Design and Display
The LG Stylo 2 sports a clean and ergonomic design that feels comfortable to hand. Its dimensions of 155 x 79.5 x 7.4 mm and weight of 144.6 grams strike a balance between a large display and portability. On the front, you’ll find a 5.7-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels. While it might not boast the highest pixel density or the sharpest resolution, the display is vibrant and offers decent color reproduction, making it more than adequate for browsing, watching videos, and casual gaming.
Performance and Storage
The LG Stylo 2 is powered by a quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 processor clocked at 1.2GHz, coupled with 2GB of RAM. The LG Stylo 2 runs on Android 6.0 Marshmallow with LG’s custom skin on top. The device offers 16GB of internal storage, which can be expanded via a microSD card if you need more space for apps, photos, and videos.
Camera System
The LG Stylo 2 features a 13-megapixel rear camera with LED flash, capable of capturing good-quality photos in well-lit environments. However, because of its smaller aperture, it might have trouble in dimly lit environments. In excellent daylight, the front-facing 5-megapixel camera for selfies and video calls produces respectable results. While not very innovative, the camera features are more than sufficient for documenting routine events and posting them on social media.
Battery and Connectivity
As for battery life, the LG Stylo 2 is equipped with a removable 3,000mAh battery. With moderate use, you can expect the device to last a full day, but heavy users might need to recharge before the day ends. In terms of connectivity, the Stylo 2 supports 4G LTE, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.1, and GPS. It also includes a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor, providing an added layer of security for unlocking the device and accessing apps.
