Anonymous, 22 Jan 2021You can continue paying more for less while we others wont.I will. I'll pull out my old HTC Magic for old time's sake and use it for the weekend.
After that, any of the other devices I've had for 10+ years will get a turn.
I imagine there's a reason my cellular network doesn't carry s#itty phones. Maybe because they like customers.

Did under display fingerprint readers? Under display selfies? Ryyb sensors? Yeah, Chinese vendors are stealing all these tech that other vendors don't have. I'm not even going to start on features in Chinese roms that don't exist on stock Android.

Chinese companies are operating differently, they do lot of online sales, they don't have big business to run, they doesn't have worldwide launches, they won't operate globally. They steal things. They only do mostly free advertising online and many others. In the end of day this means that these big companies like LG, HTC, Sony and Samsung can't but watch how their sales are slowly stolen by chinese companies.

This could turn for the better as the Vinsmart phones are pretty solid and well-specced as far as the Vietnamese reception is concerned, and we might see competitive LG models in the future even if it's only by name.

I have a soft spot for LG. I think they make great products. I'm disappointed in their decision to stop making phones. Although I've never owned an LG phone, my mother used to own an LG feature phone. She really liked it.
Don't stop making phones LG. I might buy one eventually.

Funny how anybody who dislikes the chinese brands is thought to be american first instead of just not liking cheap stuff. Not sure how it's that hard to comprehend.

Low quality? Naaahh not really.
You American Ppl simply don't have access to bang for buck Chinese products.
Companies like LG, Sony have fallen prey to quality products provided by Chinese at low prices. Even Samsung had to provide better products in budget and mid range segment in order to survive in that segment.
