If you don't forget the price you paid for this phone, there is nothing better available in the market in this price range. Have been using it for 10 days now and I couldn't find any issue at all. Got it for 12999 (and a Reebok show of MRP 2999 free with it at Total Mall)...!!
Others have already reviewed the features and since I'm not very tech savvy, I could only find everything very exciting about this phone. This is my first smartphone and didn't want to spend a lot of money on phone since their useful life is never beyond 3 years...! battery dies after that and you get bored. My brother owns an iphone and he had strongly advised me against buying LG....but after using this one for some time, he doesn't comment much on the quality...and that says it all.

Hey Carloz,
We faced the same problem. I upgrade the firmware of my phone via LG wbsite. Finally my phone was hung & I couldn't even reboot & removing the battery seems to be dead end!! I send to the LG service centre & they also unable to fix it. Finally they replaced a whole new board into my phone. But the problem is, the battery took minimum 4 hours to fully charge. During idle/screen lock mode, screen suddenly activated & I need to press screen lock button to deactivate it. What a pity !!!

Kris, 08 Jan 2011guys, any idea how to transfer Nokia contacts to LG optimus one?If the contacts are on your sim card, there should be no problem.
OR, you can try importing them into yahoo mail on the Nokia. Then use yahoo mail to retrieve them on the LG. Cannot guarantee it will work!

I have had the Optimus One for a month.Nice phone but some problems need to be resolved.(1)Occasionally with incoming calls an excuse message screen appears on the screen before you can take the call so in fact you loose the call as it goes to voicemail. There are no switches to cancel option in the menu hence you are stuck with that function. Sometimes when you end a call the call can't be ended and if you go to the notification bar to try to cancel it from that mode a blank screen appears and then oops reboot required. Ask support and they can't help. It's not a one off problem with my phone because my wife has the same problem. Tried to get it fixed whilst on warranty and was told to try the return key function. That did not work. Then after one month I thought redemption had come when the LG suite on my computer blinked telling me there was finally a phone upgrade. I tried to do the upgrade and it reached 5% of the install when it bricked my phone. I rang customer support they had no knowledge of this new upgrade till they looked at their own site to confirm this. They ran a test whilst I waited on line and then asked me to mail it out for repairs. This is a good phone but software is a bit buggy hope they can resolve this cause I'm on a two year plan.

Good Design (Doesn't look Cheap), Good OS Froyo (Upgradeable to Gingerbread), Lots of lots of apk, Good Price, Customizable UI, Love it. Proud of It, Never leave home without it, Never took a glance at my old Nokia 5800XM Again (It's so ugly). Waiting for my new Iphone4. Until now Optimus One is my favorite.
