The LG Revolution first debuted back in the 2011 CES event in Las Vegas, and immediately got the attention of the industry watchers and smartphone enthusiasts. The phone was not actually launched on the Verizon 4G LTE network until May 2011, and the big question is, was it worth waiting for? Well we already know from the Thunderbolt that the 1 GHz Snapdragon processor and the Android 2.2 Froyo operating system can do the trick, but we need to take a look at what else LG has brought to the table to start their own revolution. And based on the number of consumers who are searching for Where to Purchase the LG Revolution for a drop dead price, we’re willing to bet that Verizon customers were plenty happy to wait on this new innovative smartphone.
Any phone that launches on the highly rated, reliable, and super fast Verizon 4G LTE network is off with a bang right out of the starting gate. The Revolution features a nice 4.3″ WVGA display with LCD resolution, supporting over 16 million colors for a rich, vibrant presentation. Its not quite as jaw dropping as the Droid Charge’s Super AMOLED Plus display, but it visually outperforms the Thunderbolt’s display easily. It is ideal for your viewing web pages, watching movies, or playing games, and renders crips, sharp images. The full Adobe Flash Player support enhances the view even further with fast frame rates and exquisite graphics rendering during any multimedia, web browsing or gaming activity.
The design of the Revolution is sleek, and handles nicely, adding to the appeal of why so many smartphone shoppers are looking for Where to Purchase the LG Revolution. While it is in line with standard smartphone designs, it does provide a little extra space between the touch-sensitive Android buttons, which reduces accidental pressing. We thought this was a very nice touch. The build quality is very good, and it feels solid in your grasp. The device offers dual cameras, with a 5 mp camera with LED flash for stills and 720p HD video capture, as well as a 1.3 mp camera for video chats.
Extra goodies on the LG Revolution include HDMI out port, 16 GB internal memory, microSD card slot, and a microUSB port. The Android 2.2 OS is upgradeable via OTA updates (over the air), and you’ll be treated to Mobile Hotspot capability for up to eight other wi-fi enabled devices, have access to a huge selection of pre-loaded Android and Google applications and services, as well as the Android Market where you will find over a million apps and games for your downloading pleasure.

The Revolution also brings a virtual QWERTY keyboard with Swype technology, on-board GPS, access to both corporate and personal email, DLNA capability, and a 16 GB microSD card. The pre-loaded Netflix app is awesome, as well as the Rock Band and Let’s Golf 2 pre-loaded games. Not only do you have instant access to thousands of movies and TV shows via the Netflix app, but you can also download movies, videos, and other content from your PC in various formats. The Dedicated Amazon MP3 Store app allows for over the air music downloads.
The LG Revolution’s features and functionality provide everything it needs to be widely accepted into the mobile phone hierarchy with cheers, including its brilliant display with superb resolution, its all powerful processor and operating system, and a multimedia feature set that is rich enough to satisfy the most demanding gaming, video, and app using customer.
The one negative we have to list about the Revolution is the battery life. It does beat the performance of the Thunderbolt’s battery, but it cannot compare to the Droid Charge’s battery. The Revolution battery provides approximately 435 minutes of talk time, as opposed to 660 on the Droid Charge.
The Revolution’s price tag at Verizon is a big bad $249.99, however Amazon Wireless is currently offering the phone for $99.99, which is less than half the full priced Verizon price. Kudos to Amazon for keeping it real. Below you will find one click access to multiple authorized Verizon phone retailers, and Where to Purchase the LG Revolution at the best possible prices.
