    Lol Sony..... Removing jack was a dumb move and overpricing their junk.

      Glad to see Lenovo sink.
      As for Samsung, I'm glad aswell, because of - Bixby and trying to force their consumers to actually use it.

      And something gives me feeling that Apple could start to sink aswell...

Look, the sales are plummiting, market share are fading away and people have lack of interest buying LG products. Only their washing machine and TV are doing great, LoL!!!! :)

Then here is what, how come Nokia sold more phones than Sony, LY, HTC, OnePlus and Google Pixel last year and how come last year Nokia 6 was the best phone of 2017??? Don't think that's it's fake or some sort of bluff.

                    Expected revenue growth from Apple.

                    Just keep making old accessories incompatible for new devices and cash keeps flowing in.

                      The smartphone market pollutes our environment and makes landfills grow. I'm fed up with all this plastic and electronic waste and you should be too. People only need the latest mobiles to brag, not because their old device is broken. Stop supporting your "dealer".
