Also note that this LG Optimus Net is a successor to the previously released and hugely popular LG Optimus One. Although it has similar features as compared to the older LG Optimus One it is a good phone worth buying and has higher processing capabilities.

The new phone from LG works on quad band GSM network and comes enabled with 3G technology as well. The phone has a 3.2 MP TFT capacitive touchscreen with 320×480 pixels resolution and displays images with 256 k colors. Talking about the processor, LG Optimus Net has an 800 MHz processor and Qualcomm MSM 7227 T chipset while the older LG Optimus One had a 600 MHz processor. The main difference between the two phones comes here in processing speed.

The older LG Optimus One had 3G network capability that was capable of data transfer with speeds up to 7.2 mbps but LG Optimus Net will have data transfer of up to 3.6 mbps only. The other difference here is the upgrade from Bluetooth version 2.1 in LG Optimus One to Bluetooth version 3.0 in the new LG Optimus Net. The phone has the same 1500 mAh battery and will provide the same talk time of 7.5 hours.

LG Optimus One had a 3.15 camera and surprisingly LG Optimus Net also has the same camera but is touted to have better clarity in images and better image viewing features as it has an all new operating system.
