It is a shame LG pull out of cell phone biz. Such a good phone for music! And very good in other regards. Fingerprint sensor is sucks. If you planning to keep it for long I'd recommend screen protector coz oleophobic coating is wearing out with time and smudges getting to be very noticable.

It is tiny and 3 out of 5 times it will fail. G8X was LG's first attempt on on-screen fingerprint readers. LG dramatically improved this on their Velvet & V60 phones. Also the display. Specially mention to V60, it is the king of the hill and best phone LG ever made.

For example, if you visit a malicious website, open an infected pdf, install a bad app, or so.

                          If you minimise your usage to the point where you're just using regular apps from Play Store, and not browsing too much, you're not likely to be affected. I'm an Android 10 for music quality needs. Its still going good.
                          My last phone had Android 4.4 in the last days, no security problem happened.

                            Final OS 12 update was on Feb 2023. Highly unlikely G8X thinq will recieve any more security updates. Is it safe to use without the security updates? What is the ideal time to stop using it and what are the precautions we must take until replacement?

                                Do one thing: Go to Settings/ Extensions/ Smart Doctor/ Test Hardware... And test all modules one by one, and let me know if there's a problem in any sensor... ?

                                  Anonymous, 19 Sep 2023LG g8x fingerprint uses optical technology. Which means it ... moreWhen comparing my G8X's (Android 10) with LG Velvet (Android 13):

                                  1) LG have significantly improved the P-OLED display quality on Velvet
                                  2) The speed and accuracy of the fingerprint scanner have dramatically improved.
                                  3) My Velvet comes with Snapdragon 765G, but feels as fast and snappy as G8X.
                                  4) The G8X with Snapdragon 855 is better in games.
                                  5) G8X have better cameras.
                                  6) While built quality wise both are same, however Velvet feels much more of a premium phone.
                                  7) After using a lot of LG phones, I can safely say Velvet is LG's pinnacle in terms of exterior design and aesthetics.
