LG Optimus One Review

Online, January 20, 2012 (Newswire.com) - The LG Optimus One is being released as a starter smart phone. With so many super phones being released, it's nice to have options if you're looking for something that is small and compact yet can still handle day-to-day smart phone functions without being overloaded with features. The Optimus One measures 4.47 by 2.32 by 0.52 and weighs 4.55 ounces, which is about average for an entry level smart phone. The design on the phone is classy, with physical buttons along the bottom for home, back, search and menu and a soft touch coating along the back of the phone. The home and back buttons are set apart from the other two buttons with a gray background, a nice little feature. The screen is 3.2 inches with 320x480 pixel resolution, which is also average for this screen size. The screen supports 262,144 colors which results in fairly good graphics, text and viewing angles.

The Optimus One runs on a Qualcomm MSM7227 600MHz ARM 11 processor and Adreno 200 graphic processor, making the response time fair. It's definitely good enough for web browsing, downloading, running apps, music and movies. The Optimus One also has Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, FM Radio, 3 megapixel camera with video capture, GPS, multimedia player and email capabilities. It runs Android Froyo 2.2 without any added user interface so it's completely customizable. The Voice Search function allows you to use the phone hands free, accessing the many functions with ease. It also has all of the Google Services and full access to the Android Market.

We recommend protecting your LG Optimus One while it's not in use to reduce the chances of scratching the screen or damaging the body. A classy leather case is a great option, as it provides full protection to your phone as well as fitting into any situation. The LG Optimus One P500 Naztech Extra Large Executive Class cases deliver the perfect combination of elegance and durability. The Naztech's superior design entertains a distinct air of professionalism and style and its imported high-quality material will protect the longevity of your LG Optimus One P500 mobile device. This LG Optimus One P500 Extra Large Executive case features flexible elastic sides that can easily be adjusted for optimal convenience and its rotating clip is ideal for securing it in place. Executive in appearance and sturdy in composition, this gift from Naztech seeks excellence in every way.

We recommend having a reliable back-up charger and an external battery pack is perfect, as you can carry it with you, it holds a charge for an extended amount of time and can be pulled out absolutely anywhere to charge most electronic devices. Finally, a portable rechargeable LG Optimus One P500 charger that has the ability to charge 2 devices at the same time without being plugged into an outlet. The Incipio® offGRID™ 2 Port Battery Pack allows users to power and charge their device from most wall outlets. Once the Battery Pack is charged, the user has the ability to charge their LG Optimus One P500 devices while "off the grid". The offGRID™ has 2 standard Type A USB ports and has flat-blade folding non-polarized wall prongs. Charging status is identified by a LED charging indicator. offGRID™ is compact with foldable prongs, making the 2 Port Battery Pack a convenient LG Optimus One P500 travel accessory.
