The Amazing LG Optimus One Provides Wi-Fi Internet Access
|
The LG Optimus One is essentially an entry-level Android device that is relying more than ever on well thought-through software to appeal to possible customers. The word entry level may conjour up the wrong image, and in reality it boasts a spec list that many of its rival devices would be proud of.
It has a 600 MHz Qualcomm processor, which propels a 3.2 inch capacitive screen through 512 MB of RAM, and lets you take pictures through a 3.1 MP autofocus camera. The camera does a wonderful job of taking still images. They are of surprisingly high quality, as 3.1 megapixels may not sound much on paper, but the results will be a pleasant surprise to many. As an added bonus, the camera can also shoot video footage as an alternative to still images.
Social networking is not overlooked, as this is a major consideration for most people when choosing a new smartphone. The LG Optimus One provides apps for FaceBook and Twitter. It has three physical buttons, a nicely fitting battery compartment cover. Some smartphone connoisseurs may find the construction basic, but it does the job it was intended to do, and for the price of this phone, it is surprisingly durable and feels well constructed in your hand.
The phone functions well. Calls sound fine, with little to no interference on either party.
The software is Froyo (2.2.1), so it does have all that other Froyo phones have: the upgraded Sense UI, Leap etc. LG threw in some nice widgets and added DivX support, and some tweaks to the UI. There is no Flash support, but there is Thinkfree Office. Of course, 3G and Wi-Fi connections are on hand to grant users a speedy and reliable internet connection, and caters for several messaging formats including SMS, MMS, Email, push Email and IM.
Whilst the processor within the LG Optimus One is only a 600 MHz unit, it does perform well. It provides decent speeds of the user interface, with a nice, fluid movement when scrolling through menus or websites.
All in all, LG’s Optimus One offers a fantastic introduction to the Android OS, and provides some very nice hardware. If you are a smartphone newbie, or on a limited budget you cannot go far wrong with this unit. The functionality of Froyo is made available to the masses with the LG Optimus One, and the device is ideally placed to win over many new converts to the operating system, who may have previously been loyal to other smartphone brands.
