optimus UI brand shell. Detailed descriptions All the features of the shell can be found in, the truth is there are also differences.

Such smartphones as LG L90 and LG G2 mini have absolutely the same features. corporate shell. Among them above mentioned new function Knock Code. Energy saving mode appeared. It allows you to increase the operation time of the device, with a low battery charge, turning off autosynchronization, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, vibration when touched, brightness and time before turning off the screen. In the power saving settings, you can choose one of the parameters (immediately, at 10%, at 20%, at 20% or at 50%). In the display settings, it is possible to turn on 0% of brightness in the interval from 00:00 to 06:00 for greater convenience of the device at night. In general, the abundance of settings of LG Optimus UI and Android 4.4 Kitkat are a significant advantage for the smartphone.

Performance

LG L70 Dual is equipped with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 200 (MSM8210) processor (MSM8210) of the manufactured 28 Nm process. It includes two Cortex-A7 processor kernels operating at a frequency of 1.2 GHz and the graphics core of ADRENO 302. The amount of RAM is 1 GB, from which the user is available about 340 MB. The built-in drive has a volume of 4 GB (1.3 GB available). Such a small amount will make it difficult to install some games, since their default cache is downloaded to the device's memory. In terms of performance, Snapdragon 200 is inferior to the MEDIATEK MT6589 chip, which is noticeably superior to MT6572. Of course, for colorful 3D games, this smartphone is unlikely to fit, but you can easily play in all sorts of arcades.

The spoken speaker is good, the interlocutor is heard perfectly, and there is a volume of volume on volume. There is no complaints about the call dynamics. The vibromotor is powerful, it is possible to estimate its work even by how it works out the hardware touch keys, not to mention how the smartphone vibrates with an incoming call. This vibration is hard not to feel, even if the device is in the bag. However, if you turn off the vibration, then loud speaker It will not allow you to skip the call. There are no problems with sound quality in headphones. The sound is quite good, but in the standard player from LG there is no equalizer.

SOC from Qualcomm in terms of gPS operations And Wi-Fi surprises did not prevent. GPS satellites are caught quickly both in air mode and using the Internet. Wi-Fi work Also without surprises. The fact that, despite the two-dimensional smartphone, one radio module was installed in it. That is, when conversing one of the SIM cards, the second will be unavailable.

The standard video player does not cope with its task, often reporting an invalid video resolution. In view of this, we recommend installing MX Video Player.

Camera

Like most competitors, the smartphone is equipped with two cameras. Main on 5 MP with autofocus and frontal 0.3 megapixel. The main chamber can record video in the resolution of WVGA (800x480), and the frontal - in VGA (640 × 480). Camera settings are quite familiar and familiar to other products of the company.









As a result, the photograph is very average, but nothing else should be expected from the device. Photo and video quality can be estimated personally.

Screen

LG L70 Dual got a 4.5-inch IPS screen, the resolution of which is 800x480 points (207 PPI). Lighting sensor is absent. Display characteristics are far from outstanding. An unarmed look on the screen is noticeable graininess. The screen test results showed that the maximum brightness is 315.4 kD / m2, 50% brightness - 77.3 kD / m2, minimum - 19.7 kD / m2. Contrast 656: 1. Under the right rays of the Sun, see the information on the screen is difficult.


The color temperature graph clearly shows that in the entire range of monochrome gradient, the temperature is significantly higher than 6500K. As a result, we get a cold image, especially in dark shades. Color coverage exceeds SrGB value, giving green color of a salad shade. Gamma curve confirms that light shades look still light than it really is. Subjectively, the screen is quite mediocre, and is visibly inferior to models using the Sharp matrices (Fly, Lenovo, Huawei).





Autonomy

LG L70 Dual equipped with a removable rechargeable batteries Capacity 2100 mA * h. Although it is not a big battery along the tank, but it is enough for one and a half days of autonomous work at intensive load. In this mode, the display time of the display amounted to 5 hours 45 minutes, which is not bad. In more than sparing conditions, the smartphone will easily work for 3 days.


Test results confirm the above.

RESULTS

Despite the attractive appearance, the survey hero is not the best purchase for 2000 UAH. Low display resolution (800x480 pixels) with a 4.5-inch diagonal and not the most productive processor - weighty flaws. In contrasts, they can act: the quality of the assembly, the well-known brand, the current version of the operating system, the possibility of the Optimus UI shell.
