I also blamed some tech YouTubers who speed up the demise of LGs and other brands that they think too quirky (looking at you, MKBHD)

I will always remember the LG V30 in silver. The best phone I have ever had. I am so sad and miss this perfect device. If I could buy a V30 new, I would throw away my S26!

Artem S. Tashkinov, 05 Apr 2026While you are missing LG phones, I am missing your Photo Compare Tool. It was extremely useful... moreW find.
GSMArena had the photo/video compare tool and their current speaker test making em one of the best online databases for phones around.

No, I'm not! Those were absolutely low-quality phones, the only ones worse were from dead brand HTC.

The V20 was one of my absolute favorite beasts. First phone with an Ultrawide cam, powerful DAC inside the headphone jack, REPLACEABLE battery, expanded memory, 2K bright panel, and that second screen was a joy to use back in the day.
If it wasn't for the fact that I got a carrier variant, I would infinitely root it and slap a custom ROM on it to still use it.

Family member of mine still uses an LG Velvet. I remember when they were the leaders in smartphone innovation with phones way ahead of their time like the G3. Xperia going to suffer the same fate soon, already sold Bravia off.
While you are missing LG phones, I am missing your Photo Compare Tool. It was extremely useful (thought limited) for comparing phone cameras. I guess it took 15 minutes per phone to populate images from it, nowadays you offer nothing and it's impossible to make an educated choice.
It would also be great if you revisited the LG V20. It produced the best stills for many years, long after it was replaced.

they can come back and make a cheap low end phone against Redmi Note, Poco or other cheap Chinese phones.. they wasted money making a flagship, forget it.. they should have the advantage of being available in many countries because they don't sell only phones but TVs, ACs etc.

Seeing LG being featured once again on GSMArena brought me a tear down my eye, may LG come back
