Three NFC-tagsIntroductionIn
the past year as an experiment to promote 3D in mobile devices come
from two companies, LG and HTC, releasing to the market for a single
model. Unfortunately,
the technology of three-dimensional images were (and are) in its
infancy, so the devices do not say that failed in sales, but not
particularly popular. Accordingly,
the Taiwanese company decided not to experiment, especially since the
end of 2011 financial results were unsatisfactory. I wonder what other companies do not bother about it. LG
also has not done anything extraordinary, but at the Mobile World
Congress 2012 still showed Optimus 3D Max (P725) - easy to upgrade the
previous smartphone Optimus 3D (P920) with two cameras on the rear.Both
devices do not differ from each other: the same module camera of 5
megapixels, a processor from Texas Instruments, the number of built-in
Flash-memory and so on. The only difference is that the novelty
was another building, more "RAM" and NFC-chip. Currently the cost of P920 is an average of 15 000 rubles, and the large scatter of P725 - from 15 700 to 20 000.The design, size, controlsPerhaps, I thought, but the design of the apparatus was quite boring, even with respect to the previous model. If
the P920 front panel has been played up two plastic inserts at the top
and bottom, and was present at the back of the metal plate, the P725 can
not boast of any decorative elements - a simple black rectangle (the
typical modern touch phone), back cover is slightly arched, as in the
Samsung Galaxy S and S II. I can not say that he began to look worse, but did not become better.Holds
the device is completely made of plastic: bottom, right and left - the
glossy top - semi-gloss with a thin knurled (back cover is made of the
same material). Fingerprints are only on the screen will be erased relatively easily.The dimensions are large enough 3D Max - 126.8x67.4x9.6 mm and weighs 148 grams. However, Optimus 3D was even bigger and heavier - 128.8x68x11.9 mm and 168 grams. Despite the reduction in thickness, still feels that the machine a few thick, so the hand is not very convenient.Build
quality is excellent, no complaints there: the case is perceived
monolithic, with high compression does not creak and crackle, and the
rear cover is held tightly. For a long time testing on the device does not add any scratches or scuffs, no chips. Everything is done soundly.On the front panel are two sensors: approaching and lighting. The impression that the latter did not work, because the brightness level is not regulated. In commercial samples, everything should be fine. Next to them - front camera and speaker. Its volume is high, but at a great level can be a bit making strange noises. Interlocutor can hear clearly and legibly with respect.Under the screen - touch the button "Search", "Back," "Home" and "Menu". Without the backlight can not see them, so if it goes off, orient, where which button - hard.From left are: microUSB-socket, covered by a shutter in the style of Prada by LG 3.0, two separate flat volume control buttons. Pressing hard, there is a distinctive sound "clicks." Activate the camera shutter button and switch between 2D/3D-rezhimami - on the right. At the top end are a standard 3.5 mm audio jack for headphones and a recessed on / off button phone. Microphone -
on the bottom.Camera lenses, and handsfree speaker - at the rear part.To remove the back cover, it is necessary to hook the notch on the bottom. SIM-card inserted above the battery, memory card slot - even higher (supported by the "hot" replacement). The idea is that the right of the battery must be contacts for
NFC-chip antenna, but in my sample, they were absent.LG 3D max and Samsung BeamLG 3D max (left) and Samsung Galaxy S 3LG 3D max (left) and Samsung Galaxy Note.DisplayIn
LG Optimus P725 is set 4.3-inch display (the physical size 94h56 mm)
with a standard resolution for most Android - 480x800 pixels. Type
of matrix - TFT-LCD, supports the display of 16 million shades of
color, touch layer - capacitive, work out up to ten simultaneous
touches. The sensitivity is high.Brightness
can be adjusted manually or automatically - the light sensor (his work
is invisible in the same way as in the previous model). During the shutdown screen when the phone is brought to the person meets the proximity sensor (APDS9900). Fires quickly and clearly.There is an accelerometer and a gyroscope.Image quality is excellent: high brightness (520 nits), bright colors and low pixelation. The viewing angles are great, but if you tilt the screen smart phone for themselves or on my own - slightly reduced brightness. "The depth of the black" is average, TFT-LCD loses much AMOLED for this characteristic.Screen at different anglesIf
we talk about the operation of the screen in 3D, then the effect of
three-dimensional image is achieved due to parallax barrier technology,
ie on
the matrix screen is a film with alternating opaque vertical stripes
(width of 2 pixels) and the narrow gaps between them transparent. Through
these gaps at a certain distance to the screen of the left eye sees the
stereogram, designed for him and formed only the even pixels and the
right - odd. As a result, the observer the illusion of three dimensions.The
most high-quality 3D-effect is seen at a distance of 15-40 cm before
