32GB ... typo?

I suppose it's easy to make a mistake this early on a Sunday, during a holiday weekend no less, but that has to be a typo, no?

amylyn1970

Yes, that was a typo. If you go to the specs it says 32MB. That's a huge difference.

thephonenerd

Yeah, 32GB is a typo - The LG Encore comes with 32MB of onboard storage, expandable to 16GB.

I know, I know

This might be a decent feature phone, many of us would sneer at it compared to android, iphones, bb etc... But this would suit a decent set of the population.

Scribed3d

That depends Versed. It has a decent feature set for the price point, but will it have the recent slew of LG touchphone issues?

Meh, time will tell, I suppose.
