Verizon LG Ally Review and Photos: LG Taking Android Seriously

If you have been a fan of LG handsets for some time you probably admit that their OS seriously restricts their functionality, however the LG Ally attempts to change this by offering Android 2.1.

Recently the Android Community have reviewed the handset, and it must be said despite being no match for HTC’s latest Android handsets, it is at least a step in the right direction.

Their review takes a deep look at the Ally’s body, software, performance hardware, camera and battery, most of their review is pretty positive, however they can’t get away from the fact that in the hands it feels like “a piece of industrial equipment”, thanks to it’s heavy and ugly design.

In terms of the handset’s display and keyboard-sliding mechanics the Android Community had no complaints, however they were less than happy with the mediocre keyboard. In the end their review states that the handset is like a better version of the Motorola Devour, which is no huge compliment, check out their full review by clicking on the source link below (their review features plenty of photos).

    The LG Ally is the WORST phone ever! I initially loved it, but the constant freezing up and shutting off is truley exasperating! It shuts off after every text. This is my 3rd one and all of them have done the same thing! I don't do a lot of things on my phone. I text and check the weather…… I want to run over this phone with my car!

      I agree! This phone is pissing me off. There are cool apps to download for this phone but if I download more than two, or if I take more than 3 pictures, or if I download wallpaper or ringtones then it says my text memory is full and my phone storage is low. Then I don't get any of my texts. It restarts and removes the nice wall paper I had and replaces it with the lame wallpaper that came with the phone. I hate this phone sooooo much!

    I am on my fifth ally and despite I like the android system, the ally is a piece of crap. It freezes, hangs up in the middle of a call, shuts down for no reason, freezes up on the internet after 15-20 minutes. My husband has a fifth one as well!! SAME ISSUES!!
