LG Optimus T Specs

I actually bought this phone used on eBay and unlocked it to work on AT&T's GoPhone service (which works best for me in my areas). I chose this over AT&T's own Thrive which lacks Swype (which I enjoy using). Having been a long-time user of "dumbphones" I enjoyed the call quality of the Optimus T.

Sure there are probably multitudes of better smartphones out there that'll get you more bang for your buck ... but I was satisfied with this phone based on price and what I needed it to do. The battery life and camera quality on this phone are about average with similar priced androids and the user interface speed is fairly good ... now if only these would come sans bloatware I think we'd be fine.

If you're looking for a good android but don't wanna spend too much give this one a try.

This is my first android and is not going that HOT with me... I had problems and still have problems with this phone i would like to change "BUT NOOO" Tmobile dont let me! Uhhhhhhhhhh i want to end the contract!!!!

I purchased this phone for full sticker price ($240) 1 week after its release and now that it's selling for ~$150, if I dropped it in the toilet I'd buy another one.
All issues I had with the phone were T-Mobiles fault. They made a mess of ROM included. If I didn't know about the Optimus One roms available I'd likely be an unhappy customer. Then again all American carriers take the liberty of crapping on Android phones with their demoware and backdoors... err "update channels??"

In the end this is the best bang for the buck even today.

Note - my ratings are relative to an Android device in this price range. It's rated high not because I think it's as good as a Tegra dual core device but because you simply can't get better for the price