and after picture of these values either doubles or volume effect
disappears. Look at the screen must be strictly at right angles. If you rotate the phone for at least 5-10 degrees, the image is distorted.Unfortunately,
the developers of LG does not have to use a different unit matrix, so
the effect of three-dimensional image as being inferior, and left.The only feature that I was interested in, - 3D-converter. With it you can convert virtually any 2D application (of course, preferably on the basis of OpenGL) in three-dimensional. The smartphone performs this operation is not always correct, and not all programs / games that support it. For example, no problem go «NOVA», «ShadowGun», «Running Fred», Google Maps. A «Angry Birds», «Fruit Ninja» and others - without the effect of 3D.BatteryThe device uses a lithium-ion (Li-Ion) battery is 1500 mAh. Model - BL-48LN. The manufacturer claims a full charge the battery should last up to four hours of talk time and up to four - in standby mode.A
full charge the battery enough for me for 7-8 hours at the following
pattern of use: 50% brightness, 15-20 minutes a day, about an hour
shooting photos and video, about two hours of music, about three hours
of 3G-Internet. At maximum volume and maximum backlight P720 can play video for three and a half hours (in 3D mode a little less).Communications capabilitiesThe phone works in networks GSM 850/900/1800/1900, HSDPA 900/1900/2100. The speed HSDPA - 21 Mbit / s, HSUPA - 5.76 Mb / s, EDGE - 236 Kbit / s, GPRS 32-48 Kbps / sec. There is a Bluetooth version 3.0 with A2DP and EDR. The
module Wi-Fi (802.11 b / g / n) supports DLNA (Digital Living Network
Alliance) - a standard that allows compatible devices to transmit and
receive on your home network, different media content (images, music,
videos) and display it in a mode real-time.The smartphone can be used as an access point (Wi-Fi hotspot). For data transfer and synchronization present USB (Mobile High-Definition Link) version 2.0.In
the apparatus there is a chip NFC - Near Field Communication
(«near-field communication") - the high-frequency technology for
wireless short-range communication, which enables the exchange of data
between devices at a distance of about 10 centimeters. Alas, in my chip Semple was not there. I recall that I enjoyed the non-profit model, so to speak, «not for sale».If
we talk about the differences, the LG Optimus P920 «Bluetooth" was 2.1,
and the speed of HSDPA is not greater than 14 Mbit / s. In addition, the "old" model was a single port HDMI, the "new" - combined with the USB.Memory, Memory CardMemory device is 1 GB (LG 3D - 512 MB).On average, about 480 MB free. Flash memory to 8 GB of available approximately 5.36 GB. Approximately 1.5 GB "scored" a variety of applications, games, and examples of 3D-video.The kit does not include microSD-card memory.The maximum amount that can be set - up to 32 GB.CameraTo create a stereo image in the LG Optimus 3D uses two cameras to 5 megapixels.The main camera - the top.3D-picture shot in the resolution to 3 megapixels, the usual - up to 5MP. Three-dimensional movies are recorded at resolutions up to 720p,the usual - up to 1080p at 30 frames per second.Quality in 2D increased (compared to the LG P920) from 8 to 16 Mbits / s in 3D - from 6 to 12 Mbit / s.As usual photos, the P725 boasts nothing there:they are obtained by the dim, low-quality, low dynamic range.For the focus adjustment is necessary to press the screen to the right place.Video is recorded at resolutions up to 1920x1080 pixels at 30 frames per second, the sound is written in Mono.The quality is excellent:natural color, smooth change in brightness, wide viewing angle.There is a stabilization!For video on the device there is a frontal VGA-camera.

the left-not better than most vehicles on the Android. "Cold" start - about 4 minutes, the "hot" - 4-6 seconds. For navigation, use "Maps".The shell and menuAs the design stands firm shell Optimus UI. Updates or new features have not noticed, most likely, we see them in the firmware Android 4.0.To activate the backlight, press the power key. On the "lock screen" provides information about the time, date, and the network. To unlock, you need to pull the picture up.At the bottom of the screen are fixed (can be replaced) Four label: "phone", "contacts", "sms" and "menu". Desktops can be here until 7. With long-term retention of a finger on the screen displays a list of widgets, shortcuts, folders, and wallpaper. Interestingly, the widgets can be full screen or on a third screen. To see all the desktops, you must collect your fingers pinch the center of the screen.In this form, set the default desktop.Pull the top down "notification area",you will find quick launch Wi-Fi,Bluetooth, GPS, activation data or sound on / off.It also displays the music widget.The menu is presented in three styles:"category", "page" or "list".In the first case of an application are separated by categories.They can create, edit and move shortcuts. In the second - labels are located on the virtual pages (like on the menu TouchWIZ).In the third case - a list where there is a search for the letter.ChallengeDialer convenient: when entering the first digit, a list of subscribers with matching numbers. When
a call displays a small picture of contact, as well as the button"Turn
