I was looking for a midrange Android phone (under $300) and I was trying to decide between Xperia U and LG Optimus L7, and I decided this one because of the microSD card feature and the screen size.

I've been using it for 6 weeks and this is my experience so far:

PROS:

- Very clear and fair-sized screen. Brilliant colors and definition, it was better then I expected for a midrange phone. Also, the screen is GorillaGlass, so it's difficult to get scratched.

- The android UI interface is very well designed, I like it more than the Galaxy's. It has some interesting features like hand-drawn memos and other cool details.

- The plastic body is resistant enough, I have accidentally dropped it twice it and had no problems neither stratches.

- Touch screen works perfect and fast.

- Speakers volume is ok.

- Battery is better than I expected, it longs the all day long with common usage, and up to 5 or 6 hours with heavy usage.

- Wifi and data work perfect and fast.

- I love the design: square borders, fair size and slim body.


CONTRAS:

- Only 512ram get be a bit slow if you have many apps. I recommend to install some app to auto-kill processes and free ram.

- Camera is a little bit crappy. The resolution is not that bad, but the lens material is very very weak so it gets easily scratched and your photos will look blury. I recommend using a transparent protector on it (even if you have a case).

- Only 4gb of internal memory may be not enough if you have many apps that storage things on the internal memory. Also, the android version of this phone doesn't let you move apps to the microSD card, so you might run out of space is you have many heavy apps.

In conclusion:

If you're looking for a midrange Android phone with a good screen for reading and a decent battery duration, this phone is highly recommended for you.

If you are looking for a phone for gaming (or whatever that recquires higher perfomance) and high-quality photos,I recommend you to look out for other options.

I hope this helps you.

                                        I just bought this phone 5days ago. So far, so good. I love the camera so much. Slim design that's why its very handy even though it has a very delicate look. Its a very good phone with a very good value.
