Literally NO ONE ELSE (not even GSMArena) hasn't written an article. But they've written an article about the Velvet and the V50 getting Android 12 updates in South Korea.

Mrwhosetheboss was raving about Nokia 9 PureView and how awesome the camera it is, but we all know how that turned out. Even the manufacturer ditched the phone altogether despite planning to push major Android versions for at least 3 years.

YUKI93, 06 Jun 2022I beg to differ. It's mainly because of popular sponso... moreIt's because LG weren't Samsung, Google or apple let's be honest. Tech Youtubers basically push those 3 (either getting paid off or for views). Also most top tech Youtubers are in or around America, the worst place for phone choice (again its Samsung, Google or apple with Sony or Motorola as back up). Funny because all the Youtubers love the new galaxy s22 ultra s pen and go on about 8k recording... 2 of the most useless gimmicks on a phone right now.

YUKI93, 06 Jun 2022I beg to differ. It's mainly because of popular sponso... moreYeah that's totally true. I don't think the LG G7 has gotten much love by the popular TechTubers either, but after recently owning one myself I am speechless at how good this phone is. Everything about this phone is solid, and I could imagine the same experience with the G8 too.

NeonHD, 31 Mar 2022This phone is the reason why LG went out not with a whimper... moreI beg to differ. It's mainly because of popular sponsored tech YouTubers who always dismissed LG smartphones in general as a "gimmick". Just compare Marques Brownlee and Juan Bagnell's LG G8 video. It's a completely different universe altogether! Speaking of Marques Brownlee, his alongside Mrwhosetheboss video about "why no one buys LG smartphone" is a total SEO click cringe fest. That is why I have completely stopped watching popular sponsored tech channels, they bring little to no intellectual value to me.

It may not be as unique as the LG Wing but it's a much more better phone in general. The LG Wing is cheaper as it's prices have been dropping but I say the Xperia 5 would do it good for you.

Kenzo, 07 Apr 2022Hello 👋 guys i just wanna change phone from pixel to either... moreHi there...
Judging by the comment, you probably have a first gen or second gen Pixel.
OK here's the takeaway...
The Xperia 5 (Mark I or II or III or the upcoming IV) is a flagship in-and-out, it uses Snapdragon 8 series chipsets (I used SD855), has SD card slot, headphone jack, good display and is overall compact
The LG Wing is a different kind of a beast, its big, bulky, and weird.
It uses a Snapdragon 765G (which is more in like with SD845 in terms of performance), so its not bad actually. Does NOT have a headphone jack, no high refresh rate display, but has an SD card slot.
Bottom line: If you want a flagship with great specs and great-to-haves like headphone jack and hot swappable SD card slot, then the Xperia 5 is the better pick.
However, if what you want is a one of a kind device with decent specs, and are willing to live with the compromises bought in by being different, then the LG Wing is a great pick (especially considering that it doesn't ask foldable level prices)
