Are you sick of hearing about Apple vs Samsung?

By Michael Brown.

Have you got bored of listening to constant media and social chatter about Samsung vs Apple or how the HTC One has forward facing speakers?

If you have then maybe it is time to discover a few mobile phones made by manufacturers that do not throw out a huge amount of advertising and your mates at work probably are not talking about.

One such manufacturer is LG who are well-known for their TV line but do knock out decent smartphones too and you know that their TV screen expertise will be transferred onto their phone devices.

LG Optimus L7 II


The LG Optimus L7 II is a great example of a phone that has a wicked spec and a low price. It most definitely fits into what we call today a ‘mini’ with a screen that measures 4.3 inches. So, if you are looking for a pocket or bag friendly phone then this could be the device for you.

Optimus L7 II features


The first thing I love about this phone is the home button LED notification system. Okay so many phones have a flashing LED built in but this one operates with different colours depending upon the type of notification. Alerts can be set for incoming calls, messages, emails and calender reminders.


The design looks clean too with laser cut contours along the edges. The IPS display with True Colour will dazzle your eyes and have you wondering where phone and reality ends!


The Optimus range of phones have all featured the QuickMemo function and with the L7 II you can use your finger to write notes on top of any app or screen-shot. These can then be shared onto your social networking sites if you so choose.


Other top-notch features include cross-tasking with the QSlide feature, a high-capacity battery, language translations of foreign text written on signposts for example, Android operating system and a pretty decent 8 megapixel camera.

Price


In the UK there are some great LG Optimus L7 II deals that include up to £300 cash back. Take this into account and the rental works out at less that £8 per month.

If you don’t want a cash back deal then you can expect to find mobile phone deals from £11 per month.

The SIM free option isn't too expensive either coming in at under £160.
