LG Esteem (MetroPCS) price range: $349.99
- Reviewed by: Jessica Dolcourt
- Reviewed on: 10/10/2011
The good: The LG Esteem runs on Android 2.3 Gingerbread, taps into MetroPCS' 4G LTE network, and has an impressive pair of front-and-rear-facing cameras.
The bad: Bulky and heavy, the LG Esteem's worst offense is its poor battery life. Its slow data speeds keep it from working well outside of MetroPCS' 4G LTE territory.
The bottom line: Specs-wise, the LG Esteem is MetroPCS' fastest and most advanced phone, but its dismal battery life is a terrible disservice.
MetroPCS will forever hold the distinction of being the first to offer the U.S. an LTE market and phone 11 months ago, but it's also been the slowest in developing a 4G portfolio. The LG Esteem represents the carrier's second LTE smartphone since MetroPCS first launched the Samsung Galaxy Indulge.
Unlike the Galaxy Indulge, the Esteem has no slide-out keyboard to accompany its all-touch screen. It's thick, solid, and square as a brick, but it's also MetroPCS' best smartphone to date. The large, vibrant touch screen, the dual cameras, and the faster processor all add to the appeal, but there's a major sticking point that keeps the Esteem from reaching its potential: its abysmal battery life.
There are some other perks as well: the HDMI-out port, for one, and the 720p HD video capture for another. In addition, MetroPCS will offer a 90-day free subscription to Rhapsody. The LG Esteem costs $249 after a $100 mail-in rebate, without a contract.
Design
The nice way to describe it is that the LG Esteem is a brick with racing stripes. It's a thick black square with sharp edges and thin silver metal accents down the spines (the square edges on the phone's face take some getting used to.) It's a hefty 6-ouncer, which we usually see when a phone is brimming with metal accents and a thick keyboard. There's no keyboard here, but the upside is that the phone is sturdy-strong and likely to take a little abuse before cracking (not that we'd recommend it, mind you.)
Beaming up at you is a 4.3-inch WVGA touch screen (480x800-pixel resolution) with a Corning Gorilla Glass topper and support for 262,000 colors. The result is a bright, colorful, and sharp screen. The Esteem runs on Android 2.3 Gingerbread, with a subtle custom interface that adds just a few touches, like access to Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, airplane mode, and so on from the pull-down notification bar. Swype comes preinstalled on the Esteem, but you can always switch to the standard Android keyboard if you'd prefer.
The Esteem, as we said, is a thick phone, and the dimensions match--5 inches tall, 2.6 inches wide, and 0.5-inch thick. It's a bit bulky for most pockets and the weight is significant--just know what you're getting into.
Below the screen are four touch-sensitive buttons: Menu, Home, Back, and Search. On the right side there's a covered Micro-HDMI adapter port and the volume rocker. On the left, you'll find the covered Micro-USB slot. Up top are the lock/power button and the 3.5-millimeter headset jack. The 5-megapixel camera lens is on the back, along with a flash (it does 720p HD video capture, too). Beneath the soft-touch back cover is the microSD card slot.
In addition to the rear-facing camera, there's a 1.3-megapixel lens above the display that's well-suited for self-portraits and video calls.
Features
With Android, you know where you stand. As with the rest of the Gingerbread men, the Esteem has all the Google goodies--Google Maps, Gmail, turn-by-turn navigation, Google Places, YouTube, the works.
That subtle custom experience we mentioned also finds its way into other aspects of the phone, for instance the deep integration of several social networks. For example, when you begin adding accounts, you can sign into Twitter, Facebook, and MySpace apps that have been customized by LG to work on the phone. LG has also made Yahoo and Windows Live Hotmail accounts easy to sign into from the Accounts menu.
Back in the land of apps, LG and MetroPCS have laid down a thick welcome mat. The upside is that the phone looks less empty and more populated than it might otherwise. The downside is, if you don't like the selections, the prepopulated app tray may smack of uninstallable bloatware. For starters, there's Astro file manager, an application manager, Yahoo finance, Guided Tours, Loopt, Pocket Express, Polaris Office, and the Rhapsody music service.
There's also the SmartShare home networking app (the Esteem supports DLNA), and essentials like a clock, a calendar, a calculator, a newsreader, and a memo pad. MetroPCS has also added its regular complement of apps, including a browser, a navigator, a backup app, an online storefront for purchasing more ringtones and music, a 411 service, and a Wi-Fi sniffer. There's also the MasterCard-backed VCPay mobile app for MetroPCS customers to use for purchases--it's designed to be used as a debit card for those who don't have a credit card, and it requires a $1.49 monthly fee.
When it comes to music, the Rhapsody music app complements the basic Android music player. MetroPCS has partnered with Rhapsody to offer Esteem owners a free 90-day trial subscription. The Esteem also boasts the Dolby Mobile Surround 7.1 system. Music sounded plenty loud and fairly rich when played through the Esteem's speakers, though even Dolby wasn't able to completely eradicate the slight buzz and tininess that are par for the course when playing music from a cell phone. Hard-core audiophiles still won't be pleased with the audio quality, but most people should be happy enough with the sound. We were certainly happy enough listening to songs play while working on this review.
