Why? QWERTY. The hard QWERTY board on LG&#8217;s first Android phone for Verizon generally delivers. I don&#8217;t like the placement of the space bar in the bottom row of letter keys, but the action on the buttons is great. And that&#8217;s a lot more than I can say about the action on Droid&#8217;s keyboard. Otherwise, Ally is a solid mid-range Android 2.1 device. You won&#8217;t get blazing fast performance, but you will get an entirely usable smartphone with a nice 3.2&#8243; display at an attractive price.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica;\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 13.0px Arial;\">{Widget type=&#8221;youtube&#8221; id=&#8221;DF-LxzrcJSE&#8221;}<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/m_NbhvMgEZ0PvLpqHPP5ZnHgX0E\/0\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/m_NbhvMgEZ0PvLpqHPP5ZnHgX0E\/0\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/m_NbhvMgEZ0PvLpqHPP5ZnHgX0E\/1\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/m_NbhvMgEZ0PvLpqHPP5ZnHgX0E\/1\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/phonedog_cellphoneblog\/~4\/L9B9-WvonCU\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In case you don&#8217;t have the time or desire to read or watch full-length reviews, I&#8217;ve summarized my take on the recent wave of smartphones for you.&nbsp; &nbsp; Click here&nbsp;for the index of my latest smartphone Quick Takes. &nbsp; LG Ally (Verizon) &#8211; $99, Pre-Order Now &nbsp; &nbsp; Me, I&#8217;d rather have an Ally than [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":671,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-578372","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mereja.media\/index\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/578372","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mereja.media\/index\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mereja.media\/index\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mereja.media\/index\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/671"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mereja.media\/index\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=578372"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mereja.media\/index\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/578372\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mereja.media\/index\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=578372"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mereja.media\/index\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=578372"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mereja.media\/index\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=578372"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
