Bottom Line
In a market flooded with budget smartphones, the LG Volt 2 tries and succeeds in making a solid name for itself.
The LG Volt 2 is a 2015 5-inch budget Android smartphone that received positive reviews for its attractive design which features a curved arc finish, rear-facing buttons, and a brushed aluminum look at the back. Users were satisfied with the screen quality as well as the performance, in which it does pretty well for its price. Its expandable memory and removable battery capabilities were also warmly welcomed. However, both the front and rear cameras are uninspiring, and at only 8GB, internal storage is limited. Bloatware from Boost Mobile also undermines the software experience, but all in all, the LG Volt 2 is a decent smartphone, that offers good value for the money.
