Today, LG brings their flagship smartphone, the Optimus One, to Virgin Mobile as a prepaid device called the Optimus V. The Optimus V brings most of the features the average consumer would want in a smartphone, without the contract or hefty price tag. You get a decent Android phone without a contract for $150.
Features of the LG Optimus V include Android 2.2 Froyo, 600MHz processor, 3.2″ HVGA display (320×480 resolution), 3MP camera, 2GB of internal storage and a microSDHC memory card slot. It run’s on the carrier’s 3G network, but also supports Wi-Fi connections.
As we reported last year, LG is aiming for a different set of customers than the iPhone 4 or HTC Evo. They’re aiming to hit more average, less techy folks who want something powerful but simple. It’s a great deal for the price. It’s pre-paid, it’s Android (Virgin Mobile’s first), and it’s a good phone for the price.
Check out the unboxing below to see the Optimus in action.
