Comparisons Featuring LG G Vista
Short Review
- The LG G Vista features a large 5.7-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, providing decent clarity at approximately 258 ppi.
- Its build dimensions are 152.1 x 79.2 x 9.1 mm, weighing 167 grams, and it comes in a metallic black color.
- Performance is driven by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 chipset with a quad-core 1.2 GHz CPU and Adreno 305 GPU, supported by 1.5GB of RAM and 8GB of internal storage.
- The rear camera offers 8 MP resolution with 1080p video recording at 30fps, while the front camera is a basic 1.3 MP.
- The 3200 mAh battery provides reasonable longevity but lacks fast or wireless charging capabilities.
- Running on Android 4.4.2 (KitKat), the software experience may feel dated compared to newer versions.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0, NFC, and microUSB 2.0, but it does not support 5G.
- Notably, the device lacks HDR support and stereo speakers.
- Overall, the LG G Vista is a solid choice for basic smartphone needs, though it may not satisfy users seeking advanced features.
