Review on πŸ“± Locked Tracfone LG Stylo 5 4G LTE Prepaid Smartphone - Black - 32GB - Includes Sim Card - CDMA Compatible by Tony Kingdom

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Better but mostly worse

Coming from the LG Stylo 4, I was excited about this new model and wanted to put up with it. Some things are good, like more ROM and what appears to be a better processor, but there have been some nasty surprises. - The processor of the phone freezes every day. It works like a molasses snail race after about half a day of use. Performing a daily reboot helps, but doesn't completely eliminate this problem. With this version of Android, you cannot install apps in RAM, and LG no longer supports a feature that allows you to format your SD card to be recognized as internal storage. . This is a deal breaker. Sure, the phone has more onboard RAM than the Stylo4, but that's about all you'll ever have. Too bad so sad. The fingerprint scanner only doesn't work about half the time. Battery life is noticeably shorter than the Stylo4. I preferred almost everything about the Stylo4 to this new model and will probably go with another model.
