LG L90 review

 

Meet the daddy of LG's low-end

Android KitKat ; Decent build quality

Low-res display ; Knockcode hit and miss

The LG L90 is a well equipped smartphone, if a little unspectacular, and if you're looking for an Android run-around with a large(ish) screen and the latest software you won't be too disappointed.

Review LG L90 Smartphone

 

"Design-Smartphone" – that's what the South Korean manufacturer LG calls it. But the question is why, since the smartphone looks like any other smartphone at first. The rival Moto G is also powered by the Snapdragon 400 and has a 4.7-inch screen. So...

Multimedia performance, Battery runtime, Expandable storage, Battery can be replaced, Drawbacks of the rivals, for instance non-removable batteries or small storage, are no problem for the LG L90

Low display resolution (WVGA), No brightness sensor, Viewing angle stability, The WVGA resolution would have earned an upgrade, even the 75 Euros less expensive Moto G already features the HD resolution

LG Optimus L90 (T-Mobile)

 

The LG Optimus L90 is an exceptionally affordable, entry-level smartphone that matches and even exceeds some pricier options.

Rock-bottom price. Good display and performance for a budget smartphone.

No 4G LTE connectivity. Weak camera performance.

Cameras and Conclusions There's a 5-megapixel, rear-facing camera that underwhelms, but that's par for the course at this price. You'll be able to snap off usable shots outdoors and in bright light, but images can look overly processed and don't hold...

LG Optimus L90 (T-Mobile) review

 

For prepaid carrier T-Mobile, reliable midrange devices that are under $300 are few and far between. Some devices are inexpensive, but don't offer a smooth and consistent user experience. Other higher-tiered handsets, however, cost around $500 or more,...

T-Mobile's competitively priced LG Optimus L90 features a sizable battery, reliable call quality, and a protective "self-healing" coating.

The handset lacks LTE and its camera takes mediocre photos indoors. There were also some hiccups with Wi-Fi calling.

Though it doesn't have LTE and takes unimpressive photos, the LG Optimus L90 remains a worthy midrange contender that you should look at if you're on a budget.

Review: LG L90 for T-Mobile

 

LG's latest L Series Android phone fills in T-Mobile's entry-level roster. The L90 is an LG phone through and through thanks to core features, but better options might be available.

"Haven't had much luck with this phone :/"

 

My husband and I took advantage of t-mobiles' sale, for the Nokia Lumia 635 (LTE) & the Lg L90 (4G). The phones were on sale for $100, and we signed up with t-mobiles' no contract plan. We both went with the Nokia Lumia and have had amazing service (no...

Slow camera, poor quality, not a strong 4G signal etc...

"Might be good, but not the best."

 

I'm sure it's a decent phone but the review below me said "It's the best low end smartphone on the market in my opinion and you won't be able to find a phone as good as this for 100 dollars. It's just impossible". The Moto G can be had for less than...
