. Compared to the last LG model (Vu Plus for AT&T) released on the market, which was pretty expensive for its average performances, the new LG Encore GT550 seems to be considerably more fit with its easy to take in contract price of $49.99.
Although this model of handset looks like the direct successor to the original model of LG Vu with its touchscreen feature, users do hope that it can prove itself to be more decent with the offering. The package consists of: wall charger, quickstart guide and a user guide CD.

As to its design, users who are familiar with the LG Vu Plus can recognize the same features – minus the keyboard – along with the other similar elements that are incorporated in the design.
The feel of the device when grasping it is that of extreme compactness that goes with its solid fabrication although it is made of plastic. A faux-pas metallic look is outlining the device with the overall color scheme of gunmetal that allows it look more expensive than it actually is.
As a conclusion we can say that LG Encore GT550 remarks itself as an affordable device for its $49.99 when compared to the LG Vu Plus price of $149.99, especially that both of them include the same functions. With the design of LG Encore one can say that it eliminates a handset that could be given a higher price, but it can easily be noticed standing tall among similar devices in the same series.
With its modern looking design and its compact feel when holding it, LG Encore GT 550 combines a well incorporated performance which makes the option being a valid one for almost any user. Although it might not have the top-notch features of the other available handsets, it is however quite a charming device enough to take the place of another one that can be found at the same price on the handset market.
