Till lately, it can be supposed that LG comprised falling back a bit behind when it bore on taking affected in the smartphone marketplace raceway. The last examples, even so, display that these South Korean manufacturing business accepts at last caught the challenger. The better proofread of these is the LG Optimus 2X, with it is most important feature comprising the right NVIDIA Tegra 2 chipset, with a 1GHz dual core CPU. The phone as well accompanies a 4-inch capacitive IPS LCD screen, Google Android 2.2 (Froyo), 8GB of internal storage, and a HDMI porthole.

A lot of Americans may not acknowledge it, merely these model comprises already useable here -- it is masquerading below a different name, the T-Mobile G2x.

Build and Design
The LG Optimus 2X does not contain the most advanced designing, merely does get in particular slim down proportions of 4.9 x 2.5 x 0.4 inches (124 x 63 x 11 mm). It is 5-ounce weighting comprises a bit brawny even out for a device with a 4-inch display.

Pictures could barely distinguish the point that mostly brings to the ergonomics of these smartphone that's a slimly curving glassful covering the display. Thank you to these, the Optimus 2X feelings natural while held in and the slim screen curve brings to a more lifelike feel while doing multi-touch screen motions alike pinch-to-zoom.

Display
The LG Optimus 2X's 4-inch LCD capacitive display has its good points and bad points. Undoubtedly, this is a high-quality screen with very good contrast that tolerates even direct sunlight regardless of the situation the device is used in. Similarly, the colors on the display are convincing and vibrant, be it photo imaging and video clips or simply running applications, i.e. widgets and desktop icons.

Where it deserves harsh criticism though is with sharpness. With a WVGA (480 x 800) resolution, it is up against rival models with qHD (900 x 540) resolutions with significantly sharper imaging on a 4-inch diagonal. Furthermore, the display uses IPS (in-plane switching) which puts it in direct competition with the device that's best-known for its IPS screen -- the iPhone 4. This raises high expectations, but unfortunately, these expectations are not met. The imaging is a bit blurry, something that is most evident when reading texts written in a smaller font size, for instance when browsing web sites.

On the other hand, the screen reacts to touch and finger movements instantly and with exceptional preciseness. A powerful processor is credited for this, which instantly fulfills the user's wishes for smoothly running applications and moving objects on the screen. Thus, typing on the virtual keyboard is very elegant and can be mastered quickly.

Users who frequently write text messages and emails on smartphones and want a device without a physical keyboard should definitely consider getting Optimus 2X.

Other Buttons and Controls
Instead of physical ones, this smartphone has four capacitive keys, Home, Menu, Back and Search, located right under the display. This is common for devices with the Android OS. The power key is on the upper edge and volume control keys on its right side.

These are all the keys this phone has -- the lack of a key dedicated for turning on the camera and taking photos is rather surprising. I was especially surprised by the lack of such a key given the exceptional multimedia options Optimus 2X has to offer. I hope this LG P990 Optimus 2X review could be helpful for you! :D
