1EmmyKay:LG was mostly popular with the European market and that's how they lost out . their phones were made for the europeans as Apple and Samsung already took the US share. their midrange phones weren't that midrange compared to the midrange devices flooding our African markets now. I saw the LG thinq range of phones and I'm certain they can go head to head with any Samsung phone before the s21 1 Like |

Nicklaus619:Depends. I love their innovative ideas. I hope my current LG phone with dual screen lasts long enough. No other phone company has given this type of ease of multitasking on phones with dual screens. They also created the wide angle lens first on the LGG5, before being copied by other phone companies. 2 Likes |

tribalistseun:LG is one weird company. They also invented the first smart fridge. Then they dropped the idea after it did not sell well. Samsung on the other hand quickly started producing the same smart fridge and spent tons of money on marketing. Samsung is now the number one brand for smart fridge. 2 Likes |

baralatie: Their phones are damaged expensive but no second value. Why would I buy a phone of 75k and you are asking me to come and fix the screen for 50k... |

wwwtortoise:The last 3 are not even significant in the scheme of things. In the abroad where mobile phone companies make most of their money due to contracts and yearly upgrades, it's either Samsung or Apple. All others like LG, Huawei, Sony, Motorola are trailing behind. The Infinix, Tecno e.t.c are not even ranked due to their low quality. 2 Likes |

Sad News! I've been an LG fan for thirteen years and this news made me really sad. I think LG has produced good phones but unfortunately, its brand was not appealing to many people. LG Will be missed! 1 Like |

aaking:Not to me. I love to multi task on my V60. I could be twitting and watching YouTube at the same time. I also do lots of online shopping on Amazon. It's easy for me to compare prices and features by having 2 screens side by side. But the problem lies in that fact that they don't appeal to every one. People prefer stuffs live thin bezel screens or 120hz refresh rates. 1 Like |

m140:The V60 only cost $1100. Got it for $700 or so on contract. Samsung S20 was retailing for $1500 around the same time. |

Re: LG Electronics To Shut Down Its Mobile Phone Business by salford1: 5:40pm On Apr 05, 2021 |
Destinylink:I have never seen a V40 in real life. The V series are beasts and work horse. They are like trucks of phones. LG skipped the V40 and V50 thinQ in Canada, and alot of EU countries. LG users were literally begging them to launch those phones in their market, but LG being a weird company did not. Alot of people switched to Samsung during that period. I bought a G8 and managed it, but I knew I was missing out on the V Series which are beast compared to the g-series. Even the V60. The phone sold out in a few weeks. I bought the last one in my city. After calling almost all phone shops. They only produced a few for markets outside the USA. |
