LG Optimus One
The LG Optimus One feels like a better device than LG's GT-540 Optimus. We prefer the design and we like that the buttons are to the point, unlike the Huawei Ideos, which goes a little overboard on controls.
Pros:
- LG's tinkering isn't too aggressive
- Android 2.2
- smartphone features at an affordable price
Cons:
- Low resolution display
- camera performance isn't anything to get excited about
- flex in the display centre means the capacitive display behaves more like a resistive one

LG Optimus One P500 budget Android smartphone
Time was when smartphones were always high-end handsets. But as economies of scale help bring prices down, Android's open option has made it appealing to a wide variety of manufacturers and it's adding smartphone goodies to some very modestly priced handsets.

LG Optimus One P500 review
A budget smartphone that offers some great features, the LG Optimus One P500 is well worth a second look. Unlike some other cheap handsets, it runs Android 2.2 Froyo rather than 2.1 Eclair.
