Default [Q] Will this Otterbox Case work with the LG P500?

Hi,

http://www.otterbox.com/LG-Optimus-C...efault,pd.html

I've already searched around the internet alot and found different awnsers on the Question, wether this Otterbox Case will fit the LG P500. Some people said it would fit perfectly (here on XDA) others say it doesn't work at all. So what is true now, does andybody have this case and the LG P500 and could say wether they fit or not?

Thanks a lot in advance

It probably will fit, but it will look pretty bad and might not have the correct cut outs due to it was made for a different phone.

LG Optimus S (Sprint)
LG Optimus U (U.S. Cellular)
LG Optimus V (Virgin Mobile)
NOT compatible with the LG Optimus M (MetroPCS)
NOT compatible with the LG Optimus T (T-Mobile)

From my knowledge the p500 is the same as the T, so I would say probably not. Cut outs would most likely be off. Looks really nice though!

I took a chance and bought that one.

Fits good.

front screen, front buttons, headphone jack and power button line up.

The volume keys on the side are a little off, but they do work just a little harder to hit the down button.

Camera lines up perfectly too

I scored mine off ebay cheap so I'm loving it

Hey, sorry I read your awnser a little bit late. So you bought the case and are using it with a LG Optimus One / LG Optimus T?! I mean if the side buttons would be the only thing which is off, that would be fine with me ...

Thanks in advance

Have had this setup for my Optimus V for close to a year, and have been very pleased. High quality, great fit, and attractive appearance. Had a cheap case off of ebay prior to the Otterbox, and it was not bad for the price, but the Otterbox provides more protection and is better designed.
