Not bad smartphone considering its price, no topup needed.

I am not sure this is 1GB RAM phone.
LG has mentioned there are 2 versions, one with 512 MB RAM and Dual Core. Another 1GB RAM and Quad-Core.
O2 has listed has 1GB RAM and Dual Core. One of them is definitely wrong. Also all other UK retailers seemed to have only 512MB RAM and Dual Core.

But it also states it has 8GB ROM, which would suggest it's the 1GB model as the 512MB model only has 4GB. It would be difficult to tell, Someone at O2 either got the wrong spec sheet or the incorrect promotion material.

I would guess that its the 4GB/512MB version. It's listed as 3G only in the tech spec, which is the SD200 Dual Core, 4GB Storage, 512MB RAM version (The 4G version is SD410 Quad-Core, 8GB Storage, 1GB RAM)
Even the specs at GSMArena are mixed up. It lists the specs for the low end version, but also notes that it works with several LTE bands, which only the higher spec SD410 version supports.
Also, the LG Joy's unlocked and Virgin Mobile variants are the lower spec version. I would be surprised if LG started to sell the higher spec 'Joy' in the UK, as it is barely any different to the LG Leon which was released alongside the Joy (along with the LG Spirit).

the only way to find out is to go to o2 shop and ask them to show the box- most important specs will be advertised on it, I would say it is 50/50 possibility...

Lol reading all the reviews at the bottom of the o2 page: "Average phone, basic, not a good phone, painful to use, you get what you pay for comes to mind".....comments get worse on page 2 "the phone did not work, Tap unlock is a real problem"
