Sale Vote: LG Optimus One vs. Nokia C6

So okay, it’s obvious that Nokia’s sale of the Nokia C6 is in direct competition with the LG Optimus One we reported earlier. Same date, same time, same locations and even almost same price.


So, why don’t we put it to a vote? Who’s lining up for which sale this Saturday? Is it the LG sale or is it the Nokia sale? Just leave a comment below to be counted.

But if you’re still undecided, here’s a run-down of their features.

If you’re asking for my opinion, go grab both units if you have the money. Then, you can sell the other one if you don’t like it — at a profit too! *heh*

  1. There’s absolutely no contest.

    Symbian and Nokia are dying and it would take a miracle to turn things around.


  2. OPTI ONE!!! Basically it’s because of ANDROID!


  3. if LG comes with the standard package of 2 batteries plus a stand-alone battery charger, then i’m lining up for LG!


  4. I’ll go for LG OPTIMUS ONE!!! Hindi na ko makapaghintay sana Nov. 13 na.


  5. LG. I’m kind of wondering why Nokia still chooses to have a Symbian OS when everybody else is going for app-loaded operating systems. =|


  6. Great advise, Abe. Get both and sell the other one. But be sure to be on time at the same place. Good thing is that Nokia’s sale duration is longer than LG’s – pretty good lead time yun para lumipat sa isa pang shop. Best thing to do is to ask someone to line up for you at the other shop. Lol!

    As for me, I’d pick the Nokia C6.


  7. No doubt. LG Optimus One! Good luck to all of us on Saturday!


  8. LG Optimus One! what is with the resistive of nokia c6? such a failure!


  9. Nokia might be useful for a car-mounted Ovi Maps device as opposed to a dedicated device, but for overall I’ll go with LG’s Android.


  10. Ohh LG Optimus one is 5 Peso More Expensive.. lol Go nokia c6.. nahh i think i still get the android phone


  11. Nokia N6 ako because of the slide out qwerty keypad. kasi kung touchscreen, by wear and tear, lulubog ang touchscreen or magkakaroon ng dent


  12. WALA. Di kami abot ng sale na yan. Hirap ng taga-probinsya. :( Pero kung pipili ako, LG.


  13. Nice strategy by Nokia. But LG has the advantage since it is releasing a new phone than Nokia C6.


  14. I’ll go for LG… kahit wala akong pera..hahahah!!


  15. Cmon Android 2.2 froyo? at 6495.. i choose LG.


  16. Cmon Android 2.2 froyo? at 6495.. of course i’ll choose LG.


  17. LG Optimus One P500
    Android 2.2 Froyo powered phone.


  18. Im here right now sa Bacolod Negros Occidental….
    Di aabot yung sales nyan dito…but LG ako mas ok kasi android..


  19. On a developer’s perspective, I’ll go for Android. Symbian still rules so I’ll buy both. See guys on Saturday!


  20. what can i say.. LG is on the very way lead.. LG is better because of Android.. wag lang sana lag running apps =D


  21. It’s a good thing Nokia came up with something to compete with the price drop promotion, but for someone so familiar and bored with Symbian I think I want something fresh and new, and that’s Android! LG Optimus One for me…


  22. disregard the gsmarena post.. err posting sori


  23. froyo is the reason plus lots of applications like kik messenger OPTIMUS ONE


  24. LG does have the advantage here. But we have to give credit to Nokia. It’ll take a bit more time for that unit to drop its price to that level. Hehe.

    Anyhow, para sa mga hindi papalarin sa LG sale (but I do hope palarin lahat), you have the option to buy the C6. :)


  25. Where is the pole? Hehe! Siyempre Optimus Prime tayo. Ume-epal lang ang Nokia kase ayaw nilang magpatalo kahit obvious naman sa screen technology at OS pa lang, olats na sila. Hehehe!


  26. I’ll go for LG Optimus One. Hopefully, I’ll get two on Saturday.


  27. I’m going for LG! Great backup phone to partner with my Samsung Wave S8500 :)


  28. Cheap ass bitches, I dare you to buy it when its not on sale, Iphone 4 rules!!! CHEAPIPOS!!
