lg one of the biggest smartphone
manufacturers
in the world has now officially exited
the industry
this means that they will not be
producing new lg smartphones in 2021
this came from an official press release
after weeks of rumors that the south
korean company is planning to end
its mobile division
will you lose updates or support if
you're an lg smartphone owner
no if you have an lg v60 or velvet
you will still receive software updates
and service support
if you also want to buy an lg smartphone
today
their inventory will remain on sale in
stores and online
so here in sydney cbd repair center we
love great innovations and technology
lg has been one of our favorites because
there are a lot of features that are
unique to the brand
some of these features were also adopted
by other companies
in their own smartphone models
so here are 5 lg features that are just
genius and downright outrageously good
[Music]
their camera innovations lg was the
first smartphone manufacturer to
put ultrawide cameras on its units
the lg g5 and lg v20
are the best examples for this
innovation
of course they did not stop there the lg
v40
is the first true multi-camera array
with standard
ultrawide and telephoto cameras at the
back
this feature was immediately adopted by
competitors because it makes the
smartphone more versatile
in any shooting scenario
the quad deck although not that
mainstream the audiophile niche
swear by the awesome quad dac technology
that lg introduced in its smartphones
while apple and the rest of the industry
abandoned the 3.5
head headphone jack lg double down on it
it added a digital to analog converter
on the v20
which delivers high fidelity audio
quality
given that succeeding models such as the
v30 supports micro sd card expansion
lg was a music lover's favorite
smartphone brand
multi-screen features lg is not your old
boring technology company
so it's fair to say that they want more
than one old boring screen for a
smartphone
what did they do multiple screen
features
it started off with the lg double play
from 2012
which later inspired the lg wing
lg also introduced the dual screen case
which allows you to add another screen
to your
single screen smartphone it's very
clever and like the lg
wing this is crazy concept that no other
smartphone maker
was able to replicate
modular attachments in the mobile world
congress of 2016
lg announced the lg g5 what's special
about it
well it's a smartphone that attempts to
deliver a modular
smartphone ecosystem by allowing the
user to attach
accessories directly to the body of the
smartphone
you can attach a camera grip with a
shutter button and a jog
dial for zooming you can even attach an
external dac
to improve your audio these modules or
as
lg calls them friends can be slid
on and off at the bottom of the device
curved screens in 2013
lg announced a new smartphone with a
totally new approach in screen
technology
they released the lg g flex and as the
name suggests
it's got a flex or a curved display
this banana shaped smartphone to be
honest is still classy until today
added to this they also created a
self-healing plastic
rear panel that will erase micro
scratches
how cool is that
lg was one of the companies that never
stopped innovating and experimenting
it's a shame that some of these features
not bring commercial success for the
company
hence resulting in their unfortunate
exit from the smartphone game
will surely miss lg
do you own an lg smartphone what are
your fondest memories of the brand
let us know in the comments thanks for
joining us
until next time cheers
