LG Optimus One sales top 2 million units. AT&T will launch the smartphone, too (LG Optimus A?)
By Florin on 10 Dec 10LG has just announced that it sold over 2 million Optimus One Android smartphones worldwide – less than one month after announcing it shipped 1 million units around the globe.
1.3 million handsets have been sold in the US – where the Optimus One has been picked up by most major carriers and renamed to Optimus S, Optimus T, LG Vortex, Optimus M and Optimus U.
Starting early next year, AT&T will have its own Optimus One, too – and it may call it LG Optimus A. Customers should expect it to cost less than $50 on contract.
I’m sure LG’s chiefs are smiling right now seeing how popular the Optimus One is – just like the lovely Kelly Brook is smiling (ok, maybe not that nice):
The Optimus One range currently runs Android 2.2 Froyo and it will be updated to Android 2.3 Gingerbread at some point.
LG expects to sell 10 million Optimus Ones in total – and it will probably do it.
