LG Unify


LG Unify
A decent starter phone for a tween, Virgin Mobile LG phone alone is the best (and the only one you should consider) for STI services Custom Virgin Mobile. But the best prepaid phone in $ 100-150 range. While compact and has excellent battery life, we are satisfied With the performance version of the phone.

The LG-weave is really just the rebranding of the LG Optimus F3, Which is out on Sprint, Virgin, Boost, T-Mobile, and MetroPCS. We gave a positive evaluation Optimus F3 when it comes out on Sprint 15 months ago, celebrating it for very long battery life STI. This model is fully customized firmware to support the Custom Virgin Mobile service, and it turns out it Means That also have quite different performance.

Voice and Performance
We thought the Optimus F3 is a very good voice phone with Sprint, but something went wrong With Concur. I've had poor voice quality When trying to phone the Sprint network, with a vague and general sound distortion at top volume. Wind causes dropouts on my voice calls. Speakerphone is better more clear, if a little fuzzy, though wind noise caused some problems still there. Wind noise also meant there was a phone in the understanding of the name for the Bluetooth voice dialing, just like F3 did.

While Unite is an LTE phone, missing this new Spark Sprint's frequency band. This means get lower speeds than LTE LG competidores like Volt Boost. In our tests Fastest Mobile Networks, we saw more than doubled Spark That speed Internet from an average of 3-6Mbps in 11-14Mbps. So not having Spark is a significant minus.

Sprint's LTE network is too slow to make our LTE streaming video rundown test, so we had to resort to Wi-Fi. The battery 2,460mAh combines with small screen relativamente here to solid, if not extraordinary battery life. We took 6 hours, 18 minutes of continuous streaming of YouTube, surprisingly less than 7 hours, 25 minutes we got With the Sprint version of this phone.

The Unite with 4GB of internal storage of only 1.24GB is free. It runs Android 4.1.2 obsolete no hope of an upgrade, with a decent 1.2GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor 400 It is a version of Android from 2015, and it is missing some major performance enhancements That been eaten since then.

Although there is a microSD card slot for your photos and videos, you can not load apps onto it, which means you ll be somewhat limited in the number of games you want to store on the phone. Understand That looks like Virgin, so the majority of these "preloaded" bloatware on the home screen are shortcuts only deletable Google Play.
