LG Spectrum from Verizon Unboxing

2012-01-30
greetings all this is deke Adams of pocketnow.com today we're going to do an unboxing of the LG spectrum from verizon so sit back relax enjoy the show alright so here we have the box from the LG spectrum for verizon it's an LTE phone actually I'm really surprised from help from LG that this box is actually is decent looking as it is God's while it boxes are relatively uninteresting this is the first box I've seen in a while that is actually something better than just the average cell phone provider box so we slide off this cover here pop open the box we got the phone itself which come back to in just a minute and then also in the box we've got a wall wart charger and the micro USB cable there is a few manuals and then not much else even under the device itself so well booba the fallaway turn it on and take a look so we got a 4.5 inch screen on this device it's LCD resolution is 720 x 1280 and that's really surprising for the type of device that it is pixel density is about 326 PPI and it is a scratch-resistant glass whether or not it's grill a glass I imagine that it is down at the bottom we've got the menu button the home button which is in silver we'll see if that has anything different and a back button 1.3 megapixel front facing camera there on the side here we've got a volume rocker and on this side nothing the bottom here just a small microphone important this where you remove the battery cover which sit in a second top here is the micro USB ports it's got a little flimsy door on it we'll see how that turns out headphone jack and the power button and flip the device over and we've got a 8 megapixel camera on the back with a flash and a kind of slick feeling but carbon fiber look to the plastic here and then the speaker port there you can see it's a 4G LTE phone pop off the back cover and we have the 4g sim card a 16 gig class 2 micro SD card that's pre-installed and then in 1830 milliamp hour battery and then underneath that there's just the standard information and a water sensor so let's go ahead and start this up we'll take a first look at how it is so here we've got the device finally booted up it it actually for the first time on an unboxing for me at least the battery didn't have any power in it at all so but I plugged it in and we've got it plugged in right now and it's charged and you can see at the top here and as we swipe back and forth we just did this just a moment ago and it's a little sluggish in the swiping back and forth it is in the process of downloading a system update so we'll make sure we verify that in the fold software review we've got a unsee I rather skinned Android device here it's running Gingerbread is not running ice cream sandwich at this time if i go into apps here then i've got the app locations and some setup wizards and that's where thing will go over more of that in the actual software overview and my tap home it comes up just a little bit slower than i expected to for this processor it specifically has a dual-core 1.5 gigahertz snapdragon processor it's got a gig of ram and as you saw it's got the 16 gigs of built-in storage let's go ahead and take a look at that then we can see we've got 14 gigs free available of the 16 gig card that was in there and then it's got some some internal storage according to the specifications it's got four gigs of internal storage but you can see it's only got one point six nine gigs available oral actually 1.5 three gigs available with one point six nine gigs as storage space there so we'll see how that affects the device especially with not all apps being able to take advantage of SD storage other than that we got some verizon software and applications on here unsurprisingly it does have bluetooth and Wi-Fi the 4g service will try with as part of the hardware review and we'll try out the camera as well that wraps up our unboxing of the LG spectrum from verizon if you've any comments or questions would like us to cover something specific about this device and software and or hardware let us know in the comments below give us a thumbs up if you liked this unboxing thanks for watching you
