      The problem with that is that you need a massive amount of R and D.
      Whereas other companies can release devices and problem-solve the stuff the users find for the next device, alongside doing their own R and D. So a feedback loop of improvement. Where as LG would be in a bubble.

Well there are many phone companies that have non-removal batteries so that isn't an outdated feature when you think of phones such as Oppo Reno and Samsung, iphone they have non removal batteries it the innovation and software is what the consumers like about Oppo Reno or Samsung and IPhone so if lg works on there software then they might have an chance so could by the mobile comany and change so things around so that LG can be successful again.

The Optimus G felt incredibly premium and ahead of its time with the glass back and it had a really good IPS LCD screen. The G2 wasn’t as premium feeling, but they packed a 5.5in screen with thin bezels which kept the phone small. LG fell off because they started chasing gimmicks and every flagship came with some fatal defect that destroyed the phone in less than a year.

But unfortunately, the phone has reached its limits and I need to let it go. I just pull a trigger and bought V40, can't wait to test it.

    I love innovation, from back in the day I have been jumping from brand to brand, Motorola, Nokia, Blackberry, HTC, Sony, Huawei, Samsung, Apple and LG. For some reason LG was the device that kept me coming back. I absolutely loved my LG devices and the fact that they always had something new to offer. Now that LG is out of our market I find myself in a place where I look at phone options and feel like there is this empty space that I can't help but feel like LG would have filled. Yes they might not be the best according to all the reviews and and, but an amazing device if you are looking for a great all rounder!

    I bought a LG- G VISTA 880 in 2016 on sale for $200 US. I don't know what the launching price was but I love it , still watch video's on it every day and picture is incredibly great, but that's all I use it for mainly, sound is great has stereo speakers and really kicks hard. Only 8 GB storage has a Snapdragon 400 and I wish so badly they would get back into the phone business.. I'm using a Galaxy A 14 now as my calling and app device soon to be replaced by the A 54 when I upgrade this winter. Just cannot stand not having stereo speakers on the A 14 so I'll go on using the LG as backup for video and music..Thank you for sharing this great video with us all, great jobπŸ‘πŸ‘

    Just bought a used LG Velvet. It was a toss-up between this or an Oppo Find x3 lite for the same price. The Oppo is a year newer, and in most areas it seems better on paper, but I went with my heart (a stupid thing to say about a mass-produced consumer item, I know). The Velvet seemed more solid, less plastic. And I was really happy with my LG G5 - i went through two of them. For me they were very comfortable to use - very light, and the fingerprint sensor on the back was well placed and worked every time. I could just whip it out of my pocket and it unlock it before it was even in front of my face. The keyboard learning knew exactly where I was trying to put my fat sausage fingers. The camera didn't have a billion megapixels - but it took great photos that were very detailed and rich. The main selling point was the removable battery though - instead of carrying around powerbanks and cables - just have a spare battery in your pocket. And when the batteries started to give up the ghost, just get a new one for like, $15. You could keep a G5 going theoretically forever. Or until the processor starts to fry your screen at least. Despite all of these positives - I was still the only person I knew that owned an LG phone. LG did a great job marketing to my use-case scenario, but maybe their problem is that I'm the only sane person in a sea of idiots.
    And so... that's my story on why I bought an LG Velvet.

    5:45 I experienced the same thing when researching Motorola phones.
    Usually, a higher number was better, and the Moto G87 was the best out of their budget lineup (although I can get a Google Pixel 7 for the same price and it's a better phone), but on a couple, the phone with the higher number had a MediaTek chipset whilst the phone with the lower number had a Snapdragon chipset. Also, whilst higher number was usually better and was always more expensive, it was difficult to guage, and the specific numbers were arbitrary.

    as a non-tech guy -- strictly speaking as a consumer -- the reason why i didn't buy a modern LG phone (i've had two in the past... like, a decade ago) is because you simply can't buy them anywhere.
    they're not in stores. there are no ads. there are no pamphlets. there are no posts on facebooks. there are no physical stores.
    in other words... no one (at least, here) knows that they exist.

    I love my dual screen v60. It's more practical than most people will realize. Most phones have only one screen, so few people have had hands on experience. It saddens me that I will not be able to replace my phone when it dies.

      This. And the distribution of of it is quite poor too. My G6 got updated to Android 8.0 after nearly 3 years. And as if that's not bad enough, i found out that for my region that's the final upgrade, while others got android 9.0. And since most phone nowadays had wide angle cam, this might be my last LG.

      @@lick3227 Honestly with my experience with LG phones, gaming wasn't that well if you have a whole lot of games. It does heat up with games when it reaches high cpu. The battery depends on the apps you have and how much time you use it. If you don't use it that much and have little apps, the battery will last much more. My dad's LG phone battery lasts up to 2 days because he doesn't really use it. Both my parents and I use LG phones and they are pretty good. We have used LG phones for years, the old generation of LG phones that we own still work great. I currently have the LG Stylo 4 and it's still running well.

    Hello, I am a Korean who worked in the LG Mobile division. LG smartphones were in the red in the 24th quarter, 5billion $ deficit. It seems that we will not be making flagship smartphones now, and we plan to make only low-cost mobile phones through the ODM method.
    There are many reasons for failure , the biggest reason is that you have to make a phone that the senior executives want, not the phone that the public wants. They set final names ,prices and add weird features. They led postponed the development of a rollable phone than we could sell 2million LG Wings . LG innovating at the time of feature phones.
