    It's a sad day, LG was one of the few that kept the charger, SD card slot and the headphone jack.

      End of an era. Thank you LG to have brought your share of innovation to the table and to GSMA for sharing with us all details of their great devices through your awesome reviews for the past 2 decades

                  2021 : Lg Is out

                  2023 : Huawei is out because they can't make phone and chips anymore.

                  2030 : Google is out because of their stubbornness to lean to software and make bad hardware.

                    They were not always the best smartphone makers but they were always coming up with the craziest phones like the rollable and the first truly curved phone good luck to them in their future endeavors

                      Too long partner, wish you were competitive after the G4 as well, at least your innovations pushed the market forward, the bright high resolution displays, Laser AF and UW cameras... You will be missed

                        Who will be next on the chopping block?

                          All this because LG wouldnt hire me...if they did..they would still be on the market because they overthink the industry approach

                            Should have just sold it. Now no more LG rollable phone just after releasing the LG Wing

                              This is tragic

                                Good bye LG! I'll keep your G8x running for as long as possible as a memory. My first & and sadly also the last... Too bad that you could do better but you chose to rather kill yourself..!
