Review: LG Vu Plus
Photos
Image quality was a mixed bag on the LG Vu Plus. When photos were good, they were quite good, with nice color, fine details and an overall sharp look. The camera was able to focus on some spots perfectly, even picking up a wispy spider web against the background of my back yard. But when photos were bad, they were just awful. When the focus misses its mark, which was quite common, or when the camera has trouble adjusting to ambient light, my images were completely unusable. The flash is bright, but it blows out everything before it. So, in the end it's a crap shoot, but if you take enough photos, you're sure to end up with a few good ones. Definitely good enough for sharing on Facebook or other social networks, though I wouldn't bother printing any of these.
Video
The videos I shot with the LG Vu Plus were horrendous. They had all the normal problems with camcorder phones, like pixelation, a wavy shake and bad color problems. But the camera was incapable of dealing with the light from a bright sunny day, usually an easier task for these devices. There were moments when the entire screen was washed in a bright, white glare, even though the afternoon was only moderately sunny.