Camera
At 5 megapixels for the rear-facing camera, the Esteems' shooter may not capture the highest number of megapixels on the market, but it doesn't need to. Instead, it joins other 5-megapixel cameras (like those of the Samsung Focus and iPhone 4) to show that competent software trumps numbers alone. Photos are crisp and colorful, with good color fidelity, auto-focus, and a well-calibrated flash that correctly didn't engage when taking well-lit indoor shots. There's very little shutter lag.
The front-facing camera surprised us most. The 1.3-megapixel shooter's reproductions were much less grainy (and much more flattering) than many other front-facing cameras, even those with 2 megapixels. Although there were predictably some issues with color reproduction, edges, and clarity (especially with video), it's one of the better front-facing cameras we've seen.
LG's interface is also intuitive and easy to use, with well-considered submenus and a handy shortcut to get to the photo gallery without leaving the camera app entirely. For the more detail-oriented photographers, there are plenty of options to tweak image size, shooting mode, ISO, white balance, color effect, and focus. One of our favorite features, the Esteem will let you edit a photo immediately after capturing, without having to leave the camera app. A plethora of tools let you crop, rotate, adjust colors and lighting levels, resize the image, add effects, and annotate, all before sharing. Kudos to LG for a really seamless effort.
Video capture and playback were also good with both front- and rear-facing cameras. Volume was loud, though quieter when we turned the camera on a subject. The image jerked when we did; some image stabilizing software wouldn't be a bad idea. Overall, playback was pretty smooth from the 720p HD-capable 5-megapixel lens.
The Esteem has a respectable 8GB of internal memory and accepts up to 32GB more in its microSD card slot.
Performance
We tested the dual-band (CDMA 850/1900; LTE 1700/2100) LG Esteem in San Francisco and San Diego on MetroPCS' network. Call quality was totally OK, though not as crystal clear as we've heard elsewhere. Volume could have been higher; set to the maximum volume our friends sounded fine, but we would have liked that level at medium volume. Voices sounded a bit unnatural, digitized, and wavery, but there was absolutely no background noise. On their end, our friends said we sounded clear, loud, and good. Their only complaint was that our voice tended to distort a bit at the highest frequencies.
Speakerphone sounded great to our ears, without any background crackling or hiss, and with louder volumes than when we held it up to our ear. Not so for our callers; they noted that we sounded distant when we held the phone at waist-level. While our voice quality remained high, they said we sounded a little muffled, and that the high-frequency clipping was also more pronounced--they had to listen intently to carry on a conversation.
LG Esteem call quality sample
Listen now:
A 1GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor powers the Esteem. While it's no dual-core processor, it's still plenty fast and we were able to navigate the phone and complete all our tasks without noticing any problems.
When it comes to data speeds, the Esteem is in rockier territory. MetroPCS may technically have an LTE network, but it's never been known to move as quickly as Verizon's LTE, for instance, or even as fast as T-Mobile or AT&T's HSPA+. However, the 4G data speeds are much faster than the 2.5G data network (1x RTT) that MetroPCS has deployed as its 4G fallback, and which also serves as its standard data network. If you're a MetroPCS subscriber in a 4G market like San Francisco, the speeds are indeed noticeably faster. While in San Diego, Web sites loaded much slower, and downloads were positively pokey.
Battery life was the phone's most disappointing feature. The Esteem has a rated battery life of 3.5 hours talk time and up to 8.3 days of standby time on its 1500mAH battery. In real-time, the battery drained quickly and we often found the phone turned off when we fished it out from our bag. You'll find yourself charging at least once, probably twice a day. It's the Esteem's single most concerning feature, especially for active data users, and the one thing that gives us pause in recommending the phone.
FCC radiation tests measured a digital SAR of 0.85 watt per kilogram.
Conclusion
If the Samsung Galaxy Indulge was a step in the right direction for MetroPCS' 4G lineup, the LG Esteem is a leap. Sure, it's a single-core Android device, it's bulky, and there's no HD video capture, but it does have Android 2.3 Gingerbread, an impressive set of front-and-rear-facing cameras, and pretty good call quality. In short, the Esteem is a great example of a higher-end phone for a modest, contract-free carrier. The pricing is right too, for a prepaid phone. However, we wouldn't recommend pocketing the Esteem if you're outside MetroPCS' 4G LTE market, since data is molasses-slow on the 2.5G fallback network. And while we like the phone's hardware and software, the dismal battery life is a heavy black mark against it. If not for the poor battery showing, it would easily be the carrier's best phone.

