Yep, Samsung as a brand is far better than LG. You are correct in having apprehensions about LG.
No they aren't. Analyzing the pluses and minuses, they even out.
Mid Range Android Phones...the best phones to look forward to

I guessed it requires the data cable for transfer, and theres a reason I asked about the transfer, the Motorola Quench does not come with a data cable. The box contains nothing other than the battery, phone, charger and earphones. No sd card, and no data cable. Not that I was considering buying this phone anyways, but people who are considering this phone should know this.
There maybe other methods also for transfer, are they?
Didn't you tell me that the video playback is not as good as that of G3?
LG Optimus One vs Samsung Galaxy Apollo
Take a look at above link.
Just include multitouch for Optimus One and exclude bluetooth 3 for Galaxy Apollo
I'll check the link. Thanks.
I read the other thread, G3 vs Optimus One. Didn't find the time to read the entire thread..but I think you posted there too. Do you have the optimus one phone?
Really? then other than the brand factor, optimus one is not a bad choice.
I haven't made my choice yet, but at one point I had. That was last month, and I actually went to the store to buy the G3 phone, guess what? it was sold out. There was a display piece, which I didn't want to buy. but I got to compare that with the HTC wildfire which was also on display. The HTC looked a lot more better, and also the UI was wayy better than the samsung phone. Then again, HTC is known to have the best skin.

Updates to both of these are coming within a month which will bring S^3 on par with Android in terms of browser & text input. In case you want something better, you can always switch to Opera Mobile 10 for browser & Baidu Input for Split screen text input & portrait QWERTY.
Practically, do u need it ever?
This is debatable. Have a look at Ovi store to find all the apps U need. Let me know if u really miss an app for your needs on Symbian
I thought the Optimus One was already lauched, is it?
Galaxy 3 was launched recently, isn't it too quick to be taking up another similar phone? Even if the Optimus phone is better than Galaxy, it can't be so much better that you dump your 2 month phone to buy that.
Or is there another reason for buying the Optimus One..
*I am not saying one is better than the other, honestly I don't know..

G3 comes with data cable. so i feel O1 too should, if LG ppls not trying save 100 bucks (max) by not giving the cable. also a 2Gb card is common nowadays when 8Gb cards are bundled with most sub 20k mobiles.
someone without PC will prefer use a cafe or office PC to edit.you got the point. Android market app have more apps than Ovi store but any particular mobile doesn't need so many apps, nor a mobile support even half.
Yup. Optimus one is already launched but sadly its not avaialable here in my city
.Dealer has confirmed 28th as the date of arrival of optimus one in store...
The reason(s) i m considering to buy optimus one are- nice look, 340*480 screen resolution, physical softkeys, froyo, 3G 7.2Mbps.
First three points are more important to me though...
Heyy
I just watched an Optimus One unboxing video on youtube. Guess what?!?
That phone is not sealed. The box that contains the phone and its accessories is not sealed.
It may sound silly, but I am very particular about packaging. If I don't get a sealed pacakaging, I am not going to buy that phone even if its the best in the world.
Why can't LG package their product properly? Its only seal..why cant they do that.
PS: I don't think their is a SD Card either. Well I didn't watch through the end of the videos to see everything the box contains..the fact that it was not sealed was enough for be decide against that phone.

^^ they may have opened that package before to confirm everything was ok & working. quality testing is really strict. & i sure those guys opened the packaging once.
abt accessories, it differs from country to country so can't say if you'll get a data cable also.

Normally in unboxing videos, they open packaging in front of the camera.
Yeah, when I saw the box, even I thought that maybe they opened it before and are now unboxing again for camera. But I checked few more videos, and in all videos the box was not sealed. Infact, in some videos the person reviewing was not sure how to open, and then they figured how to and opened it, so I think its not a sealed box.
Anyways, we will know how the packaging is after NainO buys it.

^^ thats wary. no seal on a mobile package.
means anyone can tamper with the accessories, not to mention can change the battery itself. well i'll go through 2-3 videos myself. thanks for informing.

Hows Dell XCD 28 ? Any reviews please
Did you check?
I know, how can anyone buy a phone thats not sealed. I thought I am being silly, nice to know you also agree with me. Even if not tampered, the whole feel of new phone is lost, anyone opens the box checks the phone puts it back..
the buyer is not the first one to have their hands on the phone.
NainO, if you really want this phone you don't have to wait until 28th. You can buy it online. Now ofcource, even if you place an order now..you wont recieve untill monday 29th. You might as well go to the store check the phone and then buy. And its better you go to the store, you can see the phone and then decide if you really want it. btw, 28th is sunday, I don't think a phone will be launched on sunday, you will probably have to go on monday.
What if the packaging is not sealed, will you buy it? Do you really want to buy this phone?
I am from Bangalore, I don't know if its launched here. Which city are you in?

not yet but will watch a couple of video reviews in youtube before logging off.
not just loosing the feeling of buying a new mobile, but a strange kind of fear breaches you. and frankly nobody likes to buy a electronic with a tampered/seal-less packaging. specially when paying ~13k for it. anyway will try give a visit to a nearby mobile store this week & confirm if there is seal or not (provided they know what LG O1 is).

me2 same. specially in case of mobiles. PC parts are something else. they can't be checked at the place of purchase but mobile phones, even if costing a couple hundreds more, local purchase is better.
@me1, please look at the mobile box in the pic i posted below. you can clearly see it has a seal on thats been torn. which means that there will be seal on the retail package.
