LG failed because for some stupid reason, they decided to sell 9 million different phones between countries.
I miss LG phones. They always tried weird shit with their flagships; curved phone?done. Modular phone? Yes. Two screens? Yup. Also their V-series was probably the best phones ever for those of us who value good audio higher than great cameras.
Edit: I used to work as a reviewer for a magazine and used the curved LG G4 for quite a while. I really liked it, though I never actually bought one.
LG ending their mobile division really sucked, the V series phones were some of the best phones ever imo. I really miss my V30, the quad DAC was awesome and the camera was actually pretty amazing too. They also weren't bloated with unremovable shit like flagships are nowadays.
Agreed, I've got expensive headphones that I can no longer use with my phone because apparently we don't want/need headphone jacks anymore. Less features and phones are more expensive than ever. Yay consumerism.
Loved my dual screen v50. Wanted the V60, but it was never sold in Australia.
