The Optimus One with Google is a family of entry-level, touch-screen smartphones manufactured by LG Electronics, Inc. Initially released running the Android 2.2 Froyo software stack, LG plans to release software to upgrade the many variants to Android 2.3 Gingerbread. Although the basic physical form factor of each variant is the same, the variants have differences in hard button shape and layout, the form of the metal side bezel and the user interfaces added by LG or various carriers. Versions of the Optimus One exist that operate on various frequency bands and either GSM or CDMA-based network protocols.

Since sales first began in mid-November 2010, LG has released seven variants, with at least one more on the way. The Optimus One line is the first LG smartphone line to sell more than 1 million units. As of December 10, 2010 more than 2 million units have been sold worldwide, with 1.3 million units sold in North America, 450,000 units sold in South Korea, 200,000 units sold in Europe and 50,000 units sold in Asia and the CIS.

The internal name of the Optimus One during product development was "Thunder".

LG Optimus One P500

The Optimus One P500 was the first version offered for sale, with sales beginning in South Korea in mid-November 2010.[1] This GSM version of the phone is sold by wireless communications service providers in Asia, Europe and Canada. The Optimus One P500 has a 3 megapixel camera.[7]

As of December 10, 2010 more than 700,000 of this model have been sold with 450,000 sold in South Korea, 200,000 sold in Europe and 50,000 sold in Asia and the CIS. LG expects the number of Optimus One units sold to increase dramatically as sales gain strength in Europe, Asia and Latin America.[1]

In Turkey, a matte black variant of the Optimus One is sold as the P503 Optimus One.[8]

U.S. Variants

Wireless communications service providers in North America have sold more than 1.3 million Optimus One smartphones as of December 10, 2010.[1]

LG Optimus C - LW690 - Cricket

Cricket Wireless launched the LG LW690 Optimus C on March 17, 2011. The Optimus C features Cricket's Muve Music service.(Does not feature in AWS markets)

LG Optimus M - MS690 - MetroPCS

MetroPCS launched the LG MS690 Optimus M in silver on November 24, 2010.[9] Unlike other CDMA variants of the Optimus One which support the EV-DO Rev. A standard, the Optmus M supports only the slower EV-DO Rel. 0 standard. In addition to supporting 800 MHz cellular and 1900 MHz PCS radio frequency bands, the Optimus M also supports the 1700/2011 MHz AWS frequency bands.[10]

LG Optimus S - LS670 - Sprint

Sprint released the LG LS670 Optimus S version in charcoal gray and purple on October 31, 2010 with an initial two-year contract price of US$149.99.[3] The Optimus S features the Sprint ID UI and CDMA network connectivity.

Similar in physical form to the P500, U and V variants, this device has four distinct hard keys and a metal accent that covers the top of the device and one-third of each side. The 3.5mm TRS connector, the power button and the volume buttons are all incorporated into the metal band. Like the U and V variants, this device has two hard keys on the right side of the phone that are not on other variants. One button activates the voice dialer and another activates the camera. The "Menu" and "Home" buttons on the S are transposed as compared to all other variants of the Optimus One.

T-Mobile USA released the LG P509 Optimus T in black, titanium and burgundy on November 3, 2010 with an initial non-contract price of US$239.99 or a two-year contract price of US$79.99.[11]

Of all the variants of the Optimus One released worldwide, the Optimus V is the closest to the "stock" version of Android 2.2, having no menu "skin" and a few applications added by Virgin Mobile.

Similar in physical form to the P500, S and U variants, this device has four distinct hard keys and a metallic accent that covers the top of the device and one-third of each side. The 3.5mm TRS connector, the power button and the volume buttons are all incorporated into the metallic band. Like the S and U variants, this device has two hard keys on the right side of the phone that are not on other variants. One button activates the voice dialer and another activates the camera.

The controls for mobile hotspot functionality are missing from the phone's settings pages. However, mobile hot spot functionality is present in the device and can be enabled by using certain applications available in the Android Market.

LG Phoenix - P505 and LG Thrive - P506 - AT&T Mobility

AT&T Mobility marketed two versions of the Optimus beginning April 17, 2011. The LG P506 Thrive will be available in silver for $179.99 to pre-paid GoPhone customers. The LG P505 Phoenix will be available in dark blue for $49.00 to post-paid customers signing a two-year contract. The LG Phoenix enables users to tether to a device via USB or to act as a wireless hot spot, but the LG Thrive lacks those features.[16]
