securitybreach Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 I sold my Atrix 4G for $230 on swappa.com and bought me a new (in the box) LG Nitro HD for $275 from ebay. The Nitro HD is a very powerful smartphone that is quite the jump from my old Atrix 4G. It has a dual core Qualcomm Scorpion processor clocked at 1.5ghz, 1gb of ram, an IPS display that has a resolution of 1280x720 (720p) and is a whopping 4.5" in size. The Nitro HD is an amazing device to say the least and I only paid an additional $40 to get it. Here are some of the specs: LG Nitro HD P930 Dimensions: 5.27 x 2.67 x 0.41" (134 x 68 x 10 mm) @ 128 grams Dual Core 1.5GHz Qualcomm Scorpian APQ8060 processor / Adreno 220 GPU 1024MB LPDDR2 SDRAM 4096MB Flash EEPROM 32768MB (32gb Class 10) MicroSDHC 4.5-inch TrueHD AH-IPS LCD capacitive Touch Screen @ 326 ppi Colors & Resolution: 16,777,216 @ 1280 x 720 / 720p Audio: Dolby SRS Surround Sound, 3.5mm Ear Jack & Speaker and active noise cancellation Network: LTE, HSDPA+ (4G) 21.1 Mbit/s, HSDPA 14.4 Mbit/s, HSUPA 5.76 Mbit/s, UMTS, EDGE Bluetooth 3.0 with A2DP, Internal antenna, HS USB 2.0 client, Hi-Speed (480Mbit/s) USB Series Micro-B (Micro-USB) connector HDMI via microUSB DLNA, MHL, Tethering, Computer sync, OTA sync Wifi 802.11 b/g/n Internal antenna, Wi-Fi Direct, DLNA, Wi-Fi hotspot GPS 8 megapixels LED Flash Camera @ 3264x2448 / Camcorder 1920x1080 (1080p HD) (29 fps) 1.3 megapixels Front Facing Camera @ 1280 x1024 pixels 1835 mAh Standard Battery Google Android 4.0.4 ICS ROM: Cyanogenmod 9 (HO!NO! CM9 "Full Throttle") Here is a stock picture just to show you how big the phone actually is (my camera's batteries died) I just finished rooting the device and installing a custom rom. I ended up having to run the SuperOneClick Root Tool like four times to get it to finally work (this is a known issue and I knew this beforehand) but now I am completely rooted running a Cyanogenmod 9 variant: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest LilBambi Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Very cool! Has more features than your Nexus 7! But then it retails for more than the Nexus 7 too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
securitybreach Posted July 25, 2012 Author Share Posted July 25, 2012 Very cool! Has more features than your Nexus 7! But then it retails for more than the Nexus 7 too. Not really: Nitro: Dual core Scorpion @ 1.5ghz with a single core Adreno 220 Nexus 7: Quad core Tegra 3 @ 1.3ghz with a 12 core Nvidia GPU Nitro: 326ppi Nexus: 216ppi Nexus 7 1280x800 Nitro 1280x720 Nexus 7 battery: 4325 mAh Nitro battery: 1835 mAh Nexus 7: 8gb storage (unlimited with usb drive and otg cable) Nitro: 4gb storage with sdcard slot (32gb max) Nexus 7: 1024mb ram Nitro: 1024mb ram Nexus 7: 802.11 b/g/n Wifi, Bluetooth 4.0, NFC, accelerometer, GPS, magnetometer, and a gyroscope. Nitro: 802.11 b/g/n Wifi, Bluetooth 3.0, Accelerometer, GPS, Gyroscope and Proximity So all in all the Nexus is much more powerful but the Nitro has a better screen and an sd card slot. Both are running Jelly Bean but the Nexus is an official JB device. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LilBambi Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Well I was mainly meaning the ppi and missing SD card on the Nexus 7, but yeah, it does balance. And the Nitro doesn't have the room for the extra battery that the Nexus 7 has but you know what I mean. Regardless both great devices.
