By Charles Black


When individuals think of a smart phone, the last producer they think of is LG; still, LG is slowly becoming a competitor.

Most Android phones come with numerous high end specifications, but the LG's version does not. However, that has not stopped the phone from gaining a lot of attention from the press. This LG phone instead tries to pull in with a reasonable price tag without trimming too much on performance and features so users can still enjoy the Android experience and its growing marketplace of mobile apps.

Features

For the comprehensive LG Optimus One P500 Android Review. The LG Optimus One P500 Android handset is superb in the sense that it looks a lot like the other better smart phones that are powered by Android. The 3.2-inch capacitive touchscreen display is definitely not the most huge but that makes the LG Optimus One P500 Android handset more portable than its larger Android peers. The phone and severala lot of the apps are really faster as a result of the multi touch feature. Not a lot of phones in this price range feature multi touch functions. The 320 by 480 resolution is great for regular DVD quality movies to be played back and fortunately DivX and XivD support is offered out of the box. The 170 MB of internal memory may appear like a restriction but the LG Optimus One P500 Android handset has a microSD card slot that supports up to 32 GB of RAM. To add to the phone's value, a 2 GB microSD card is already included. Along with the headphone jack and the expandable memory, this phone is the perfect MP3 player.

And a smart phone won't be a smart phone if it doesn't come with the standard Bluetooth and WIFI features, and obviously LG has put these features to its newest smart phone. Morever, the built-in GPS is a feature of the LG Optimus One P500 Android handset that lots of folks love. This phone has QWERTY keyboard and the accelerometer, which makes changing the views on this phone simple. And if all those features were not sufficient, this LG Android phone also features the 3G compatible network. Moreover, you will never have to struggle again trying to hear things since the actual speaker is very good quality.

Shortcomings

The disadvantages of this Android phone from LG are somewhat unique but nothing too alarming.

Working on documents can slow down the LG Optimus One P500 Android handset due to the processor; still, everything else is right up to speed.
