Design and Body
We think this is the main selling LG L3 is compared to similar phones. As an entry-level Android phone design is not embarrassing, the body tends to mengkotak, unlike Optimus Me is curvy. The front of the screen are the usual ingredients but the glossy black bezel surrounded by a shiny silver color.
In the meantime the back of the serrated plastic battery cover so that you grip when holding the phone to stay awake. The back is white with silver metallic accents list on the left and right cameras, while the LG logo sticking out right under it, almost transparent because the color is not much different from this rear casing.
Physical buttons on the L3 only 3 pieces, the lock button at the top of the phone, the volume buttons on the left, and the Home button is accompanied by a touch Menu and Back buttons at the bottom of the screen. Behind the rear battery cover large (1500 mAh) blocking the SIM card slot, while to insert a micro SD you do not need to unplug the battery first. With the rear cover design follows the curve of the hand and weighs 110 grams and a thickness of 11.7 mm, this phone is comfortable to hold and feels good even though its size is rather small.
For the problem of the screen you can not expect a lot of phones at a price of 1 million. Low resolution (240x320 pixels) in a 3.2-inch screen makes the sharpness of the screen is only 125 pixels per inch. Visual angle to the horizontal is still clearly visible. In the hot sun screen performance is less obvious.
Interface
By using the Android operating system 2.3.6 Gingerbread, the phone display is not much different from non-LG phones other ICS. Home screen consists of 5 pieces. The widgets can be installed is limited due to the small screen resolution (QVGA 240x320 pixels), but 5 homescreen thats enough. Can be added to the homescreen shortcuts, widgets, folders and Wallpaper.
Vertically arranged main menu, by default consists of two categories, but you can still add them. Further additional categories can be deleted, be renamed and set the display order of these categories in the main menu. Application arranged alphabetically, but you can still set it up at will by pressing the Menu button. Notification bar is present in this phone, with a profile shortcut access, WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS and Data Package, as well as access to play music. Pressing Home button touch for a while, you will be brought to the Task manager plus Recent application.
Input Text
Phone input method is only one type of the LG Keyboard, with a Qwerty keypad, Phone keypad recognitiondan Handwriting, with arrangements such as the suggestion of words, auto-capitalization, auto complete and others. The screen is only 3.2 inch wide may be difficult for those of you who fingered typing width, although landscape mode option will make it easier. However this is an increase of Optimus Me is only 2.8 inches.
Contact
As usual contacts synchronized with Google and Microsoft Exchange account, as well as Facebook, Twitter and others (install the application first). When viewing a contact person from Facebook, we can see the update status and history are concerned. For regular contact you can add email, group, zip code, organization, IM, notes, nickname and website and event.
Messaging
To view SMS using thread view such as chatting, making it easier to see the contents of the conversation. Display menu is also simple and easy to use. Likewise, if you want to send MMS.
Then for e-mail can not be denied, Google Mail application is always faithful to complete the air-mobile-phone OS made by Google, with powerful features and complete with a Gmail account you can surf to find applications in markets, and of course enjoy the push notification for email. You can also use multiple Gmail accounts at once. For any GTalk IM can actually keep online such as fuel, but it seems less popular. Other email service you can add your own, as well as alternative IM like Yahoo Messenger, WhatsApp and LINE.
Camera
3MP camera, LG is not complete with autofocus. But for other features pretty much like the brightness, Scene, resolution, ISO, White Balance, Colour effect, timer, shutter sound, review and geolocation. Camera interface is quite easy to use, also displays how many shots can still be done with the rest of the existing storage. The camera can be used in portrait position.
Camera results although the resolution is big enough, but arguably not that great. Incoming light at midday conditions quite over, while for the room noisenya quite disturbing. The lack of auto focus / macro mode is indeed a problem if you want to shoot at close range, but it may be because this is an entry level phone.
Video Recorder
L3 has a VGA resolution video recording format. Mp4, with other options QVGA and QCIF. Only the standard features such as brightness, audio, white balance, color effects and review.

Can you make ringtone song, put your own playlist you created and distributed via Bluetooth, Gmail and MMS.

Battery Life
With Lithium Ion Battery 1500 mAh capacity, do not be surprised if its durability over the phone in its class. When conducting a review for 3 days (Use the internet using WiFi), we do not charge the battery at all, except when plugged into a computer and even then only briefly. If you are using 3G and used for the daily use of the phone can last more than 1 day.
Conclusion
Spearhead LG to boost sales of entry-level smartphone category, at an affordable price, plus a relatively good design, LG L3 can be a serious contender to its competitors at a similar price range such as the Samsung Galaxy Y.

Problem is there is such a shortage of quality screen and camera are not good, can still be tolerated because it is an entry level phone.
