Conclusion
|
Nothing about the Optimus L5 makes it stand out from the competition. The multimedia features are lacking and the display, frankly, is mediocre. It does, however, have an enjoyable user interface and acceptable battery life. The L series appears to be having some trouble finding its place on the market. |
The Samsung Galaxy S3 delivers a first-rate user experience. With its top-notch hardware, this handset never flinches or falters. On top of that, Samsung has loaded the S3 with plenty of innovative new software features—most of which are pretty good—as well as an excellent camera and a powerful battery. The Galaxy S3 is clearly an iconic new Android phone, but for such an exciting handset, it's a shame to see such a conventional design. |
