Design and Body
The phone design is arguably the eleven-twelve with the LG Optimus 2X. Part glossy screen, while all around and the rear casing made from doff. There's a thin list that surrounds this phone. Rear casing looks elegant with a touch of silver and matte material in camera, complete with frills writing Stereoscopic 3D which is a prime feature of this phone. Two cameras are diponsel is also quite unique and will probably invite the attention of those around you.
This phone is simply held steady because of the relatively small weight of 168 grams. At the top there is a 3.5mm audio jack and power button / lock. Meanwhile on the left there is an HDMI port and a micro USB. On the right side there are volume buttons and 3D buttons. 3D button serves to change the appearance of 3D on-screen phones are plain view. More details about the 3D we discuss in each section.
Screen
3D Optimus uses the maximum screen brightness LCD.Tingkat quite blinding when viewed indoors. The screen is slightly yellowed. But if the comparison is non AMOLED phones, the LG 3D Optimus has a nice screen. Black color density is quite good. Under the sun the screen is quite visible, but still less with Optimus Optimus Black for not using the NOVA 3D Display.
Interface
Interface is almost the exact same phone with LG Optimus Black, it's just that there is no difference here Gesture UI. Homescreen which can use up to 7 screen (called a canvas here), you can add widgets, shortcuts, and folders. And of course supports Live Wallpaper. If no such notification email comes in, in a state of the phone screen is locked you can go directly to the inbox, with pull down notification. The notification appears in the middle of the screen.
The main menu stuck to the bottom of black background that can not be replaced, with deafault category there are three, namely the 3D Application that contains a variety of applications with a 3D display for this phone. Application which contains applications built from this phone in a column format. For applications that are not innate cell phone, the application is entered into the category Download. 3 This category is not his name be deleted or edited. For a new category you can rename the category, move the application icon layout either (managed app) or to other categories. Besides these categories you can use page views and lists. Notification bar present in this phone, with shortcut access packet data, WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS and Profile and Music Player. Pressing the touch-Home for a while, you will be taken to Recent application. Switching menu on the main menu is quite smooth. To make a screenshot press the Power button and then followed with the Home button until no sound capture.
3D Applications
Each open 3D content, there is a warning: When you see the 3D content is recommended to rest if your eyes are tired or if you experience dizziness. Indeed when I first saw the 3D content, seemed unaccustomed eyes and disoriented. But if the distance is seen the right, then you will not be disoriented, unless over time. When you enjoy a variety of 3D content on the phone, the screen resolution is decreased, so did the quality of color. But as you look at 3D content in a distance not so close (in my case, the comfort level is obtained from a distance of + - 40cm), the decrease in resolution can still be tolerated. Please see the photo below, the left is when the game Let's Golf is played in 2D formats, while the right side when 3D is activated.
For 3D applications, in mobile 3D Optimus Already, there are 10 items. Among them: 3D camera, 3D gallery, 3D games, 3D Games & Apps, 3D Guide, a 3D space, Asphaklt 6, Gulliver's Travel, Let's Golf 2 and NOVA.
3D Gallery
This 3D gallery displaying 3D content on the phone (picture and video). Maps are of two kinds, both displaying thumbnails of 3D content. 3D gallery looks very eye catching. For the default content, there are some accompanying video, all in 3D format, such as underwater videos, cartoons, advertisements LG LED 3D, fashion TV and others. 3D images in this phone you can set the level of depth. Zooming is not possible in this 3D galleries, unless you change the view by pressing the button into the 2D 2D. You can directly make sharing to Facebook, Twitter, MMS, Email, Picasa and others. Then be in-crop and edit, but should be in 2D format.
In 3D video playback is really showing its quality. With Optimus 3D images in the video have the illusion of depth and as if out of your mobile phone screen. Imagine watching a 3D TV or 3D cinema, then that's a 3D video phone. Setting the ratio of video playback only video only.
