Value for the dollar invested

This is a good good smartphone at the current pricepoint. Basic functions are good. However fails in some departments like skype video call. My take is that the phone gets heated when high processing power is expected. The phone needs a jelly bean 4.1.2 update.
Pros:
  • heating

The LG Optimus 4X HD is a phone for hardcore gadget junkies who demand top-drawer specs and don't mind paying a serious wack of cash to get them. They will also have to be happy carrying spare batteries to keep the 4X juiced up, as its quad-core chip takes a toll on battery life.
Pros:
  • High-resolution screen
  • Ships with the latest version of Android
Cons:
  • Poor battery life
  • Camera has trouble staying focused
