Short Review

  • The LG L65 D280 features a compact design with dimensions of 127.2 x 66.8 x 9.5 mm and a weight of 127g, making it easy to handle.
  • Its 4.3-inch IPS LCD display has a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels, providing decent visibility but limited sharpness at around 217 ppi.
  • Performance is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 200 chipset with a dual-core 1.2 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU and 4GB of RAM, which is adequate for basic tasks but may struggle with demanding applications.
  • The camera system includes a 5 MP rear camera with autofocus, but lacks optical image stabilization and offers only 480p video recording, while the front camera is absent.
  • The 2100 mAh battery provides sufficient power for daily use, although it does not support fast or wireless charging.
  • Running on Android 4.4.2 (KitKat) with LG's UI 3, the software experience is functional but may feel outdated compared to newer versions.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, and microUSB 2.0, but it lacks 5G and NFC capabilities.
  • The device is available in white and black colors, offering basic aesthetic choices.
  • Overall, the LG L65 D280 is a straightforward smartphone suitable for users with minimal requirements.
  • Special features are limited, focusing primarily on essential functions without advanced capabilities.
