Comparisons Featuring LG X max

Short Review

  • The LG X Max features a simple design with dimensions of 151.6 x 76.9 x 7.2 mm and a weight of 133g, making it lightweight and easy to handle.
  • Its 5.5-inch IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 267 ppi, suitable for basic tasks but lacking HDR support.
  • Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT6735 chipset with a quad-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A53 CPU and 1.5GB of RAM, which may struggle with demanding applications.
  • The rear camera is a 13 MP unit capable of 1080p video recording at 30fps, while the 5 MP front camera is adequate for selfies.
  • The battery capacity stands at 2800 mAh, with no fast charging or wireless charging options available.
  • Running on Android 6.0.1 (Marshmallow), the software experience is basic and may lack some modern features.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac and Bluetooth 4.2, but there is no support for 5G or NFC.
  • The absence of stereo speakers is noted, although it does include a headphone jack.
  • Overall, the LG X Max is a straightforward device with essential features, suitable for users with basic smartphone needs.
