          Ooohhh! I'm gonna buy one as soon as it comes out.

          No! Wait! Don't forget, self. Remember all your LG devices. G4 Beat, Stylus 3, Q6, etc. LG screwed you over multiple times by not updating your phones' software, when even local brands were giving more regular updates. Not even security updates!

          Don't get fooled a fifth time!

                        Non-chinese brands need to get their pricing right... They charge too much for brand or maybe profit margins too high.. otherwise chinese will get every sector in control to much

                          If theres one thing LG have got right tthis time, the design is so much better than other brands, and theyve got the cameras looking different fron the ugly iphone square that everyone seems to be copying

                            [deleted post]Wait what, punch hole?! (Though this **** has been a trend among vendors...)

                                  Nice design, MTK chipset, low ram, low mamory and no updates. All these for "just" 400 to 500 or even 600 $/€.
                                  Pass.
                                  They consider themselve too big to come with good hatdware and afordable prices.
                                  If the chinese brans like Xiaomi increased their prices why should LG have lower prices?

                                    Whether you like LG or not, this design looks pretty!
