The LG Optimus One sports a 600MHz processor and a 3.2 inch HVGA touchscreen, as well as a 1500mAH battery.
LG Optimus One is reportedly confirmed to get Android 2.3 Gingerbread, The device is one of the first smartphones to offer Android 2.2 Froyo and finally getting Android 2.3 Gingerbread. LG was even more confident at the end of 2010 about the device since they mentioned that it would be upgradeable to Android 2.3 Gingerbread some time down the road.
Do anyone think that Android 2.3 Gingerbread update could save LG Optimus One? LG phones sucks as always.
This phone has very poor marketing in Europe... there will be no success for this device here...

I never really took LG serious, I need to see more of these and maybe it will change my views, I think lg phone I think cheap boxy phone or bad touchscreen and some form of a long term contract.
