TechRadar rated the phone 3½ out of 5 stars, while PhoneArena rated it an 8.0 out of 10.0. Similar handsets The LG Optimus 3D is a direct competitor of the HTC Evo 3D which also has 3D capabilities, although the latter only allows for 2 MP in 3D recording mode, as opposed to 3 MP for the LG handset. The LG Revolution features similar specifications, excluding a dual-core CPU, a 3D screen, hot key, and camera, but having 4G LTE capability, larger internal memory, and on Verizon's network. LG announced a successor, the LG Optimus 3D Max, at Mobile World Congress, along with the Optimus 4X HD and the Optimus Vu. Due to a new 3-D converter, the 3D Max offers a better 3D experience than its predecessor. With 9.6 mm thickness and 148 grams weight, the model is about two millimeters thinner and 20 grams lighter than its predecessor. 2D images from Google Earth and Google Maps can be transformed into 3D images. A button on the side of the phone allows the user to switch between 2D and 3D view. In April 2012, the LG Optimus 3D Max also came onto the market in Europe.
