The phone dialer is easy to use, and if you don't want to use the physical keyboard, you are free to use the Android virtual keyboard, too. Underneath the display are two touch-sensor keys for the Back and the Search functions. The volume rocker and charger jack are on the left spine, and the right is home to the microSD card slot and dedicated camera button. The screen automatically adjusts from portrait to landscape mode when that happens.
We're really big fans of the keyboard, much more so than the keyboard on the Droid. It's roomy, there's a dedicated number row, and the keys are a good size. They're raised above the surface and are separate and distinct from each other, resulting in a super tactile feel that allowed us to type with speed.
Also on the right of keyboard is a square navigation toggle, which is a nice alternative to just using the touch screen. Features If you've used other Android 2. Other features include text and multimedia messaging, visual voice mail, speech-to-text recognition, voice commands, Wi-Fi, A-GPS, and stereo Bluetooth. You also get the standard Android browser, which we love. You can double tap to zoom in and out, but there's no pinch to zoom like on the iPhone. Of course, as this is an Android phone, we would be remiss if we didn't mention the Android Marketplace, where you can download many more apps and games.
It essentially syncs your Twitter and Facebook contacts with your Google contacts, and provides easy access to both services via a custom user interface that lets you easily check the latest updates and messages from either service. Business users will be happy with the LG Ally. We were able to set up a variety of e-mail accounts on here, including a Gmail, one of course, and we could sync to our corporate Exchange server, which allows us to sync our Outlook calendar and contacts as well.
For document editing and reading, Microsoft QuickOffice comes standard with the Ally. If you want a bit of fun with your phone, the Ally won't disappoint you there either. The LG Ally is most commonly compared with these phones:. Screen-to-body - Shows what approximate part of the frontal area of a phone its screen occupies.

Unfortunately, times and technology change and because this is a older phone, it just isn't up to today's standards.
Although it's an Android, I'm thinking it's one of the first generations so although you can access Google Play and all the aps, almost none of them are compatible with this phone which makes functionality tough. However, if you're OK with that, and can charge the phone every 2 hours or so, the call quality is good and I love the slide out qwerty keyboard.
Verified purchase: Yes Condition: Pre-owned. I was looking for a device that was more stable and had a keyboard. While it maybe a little slower then other Andriod phones, navigation between menus and screens are very easy. Ease of adding on widgets and short cuts are very nice. Since I had an account with Google and a Windows phone designed to sync information with the account, all I had to do is type in my username and password into my Android phone and all my contacts and calendar events were up and running in seconds.
I also was able to find Widgets that matched the Today screen on my old Windows phone. The widgets are a lot easier to navigate without bumping the wrong thing on the screen. A couple things are minor dislikes.
Built in memory is only about mb. However that can be resolved with a MicroSD card. Some of the navigation keys are a little too close on the slider keyboard, so it is easy to exit from what you were doing. Also, it seems certain phone setting are not available, for example, lock settings, or different sound profiles. I'm sure there is an app out there to fix that issue.
The processor is only mhz, so if your looking for multimedia performance, then you might be disappointed. I will never go back to a Windows phone again.