3D Games and Apps
In addition to several games built in this phone (Asphalt 6, Lets Golf 2, Nova, and Gulliver's Travel) you can download for free the following games: Real Football 2011 3D, 3D Assassin Creed, SpiderMan Total Mayhem 3D, and Shrek Kart 3D). There was more free to use because there are 7 total Gameloft games are available free of charge, from a total of 14 fruits that have been or will be out. Contrary to the Game, 3D applications seems not yet available. In the future we will see what a 3D application that will be provided, but it will not much.
Camera
Here we will discuss the normal camera on the LG 3D Optimus. The maximum resolution is a 5MP camera phone, with a resolution of 2592x1944 pixels. As for the focus mode, it supports macros, continuous focus, face tracking and manual focus. Other features are scene modes, ISO (up to 800), white balance, color effects and shot mode. Front of the camera can be used to take pictures with resolution up to VGA. This phone has no camera shutter button, is at the top right (when the phone is held landscape) there is a button, but it is a 3D Mode button. When shooting if you hit that button then the shooting mode to 3D mode.
Video Recorder
In front of the camera mode video recording up to VGA resolution (640x480) with a low framerate. While the back supports Full HD 1080p resolution (1920x1080) with features White balance, color effects and flash.
Music Player
Music player this phone is not much different from ordinary Android phone, with four main categories namely Songs, Albums, Artists and Playlists. Album art is displayed when selecting the album or when playing a song. This music player has many kinds of equalizer effects and Dolby Mobile, but you can not edit the equalizer manually. The resulting sound loudspeaker, the standards only, sounded pretty loud but broken at high volume. Using a 3.5mm headset default output will sound better, especially if using a variety of effects that match the songs you play. Lyrics of songs that I put through iTunes appears if you touch the album art, similar to the viewer the lyrics on the iPhone.
Video Player
The video player can read and playback mp4 file format HD. For other formats such as divx, xvid and mkv perfectly well supported, with the exception of the high-resolution mkv file size will be quite heavy and lag, but it is quite reasonable because mkv is a format that is quite heavy.
Connectivity
As the Android phone, 3D Optimus comes with a fairly complete connectivity, such as network Quadband GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 and HSDPA 900 / 1900 / 2100 with speeds up to 14.4Mbps (though taka da 3G operator in Indonesia which can be up to that much) . For local connectivity, there are WiFi 802.11 b / g / n WiFi with DLNA and tethering, other than that this phone has A-GPS and Bluetooth 3.0.
Web Browsers
This phone's browser already uses flash so watch Youtube and others can be performed quite smoothly. But when streaming directly in the browser performance is noticeably decreasing. When you open the full site of TeknoUp sites that did not happen. Standard Android, the maximum that can be opened tab is 8 pieces. In addition there are various standard settings such as browser history, cookies, javascript and others. Please see the video to find out more performance from LG Optimus 3D browser.
Performance
LG 3D Optimus Tri-Dual use technology (dual core, dual channel, dual memory). Additional channels and memory impact on the working efficiency of the dual processor-owned Motorola 3D Optimus which impact on battery life. Another advantage is the memory bandwidth of dual simultaneous chipset tri-3x bigger than other smartphones dual core processors that have only single-channel and single memory. Both processors can seamlessly mix and match memory used to facilitate interaction between the dual core processors and dual memory. The performance of LG 3D Optimus is quite good, there's no annoying lag, both when playing HD games that are already on the phone in 3D format, as well as streaming video on Youtube in a browser.
Battery Life
Batteries that complements the 3D Optimus is a type of Lithium Ion battery with 1500 mAh capacity. With dual core processors is certainly more extravagant than Optimus Black, but can last at least 24 hours if you only occasionally play games or multimedia files (with full internet online)
Conclusion
The normal price of 3D Optimus is not known with certainty but LG promised not tomore than 700 USD, even it made almost the same as the Samsung Galazy S II which is inthe range of 660 USD, and will be presented with an attractive price promo. Well here Optimus 3D has its own advantages with 3D, it is interesting to display in your social environment. For the performance does not vary much with Optimus 2x, fast enough for the size of Android phones.
