LG Revolution
The LG Revolution
Measures 5.1 by 2.6 by 0.5 inches (HWD)
And weighs 6.1 ounces. That's a hair lighter than the Thunderbolt, but over an ounce heavier than the Droid Charge. It feels solid, but heavy. Clad in soft-touch black plastic, with a few silver accents, the Revolution has a nice, luxurious feel.
The 4.3-inch, 480-by-800-pixel capacitive touch screen is bright and vibrant, though it lacks the deep colors of the Super AMOLED Plus screen on the Droid Charge. There are four haptic feedback-enabled touch buttons beneath the screen, which are suitably responsive. Typing on the on-screen screen keyboard was a breeze in both landscape and portrait mode. Dialing phone numbers was equally simple.
