LG Optimus One P500
Android's "Froyo" update is making its slow, inexorable march across the handsets of the globe, and it's now appearing on new devices as the default operating system. After the hash that was the manual Telstra update this is definitely a plus.
Pros:
- Decent touchscreen
- Responsive
- Android 2.2 on-board
- Bundled turn-by-turn GPS
- Mechanical menu buttons
- Cheap
Cons:
- Lacks the "wow" factor
- VGA video capture
- Gaming is hit and miss
- Earpiece is noisy
