The saddest thing about this whole thing is, LG was the only OEM that took mobile audio seriously. RIP LG.

I love the LG V series. They were all such cool phones for business and fun. They held a special place in my heart and they will truly be missed.

That mini screen is kinda like dynamic island lol.

When companies killed headphone jack, LG launched V20 which had a quad dac, removable battery and even an IR blaster which can be used as a universal remote. No reviewers stressed these super features. LG will be surely missed!

It was really nice to have a stylus phone without having to drop a mortgage payment on it (Samsung). I also liked how the software ran. It made sense to me. Not all manufacturers do (Motorola). But as stated, they have many, many other divisions to concentrate on. Probably a very good business decision.

I was about to comment that youtubers are part responsible, good thing you brought it up yourself, I’ve been saying it over and over, there have been some extremely underrated amazing smartphones from these brands which didn’t get the coverage that they deserved, the volume buttons on the back with power was very satisfying to use, the side mounted fingerprint on sony phones(specifically XZ1) or the bezels of G2, number of times youtuber’s pushed these manufacturers to adapt and change to smth that wasn’t necessary for instance the LG V10 is one of the most toughest phone I’ve ever used(aside from bootloop issue) the plastic rubberised back of that phone with that stainless steel frame covered with chromium oxide for self healing bit made it super grippy and sturdy, I’d even use a phone today with that design upgraded chip and smaller bezels, yet LG was forced to moved to glass sandwich design because every single youtuber couldn’t just handle plastic, where on other hand samsung got away for several years using their glossy plastic fingerprint sensors which faded to black over time giving a device hideous look, tech reviewers should start giving these brands credit for innovations and stop being tough on struggling brands because in the end of the day competition is good for end user, look at intel for example they had been selling similar performing processors for years with slight boost from 2nd gen till 7th until Amd Ryzen came and they started to up their game, yes Smartphone manufacturers do still face pressure coz their are lots of them, but old dogs like HTC,LG,Sony,Motorola(wouldn’t add Nokia despite of being old Nokia’s fan HMD is barely even trying) should have got the attention they deserved I remember the gingerbread days where it was soo fun to jump from one phone to another, now a days they all have started to look alike and once again thanks youtubers pushing stock UI and similar design although i love stock UI but myself I never felt HTC’s Sense UI was bad especially in gingerbread days or certain features in some UI, I couldn’t join the tech reviewer community being in china at that time still have the videos I shot back in 2010 of several phones but couldn’t upload them or at least on my end I would have done things differently

I totally agree with what you are saying. LG always had a way of being creative and didn't go along with the scummy trends. LG made the best of smartphones but sadly they never got the credit they deserved. I used to own the V10 and there was cutting edge features such as rubberized back, dual screen, and wide angle cameras. When Samsung put out the S6 atrocity, I bought the V10! Too many companies are chasing the iphone which is pretty and useless! I blame the youtube influencers who buy things for looks and status and insist everything looks like an iphone. A lot of them act like just because they disagree with a feature means no one else should be allowed to have it! They do not represent us and the general consumer should have known better. I bought a new cell phone in late 2022 and there really wasn't any cell phone on the market that I wanted. Those were terrible. It was either missing features or has the stock google interface, which I do not like! This monopoly between samsung and apple is really bad. I hope LG returns in some way in the future!

Hey Marques, thanks for your insightful commentary. I'm in the "bummer" camp regarding LG's demise. The 2 aspects of LG phones that I most loved are 1) the great audio quality, and 2) the SD card external storage. Which phone in today's market best replicates these attributes? I've read some good reviews of the Xperia. Any other suggestions or advice? Thanks!

LG G2 was the best phone ever for me in high school and lasted me till G6. Double Tap and wide Camera was great but what I loved best was the IR sensor that let it act as a universal remote. I used to make the TVs in school change channels or turn on. I was so bummed out that they took it off in newer LG phones.

My LG V20 just died on me last week. I had that bad boy for five years, and while it certainly was no where near the fastest phone on the market now, the fact that it had a modern CPU, a replaceable battery, built-in condenser mic, and a headphone jack (with a very high quality DAC) made it unbeatable for me. Coupled by the fact that once you rooted it, put on LineageOS and the Google Camera app, it was a multimedia monster.

