LG LG510 CDMA Cookie Zip Camera and Image Quality

A 2MP camera has no flash feature. Low light shots will turn out very poor because of this. There are very few camera options on the LG510.

Video Camera and Video Quality

Videos will turn out poor in low light areas as well. These videos will be exported to MP4 format after you are done recording.

This is a single band device that supports only EVDO Rev. A 3G networks.

Organizer and other Utility Tools

Some basic tools include an alarm, calculator, voice recorder, unit converter, organizer, stopwatch, and world time.

Verdict

Good about the LG510 is its good battery life and the included stylus. The stylus is helpful due to the resistive touchscreen that poorly responds to inputs. The device itself is laggy, has a poor quality camera, and there is not a 3.5mm headphone jack. All in all, you are better off skipping the BL510, in favour of a device that offers more features.
