Great Phone!
Love the features of an LG phone and this one is up there. It's east to delete apps you don't want. The icons are easy to see. It's big enough for me to work on if I have to.

stopped charging
I bought this phone less than a week ago. It now won't charge very well. The phone when completely dead will charge up to 5% and turn on like it should. When it turns on its back at 0% and stays there. If i open an app up or I unplug it. It dies completely again. I've had it charging all night its still the same.

Do you really need anything more?
10 years ago
I purchaesd 2 of LG Vista 2 phones for my teenage kids. I can't believe how good this phone is.
I have a iPhone 6s Plus. I've had every top of the line Note 5, S6, G4...So I do have some perspective.
Camera.
It appears to be the same one that's in the G4. The pictures are awesome. Seriously as good as any top tier phone.
Battery.
Easily beats Note 5 and G4. Better than the G2. I would say not as good as the king, S6 Active. But it's a great performer.
Memory and processor.
Well it's a mid range 2GB/615 processor. So you would think mediocre performance. Not so. This has zero lag. Seriously again I notice no difference from the G4. I'm guessing the 64 bit architecture is at play.
Display.
It's a 1080P. The previous Vista was 720. The display is awesome. Very colorful. Very bright. It's a 5.7 panel so it's spacious. It does have a stylus. Do NOT expect a Note level stylus! It's really just for scribbling or doodling.
I think I've covered every major parts of this device. It's overall a great device.

Poor functionality, do not buy
10 years ago
The camera is pointed on an angle, so you cannot easily take front facing images
The screen is far too sensitive resulting in many strange results.
The microphone is very poor and does not receive well.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Not enough anything on this phone H740 vista, I went from a Samsung Note to LG it was a bad idea. I only used the phone for two weeks, before I went back to buy new phone. I do not recommend this cell phone for anyone over 13 years old living in the United States.
Proseasy to use

It was ok

I’ve had this phone for 3 years and it has worked for me up until about last year
May be because It was turned off for a while I did have to replace it once because the heat killed it. Most of the storage is system can’t change that but it’s a good phone teens about 7-9th grade
Yes, I recommend this product.

defintely a phone for elderly people or children.

This phone has very poor quality. At first I thought it was due to needing a software update but in all actuality, the last software update created was back in 2015. Truly sucks. The keypad is out of date, the emojis are out of date. Its definitely ancient. Not a fan whatsoever. Save yourself the trouble unless all you want to do is make/receive calls and check basic emails.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Q: Is this phone compatible for screen mirror with a Samsung Smart TV?

Samsungs support article on Screen Mirroring shows Miracast is supported which is great. You can find the mentioned article here http://www.samsung.com/au/support/skp/faq/1056913. I hope this helps!
