Premium back. LG builds an affordable, and at the same time high-quality, mid-range smartphone with its Class. However, the premium materials cannot conceal weaknesses in build and telephony.

Comment

Model: The LG Class smartphone is a mid range device with premium specs, launched in September 2015. It comes with a 5 inch touchscreen display with a resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels which gives a pixel density of 293 PPI. The display is quite interesting as LG have gone for a 2.5D curved glass panel which is slightly curved at the edges. However the bezel looks unsightly. The high brightness of LG's Class is beneficial for outdoor use. It is possible to use the handset even in brighter environments without problems. The phone weighs 147 grams with its non removable 2050 mAh battery. With a thickness of 7.4 mm thin, the metal body and curved glass offer a slimmer and more comfortable grip. The rear-mounted power and volume buttons continue to highlight LG's unique design direction.

The handset is powered by a 64 bit Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 quad core processor clocked at 1.2 GHz with an Adreno 306 GPU, 2 GB of LPDDR3 RAM, and 16 GB of internal storage, which can be expanded up to an incredible 2 TB using a microSD card. The rear camera is a 13 MP premium image sensor, which captures high quality photos, while 8 MP front camera comes equipped with a range of software features including Beauty Shot and Gesture Interval Shot. The Gesture Interval Shot lets you capture four images (2 seconds apart) just by holding up your hand and making a fist in front of the camera. Standard features of this phone include an accelerometer, a proximity sensor, an ambient light sensor, a compass, Bluetooth 4.1, GPS, and an FM radio.

Qualcomm Adreno 306: Integrated mid-range graphics card in the Snapdragon 410 SoCs that supports OpenGL ES 3.0 and features unified shaders.

These graphics cards are not suited for Windows 3D games. Office and Internet surfing however is possible.

410 APQ8016: 64-Bit Cortex-A53 Quad-Core with an Adreno 306 GPU manufactured in 28nm. The APQ parts lack the integrated cellular radio (3G, 4G).» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.

This display is tiny. You will probably see very little on the screen and be able to use mini-resolutions.
