Comparisons Featuring LG Enact VS890

Short Review

  • The LG Enact VS890 features a compact design with dimensions of 111 x 52.3 x 15.8 mm and a weight of 169.8g, making it portable but somewhat bulky.
  • Its 4.0-inch TFT display has a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 233 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks but lacks vibrancy.
  • Performance is driven by a Qualcomm MSM8930 Snapdragon 400 chipset with a dual-core 1.2 GHz Krait CPU and Adreno 305 GPU, paired with 1GB of RAM, suitable for everyday applications.
  • The rear camera is 5 MP with autofocus and can record video at 1080p@30fps, while the front camera is absent.
  • The 2460 mAh battery provides decent longevity but lacks fast or wireless charging capabilities.
  • Running on Android 4.1.2 (Jelly Bean), the software experience is dated, lacking modern features and updates.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
  • The device has a headphone jack, which is a plus for audio enthusiasts.
  • Overall, the LG Enact VS890 serves basic smartphone functions but falls short in performance and display quality compared to contemporary devices.
  • Its design and build quality are functional but not particularly impressive.
