LG Optimus One review
LG's been putting out touchscreen phones for a long time, but has yet to pull off a proper success in the amazingly competitive Android scene. Its Optimus GT540 was a poor attempt at making a stylish and original phone, and ultimately ruined by a terrible resistive touchscreen.

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

The LG Optimus One P500 smart phone packs plenty of punch, offering all the joys of Android 2.2 at a rock-bottom price. We just wish LG's tweaks to Android didn't look so clumsy.

- Runs the latest version of Android
- 2.2
- Responsive capacitive touchscreen
- Cheap
- Packed with smart-phone features
Cons:
- Low-resolution screen
- Ugly LG software icons
- Looks boring
- No Flash support

Editor's Review of the Optimus One
For a mid-range smartphone, the LG Optimus One rocks features that makes it worthy of competiting against all the big names. It's good looking, easy to use and endlessly entertaining, so if you're an Android newbie, this could be your perfect handset!

LG has been pumping in more attention (and cash) into its mobile lineup recently, particularly into its Android smartphones. Before the LG Optimus One descended, we had the first Optimus handset, reviewed here .
