84% Review LG Optimus E430 L3 II Smartphone | Notebookcheck
Battery giant or performance dwarf? With the E430 Optimus L3 II, LG is introducing a smartphone to the market that is not only extremely cheap (99 Euros, ~$129) - it also promises to have an extremely long battery life. But what can the little squirt do besides "battery life"? That's a question for our review to answer.

XL-smartphone for a small price. The LG D605 Optimus L9 II impresses with its 4.7-inch HD display and combines two very appealing things: A lot of performance for a comparatively low price. We tested it.