Overall a Fantastic Phone !!!
by the2silverwolf on October 11, 2011
Pros: Amazing Screen, Clear Easy to Hear Audio (Even when laying on top of the speaker on a flat desk, Easy to Type on, Gingerbread 2.3, Good GPS Signal, Good Phone Signal, Acceptable Battery Life, Great Performance, Thin and Solid Build but not Heavy. Front F

Summary: This is a fantastic phone, It has the best screen that I have ever seen. Gorilla Glass too, so hard to break or scratch it. I think the CNet reviewer did a horribly poor job on his review. The 4G speeds on Metro are great (Fast enough that I don't even bother turning on Wifi most of the time), the coverage area in Dallas/Fort Worth is very good also. This is the best phone I have ever owned, hands down (and I have an iPhone 4 in the closet). LG doesn't put any restrictions on what you can install (unlike Samsung on the Indulge).
I honestly can't think of anything I want that this phone doesn't provide, and 4G service with metro is $55/mo including taxes. Boo on all you iphone customers paying $110/mo after taxes for 900 minutes of 3G service.
It's been rooted already and it's an easy process, so root it and pull off two or three pieces of MetroPCS crapware and you have a perfect phone !!!!7 out of 7 users found this user opinion helpful.

Everything I need, at a great price!
by sos125 on October 8, 2011
Pros: Larege screen, flash camera, HDMI out, Android 2.3, Front camera, LTE
Cons: Metro's limited LTE coverage. But hopefully that will be fixed sometime soon.

Summary: Best phone on Metro hands down. Also, for those that don't want or need a SUPER phone, this fits all my needs and more. To the idiot who complained at the bottom of the reviews about the price... $350 off contract without the mail in is still a great price for this phone. But if that guy would have just waited a few hours, he would have known Metro owned up to it's mistakes, and is accepting the Mail in Rebates for purchases even before October. Battery is not bad at all, and with moderate usage (talk, text and some light gameplay) can last 12 hours. I wound up getting an extended battery since I will take advantage of the unlimited data with Netflix.

