Pros:

Runs Android 2,3,4, Sharp, bright display, Inexpensive monthly plans.
The LG Esteem runs on Android 2.3 Gingerbread, taps into MetroPCS' 4G LTE network, and has an impressive pair of front-and-rear-facing cameras.

Cons:

Big and bulky, Pricey, 4G speeds aren’t really 4G.
Bulky and heavy, the LG Esteem's worst offense is its poor battery life. Its slow data speeds keep it from working well outside of MetroPCS' 4G LTE territory.
