Prachi's Review (A social butterfly)
The first thing I noticed in the LG A290 was its 2.2 inches display. The screen size of the LG A290 is too cramped and so I can't text that easily on this screen size. The Yes, 1.3 MP camera resolution is not that cool. You can easily opt for any other smartphone with a better camera, it might even be cheaper. I don't think this smartphone can click awesome pictures, which by the way is my favourite hobby. The USB connector lets me charge my phone even with my laptop and transfer files. The small 0.0189 GB internal storage of the LG A290 feels quite miserly. I don't understand the use of this storage if it can't contain all my media files.
