Need information before buying - LG Optimus Black

Hey guys, my sister is thinking on buying a LG p970 Optimus Black but beforehand I'd like to settle down some doubts: whats the last android version it can be updated to? Does it have a gyroscope? Does the 4.2 camera (with photosphere) work on it? Thanks!

Officially it can b updated to icecream sandwich...
Unofficially it can b updated to latest android version but it is far from stable..!!
Camera 4.2 works but is nt fully functional..infact its laggy.
Frankly go for other new phones wid bttr technology at almost same price..
Next is upto u

Please dont buy it ,, it lacks support ,, please save more and buy an s2 for example because lg phones are crappy

Samsung Galaxy grand is best at low price

I think lg nexus 4 is much more powerful and not high price at all .. i'd have bought it if it was released earlier xD

Of course price is low, but the device is failed...
Just go through Google for people opinions.
Main backlog no internal memory..

yes but these drawbacks must be expected for such a low price

It has some ripper hardware tho. 4.8" AMOLED screen, quad core processor... if you compare that to our OB i would say the HW is ~3x better than our OB which pre much puts the price into perspective.

Seems fine. What do you want to hear?
I'm thinking to update to v10f, root, install the deodexed version and remove LG apps to have less android OS usage and battery improvement, also it warms up so that's one of the points I want to rid off.
Iy is recomended to do so or i must keep my rom as it is?
Sent from my LG-P880 using Tapatalk 2
Have u tried anythng?
As much as i have noticed - Android System is always high but still what drains battery like crazy is games..
So i assume even in your case that game is real culprit.
Any update?
Sent from my LG-P880 using xda app-developers app
not bad i think, tegra is kinda a battery saving cpu, but not when playiing games
I'm on v10h now, let me use the battery down to 5% and I'll upload the results

Please do post ur results.
Also if possible also try with nvidia tegra supported hd games like dead trigger.

4.0.3 isla buggy from android AOSP, so in my opinion, when we get JB all this issue will disappear.

Believe me S2 screen is about right! And you'll thank me 4.3 is perfect for daily use u can watch perfectly a youtube video play a game and his amoled display is great bright vivid colers.
And its still a power house but even so if u think its big u. S3 Mini has a 4" screen and its pretty good ... but it has nothing to do with s3 other than the design

I have an amaze and its perfect it has 4.3 screen the problem is my dad he wants something smaller to carry due to the mobile snatching in my country that's why I was considering ace 2 and I know it has novathor chipset thats what was giving me doughts. I will check out s3 mini but I think there is a big cost to it...
Even s3 mini has nova Thor and only 200mhz per core more for a big price diff I guess I will just wait and see what to do.

The size dimensions wise is almost identical to s2 but that might be an option... But price is same as s2 hmm so you guys think ace 2 is verybad?
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using xda app-developers app
the price is just around 13000/- indian price. ace 2 is 12700/- S- advance beats ace-2 in many aspects. ace-2 has a 3.8" screen and advance has a 4" screen. I don't think there's so much you can do with that. S-Advance is better option than ace-2. just saying.

Again don't want big screens. Plus mini has nova Thor CPU and for that it is just to exp. I have actually decided to pickup LG l3 2. It's the perfect size screen very low cost comes with jellybean and has 10+ hrs talk time the talk time is something I really needed.
