Review: LG Optimus S

Form Basics Extras Video Tour Wrap-Up Comments 10

Even the Entertainment Sprint ID pack does little to improve the stock music experience on the LG Optimus S. The player is essentially the same music player that shipped with Android 1.0. It's not horrible, but it doesn't offer any advanced playback controls or options to tweak the sound from your music. There are plenty of other apps available from the Android Market, but music playback is one area in which Android comes up short compared to devices like the Apple iPhone 3GS. I do appreciate the search options from the music player. By clicking on the artist, song or album name, you can start a search on Google, YouTube or even Pandora. So, if you want to hear more music like Lady Gaga, just click on her name to open a Lady Gaga channel in the Pandora app.
