Comparisons Featuring LG Ray
Short Review
- The LG Ray features a solid build with dimensions of 152.5 x 76.4 x 9.3 mm and a weight of 158 grams.
- Its 5.5-inch IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 267 ppi.
- Performance is powered by a Mediatek MT6592M chipset with an octa-core 1.4 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU and 1GB of RAM, which may handle basic tasks adequately but can struggle with intensive applications.
- The camera setup includes a 13 MP rear camera with autofocus and 1080p video recording, while an 8 MP front camera caters to selfies.
- The 3000 mAh battery provides decent longevity but lacks fast or wireless charging capabilities.
- Running on Android 5.1 (Lollipop), the software experience is somewhat dated compared to newer versions.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The device is available in Silver, Gold, and Titan Black colors, adding some aesthetic variety.
- While it lacks advanced features like HDR and stereo speakers, the headphone jack remains a standard inclusion.
- Overall, the LG Ray is a straightforward smartphone with basic functionality.
