I've had the Optimus One for over a year now.. I'm still running Froyo on the device. It's a great budget phone for 10k. Screen is great, touch is very smooth. Battery lasts a little more than a day but thats how all smartphones are. Looks aren't too great, basic apps run smoothly.

"LG P500 or Optimus One Review - After 1yr+ usage."

After a whole lot of research on android phones, I finally decided to go for the Optimus One last May (May 2011). Back then, there was not much to choose from in the $200 budget. So this phone seemed to me as the best bet back then, and I'm very satisfied with it even now!
Pros:
  • 3G
  • good battery
  • vibrant screen
  • good camera
  • compatibility
Cons:
  • Lack of a front facing camera
  • lack of flash

The better smartphone for this price

I enjoyed my experience with the LG Optimus One. It may not offer the beefiest spec sheet or even the highest-resolution screen, but for the price it provides a weighty build and a decent user experience.

Overall, good budget smartphone for the price, just beware if you want to play games, this phone has a sluggish processor and little internal memory.
Pros:
  • Unique design: physical keys mean less accidental "go homes"
  • soft touch finish on back
  • metal under battery cover
  • Features: 3.2 inch touch screen is bright and colourful
  • speakers were at the least
  • audible
  • camera takes good pics for the price
  • Android 2.3 update brings more colour to the lack
Cons:
  • Sluggish processor
  • no Flash
  • no HD vidoe recording
  • wish battery life was a bit longer
  • no Camera Flash
  • not upgradeale to 4.0 or 4.1
  • very little internal memory

Good first mobile. If you want a simple android handset that fits in your pocket is this good. Are you looking for good camera or big screen so do not choose this. I enjoyed it but me during the time I owned it.