I feel like LG never really got the credit they deserved. It's a shame. I love how you summarized all the topics and hit the nail on the head with each and every one of them. Completely agree with you on your analysis that LG should've had a steadily flagship line with less of the innovative stuff and next to that line the innovative one where they could try out new things and if it would stick include it in their next flagship line. I'm pretty sure that if they'd done that they would still be around. Anyways it's sad but it's the way it is... R.I.P. LG

who would have guessed i just learned 2 really REALLY hard hitting quotes from MKBHD in a singe video, "either you die young a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become a villan" and "jack of all trades, master at none"

I told you like 2 or 3 years ago Ione your video that LG smartphone division was going to eventually go out of business. I gave up on LG and 2018 when my carrer T-Mobile announced that they were carrying one plus phones starting with the OnePlus 6T. I just had enough of LG in their lack of updates I had the G2 and G4 no updates, the V10 no updates, got the v20 when it first came out October 2016. I got rid of the v20 in August 2018 and it was still on 7.0 nougat. I still got the LG G6 and it got no updates, its still on Android 8.0 Oreo when I brought it in August 2018 and I don't even uses it anymore. The only LG phone that I had that had an update was the Nexus 4 and It was only because that was a Google phone. I had LG phones to Voyager the LG Venus the chocolate back in the 2000s along with other flip phones from other companies like Nextel, Samsung, sanyo etc LG did this to themselves so for the last 3 years I've been only rolling with one plus and Samsung.

Most phones I've had, i've been annoyed with by the time they've died. When my LG G8s died, it was a little heartbreaking. Not only because I had a lot of photos on it, but also it had such a nice UX, and felt "complete" in a way few others have made me feel. My appreciation for my phone grew even more when i got a Samsung S20 from work. It was terrible in comparison. As it happened, the Asus Zenfone 9 was coming out, and as a 3.5mm jack is important to me i bought it. I really like it, and especially the fact that it's more compact. But i still miss many features from the LG.

The G2 and the G3 were both amazing. The G2 was my first smartphone and I had it for a really long time. The battery of the G2 is weak but the phone is still working. I had my G3 up to last year and I loved it. I really really loved it... And then I dropped it at home. This thing lived through three years of a craftswomans life at the building side. So I bought a used G4 for 70€ which is close to dying too by now. I'm still stuck to LG. I'm thinking of getting a G8s ThinQ next...

As a sales rep and a repair tech for a number of years, their phones were notorious for not working. We had so many G3s come in that would just magically break after a year or 2 of usage, never to turn on again. I couldnt with good faith recommend anyone to buy an LG when they had that type of track record.

That's a real shame about LG, so few phone makers have the courage to try new and novel designs.

I'm big on audio. I prefer wired earphones. LG phones and HTC were the best audio phones..

I had an LG G5 for about 4 years. That was a nice little phone. As an individual who repairs electronics for a living, the G5 was one of the best, easiest, and most convenient phones I've ever worked on. I didn't care about the modularity of it and that whole ecosystem, what I liked was how _designing it to be modular_ is what contributed to making it so simple to repair. A customer came in with one and wanted the battery replaced. I figured I'd have to do it like all the other phones similar to it, by heating it up, meticulously removing a glass back, and carefully removing a glued-in battery. Nah. You pull the bottom out and then it's literally right there and can be easily swapped for a new one. Screen replacement was also insanely easy, the screen is clipped in and held at the bottom with two screws (accessible by removing the bottom portion). Additionally, EVEN THE CHARGE PORT was easily replaceable. It resides on a daughterboard inside the removable piece at the bottom. The charge port being a simple removable piece is HUGE. This was during an era where, if you had a broken charge port, you either had to dismantle the whole phone and solder in a replacement, or replace a daughterboard after taking apart the entire thing. As soon as I saw how unbelievably easy and simple it was to repair that phone, I decided to get one for myself. I used that sucker for years. The G5 was _leaps_ ahead of competition in terms of repairability. EVERYTHING in it was user-replaceable, designed to be swapped out with minimal tools, and easy disassembly. The battery, charge port, headphone jack, cameras, buttons, screen, speakers, heck even the motherboard! All super easy to get to, remove, and replace. In my opinion, LG really kinda went crazy after the G5. That's when we started getting phones named like an eBay listing. They also NEVER went back to the impressive innovations they did with the G5's repairability. I really do wish the G5 was their most successful phone, because I would have LOVED to see the things they did with that make their way into other devices. I feel like way too many people were hung up on the "gimmick" of modularity, rather than looking at how it can actually make a far more economically repairable device.

G8: smaller phone that pack everything you want, and with face unlock as good as Face ID. So yes, many yters are unfair to LG phones, but I don't blame yters, I blame marketing for not pushing for it and always miss the point.

I loved my LG G3, such a good phone. My last phone with an easily replaceable battery, just snap off the back cover, pull out the battery. Not great for water resistance, but fantastic for repair and just being able to swap a battery in seconds or even get a third-party battery that was higher capacity than the stock (I found these double-capacity batteries with a custom back panel haha. They gave the phone a bit of a butt, but they made the phone last forever haha). Only downside was the capacitive touchscreen being build into the actual front panel, so a cracked screen meant completely losing the ability to interact with a portion of your screen haha. I miss that phone
