      I happen to know that LG Chem spreads lies quite often. Let's see if the claims hold.

        Come back to the phone business! Take a couple years if you need to! Don't leave us with just Samsung!

          Anonymous, 07 Sep 2021U forgot the price as a disadvantage no google services ... morewhy is google service a disadvantage if Huawei have there own OS now with there own service ?

            A pity that this doesn't have a chance to be applied on their phones, but good to see LG still has the influence in other ways.

            Honestly I look forward to seeing this in rollable phones instead, despite seemingly more intended for foldables

              Plastic as hard as glass...
              Sure... Sure... Let's just post everything this low budget brand's marketing department says, without questioning it.

                - LG was much more popular in America continent compared to Europe, Africa, Asia and Oceania. In USA, most buy from carriers and OEMs sacrifice a lot of profits to keep it. In South America, flagship market is non-existent basically (except iphone).
                - Since G5 fiasco, the % of flagships sold have faced huge drop. G3 and G4 sold more than 10 mi units each.
                - most of sales have become K series and those cheap sub-$160 phones for carriers in USA. This brings almost no money because these phones are not as cheap to make as sub-$160 from China.
                - LG did not want to give on markets where things were very bad to focus on places they had better situation, like other OEMs had done.

                LG should have quit places like Oceania, Africa and Asia (except South Korea) to reduce operational costs. Focus on making less devices per year, no more than 5 or 6.

                V60 is proof that is useless to try to undercut price of Samsung/Apple.
                Device has some downgrades compared to V50, an attempt to reduce costs and they sold it for similar price of S20 FE.
                All was in vain ....

                              1. Thinner
                              2. No gap
                              3. Next to no crease
                              4. More dust proof
                              5. Easier to water proof
                              6. Big display even when it is closed
                              7. Phone form factor, not a TV controller
                              8. Most important of all, Cheaper because you need one instead of two displays and one instead of three camera systems

                              Disadvantages

                              1. Easily scratched (not any more)
                              2. More likely to break your display if you drop it.

                                Sad to say goodbye to LG and HTC. Soon we will say goodbye to Sony too sadly. On the other hand Samsung and Xiaomi are improving. Forget about lag. Their phones are stable now.

                                  Hard as glass, then continue to talk about PET films and layers. So, it's just plastic. Which is nothing like glass...

                                    I wait on LG rollable or Foldable.. Smartphone R.I.P but no new tech.

                                      There are no excuses anymore. The mate x form factor is the way to go now
