LG Spectrum 2 (Verizon Wireless) review

The wait for a decent LG phone on Verizon is finally over with the Spectrum 2.

The LG Spectrum 2 has NFC and wireless charging capabilities, fast 4G LTE speeds, and a camera packed with features.

The Spectrum 2 comes preloaded with too much bloatware, and has a thick profile and a poor audio speaker.

With its winning combination of a reasonable price tag, wireless features, and solid performance, the Spectrum 2 is an excellent Verizon handset in its price range.

LG Spectrum 2 (Verizon Wireless)

The LG Spectrum 2 for Verizon Wireless gets you a first-rate smartphone for about half the price as other top picks.

Beautiful display. Fast performance. Good price.

Doesn't run Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean). Bulky.

LG Spectrum 2 Review

With the Holiday Season fast approaching, Verizon has introduced the new LG Spectrum 2, which is a follow-up to the original LG Spectrum that was released earlier this year. This time around, the device is more in line to compete with other mid-level...

Attractive price ; 4.7” True HD IPS display ; Good call quality

Camera quality is lacking ; Notification LED is part of the power button ; Device feels larger than it should be

We feel that the $100 contract price of the LG Spectrum 2 is a bargain, as the original Spectrum was twice that when it was released earlier this year. This newest model not only includes a larger 4.7” True HD IPS display, but has a faster 1.5GHz...

LG Spectrum 2

higher end features for a low price, large IPS HD display, good call quality and data speeds

Not the most attractive design, battery life is just OK, ships with Android 4.0 rather than 4.1

We often suggest buying the best phone you can with your contract since the phone's price is small compared to the cost of a 2 year contract. In the case of the Spectrum 2, you're not giving up much by going with this $99 smartphone vs. $199...

LG Spectrum 2 review

It has been quite a year for LG, which despite its top spot among dumbphone sales has had a bit of a difficult time making it big in the Android world. Faced with stiff competition from fellow Korea...

The Spectrum 2 offers respectable specs, decent performance, and a lovely display. Its bulky design, though, makes it feel like yesterday's leftovers, especially when you consider what competitors like HTC and Samsung are doing with their entry- and...

Review: LG Spectrum 2 for Verizon Wireless

The LG Spectrum 2 fills the mid-range smartphone category for Verizon Wireless. What the hardware lacks in style, the Android operating system from Google and user interface customizations from LG make up for in raw functionality.

Consumer review (cnet.com)

"Way too slow."

It seems as if too much resources went into bloatware, Android modification and and the screen with the result that normal operations and the battery life is severely compromised.

Really good screen.

Lagging to the point of being unusable at times.

Really good screen.

Lagging to the point of being unusable at times. Battery runs down even while charging when used for navigation.
