Colossal LG Optimus Vu turns heads
Though the Optimus Vu fits into the novel "phablet" category, forking over $900 for any Gingerbread phone isn't worth it, no matter what the screen size.
Pros:
- The LG Optimus Vu is NFC-enabled
- it has a decent screen
- and for its size it's slim and lightweight
Cons:
- The Vu is expensive
- its aspect ratio is odd
- it runs on Android 2.3 Gingerbread
- and you have to carry the stylus separately

If the Galaxy Note is anything to go by, Sales of super-sized phones are not going to slow down any time soon. Not wanting to miss out on the trend, LG recently launched the Optimus Vu. Its take on the phablet form-factor includes a 5″ screen in a fairly uncommon 4:3 aspect ratio.

The LG Optimus Vu, both from hardware and software perspective, is a fully ornamented phone. It has some nifty features as well that makes it standout against competitors. But its size is what matters. Either you like the 4:3 aspect ratio or not.
Pros:
- Great for taking notes
- ebook reading
- Web browsing
- Quite fast
- User interface
- Note taking app
- Capacitive touch buttons below display can't be operated through stylus
Cons:
- No place to keep Stylus
- Camera auto focus below par
- One hand operation bit difficult during calls
- Dull looking back panel

LG Optimus Vu review
Samsung has created a product niche that it has managed to occupy all on its own for some time, and has filled it with two products. I'm talking about the Galaxy Note and Note 2 of course, which both have screens larger than five inches and so are too large to be a phone and too small to be a...
Pros:
- Some stylus input
- Good 5in screen
- Attractive price
Cons:
- Unwieldy size
- Impossible to use one-handed
- Not enough pen features

Pros:
- Great Screen & Design
- Good Camera
- High Performance
- Optimized Software
Cons:
- Awkward Dimensions
- No Place to Store the Stylus
- Average battery life

LG Optimus Vu Review
The Optimus Vu has its fair share of shortcomings, the 4:3 aspect ratio is among them. Also, the stylus was supposed to make the device unique and special - but it didn't really turn out that way (we're really hoping it will add value when you need to use it for sketching/drawing).

Optimus Vu P895 is a decent hybrid ofsmartphone and tablet from LG. But because of its unusual ergonomics and the late entry it had in the Indian market, it's hard for us to recommend you this phablet.
Pros:
- Large and bright IPS Display
- Good Processor
Cons:
- Average camera quality
- Stylus slot missing
- Clumsy design

Can this device break through the fast expanding Phablet segment? If LG's latest phablet was rubbing shoulders with a few other mobile gadgets at a retail counter, there's a good chance that it would be the first device your hands will reach for.

LG Optimus Vu Review
Some say, the LG Optimus Vu was conceived to rival the Samsung Galaxy Note II. However, that is exactly what it is not. Well, you may say that both are big-screen phones, with the rather fancily named styluses, but both seem to offer different things. The Optimus Vu is even bigger than the Note II.
Pros:
- Good display quality despite low resolution
- Stable performance
- Surprisingly good battery life
- Camera does well even in low light
- White colour looks good
Cons:
- Too big
- some say
- Pricey
- Stylus not on the same level as Samsung's S-Pen

LG Intuition Review
There's nothing like a big slab of phone to really capture the attention of people, right? Seriously, from the looks of it all, the more a smartphone goes outside the norm to appear hulkier, the greater the curiosity is amongst people in knowing what it's all about.
Pros:
- Display is great for web browsing
- Fast overall performance
- It stands out for being so large
Cons:
- No slot for the Rubberdium stylus
- Not practical for watching videos
- Poor battery life
- Shoots terrible photos and videos