Summary: The battery life is not great, but it does last me all day, any other android or smart phone I owned never lasted me all day, so I would say that the battery is not all that bad!! Love all the things you can do with this phone, and the size of it may be a problem with some, but I love the large screen. The camera is awsome, and I like that is has a flash, and front facing camera!! As for price I think its a STEAL for a phone like this. I have paid more and got less, and had to be locked into a contract. Overall I am 100% happy with METRO, and the LG ESTEEM :)

Lives Up to its Name
by TehAtheist on November 19, 2011
Pros: Vibrant display, LG UI, Fast, 4G Capable
Cons: Battery life, occasional lock up, death grip

Summary: I switched to this phone from the Motorola Triumph and I love it. LG's UI is really nice and clean and I love the added features coming with it. Things run quickly and smoothly on this device (even though I don't live in a 4G zone). The display is vibrant and large.
I have had some issues though. When I grip the phone, the signal (WiFi and cell) drops. I don't know if this is just my particular device, but it can cause some irritations. There is an occasional lock up, but it's sporadic and not too cumbersome. The battery life isn't as bad as what I had on the Triumph, but it did overheat at one instance. Again, sporadic issues.
Other than some minor hiccups, this is a fantastic phone.2 out of 2 users found this user opinion helpful.

Summary: This is an excellent cell phone. It comes with android 2.3 (gingerbread) which is a nice OS even if it is not the latest version. The screen is big and clear calls sound great in your ear or on speaker phone. There is very little lag when using this phone and it comes with 8gb of storage built in and about 5.5gb is actually available to the user. The number one complaint with this phone is battery life but this is an issue with all android phones and can be largely fixed by installing a free app called juice defender or it's pay app cousin ultimate juice. I still keep an eye on what i do with the phone throughout the day but I have only had to recharge it once on a day when it saw particularly heavy use by my kids using it to play games. The other is that this phone is a bit short on ROM memory (512mb.) when a lot of apps are running it may lag a bit but this does not happen often and should not be a concern because it generally does not experience lag as often as lesser phones so for most users any lag experienced will feel negligible. This is the best phone currently in MetroPCS' line up and the best cellphone I have owned.
this is the metropcs phone to have
Updated on Mar 15, 2012
Updated on Mar 15, 2012As for any issues with this phone, I have had none but as a long time MetroPCS customer I can offer some advice... 1- buy this phone from a store which offers a return policy (mostly franchisees and second tier cellular stores like letstalk.com.) 2- GET THE INSURANCE ON YOUR SERVICE PLAN! If nothing else works you can claim it was stolen and you will only be out the deductible. 3- register the phone with LG right away BEFORE turning it on. 4- The moment it looks like their might be an issue with the phone start calling customer service - from the place you bought it, LG, and metropcs- and ask questions about the issue like "has anyone else reported having similar problems?"
When it comes to their products, EVERY company wants to use its rules against you so do everything you can within that system to protect yourself
MetroPCS' customer service is no worse than anyone else's. You have to learn to use any company's system to your advantage because that is what they want to do to you. -
customer service is bad.

Summary: we bought 3 of these phones,all 3 worked fine for about a week and then one started having problems.a set of earphones would popup and no one could hear you but you could hear them.so my daughter being over the minute limit with metro elected to send the phone back to LG direct,called got the info for returning and was transferred to a address line.the message gave the address and the message to remove the back,the battery and the sim card but not knowing what the sim card was she removed the 4g card and it clearly states on the card " DO NOT REMOVE" and she was told by the salesperson at metro never to remove it so she put the card back in and she sent the phone back waited about 10 days and got the phone back without the 4g card.so i called both the main office and the repair center in ft.worth and ask about the card and the screen protector.here is my last conversation:anytime a phone comes to the repair center and has the sim card in it,the card is destroyed ,and all cosmetics such as the face plate is replaced.the phone is then repaired and sent back to the customer.now this model will only work with the uicc card that came with the phone and no other card and you cannot buy one and have it matched to the phone.Then why would you destroy the card ,repair the phone and send it back to the customer knowing the phone will never work again? so we have a $300 phone that is useless.i have no idea of why they would toss the only card that this phone will work with,spend the time and money to repair it and send it back to the customer knowing it won't work.they say they destroy it for your security but that sounds a little lame.they have to come up with a way to return the card or replace the card or at least contact the customer and tell them they are returning the phone unrepaired because you left the card in it and because of security reasons you must remove the card and then return the phone for repairs.alot of hassell but better then what we got.be careful even though the card says do not remove take it out or you will end up with a door stop.i am hoping LG sees the error was partly their fault and replace the phone or find a way to re-card it but i have by doubts.
