Do you remember all those LG terminals?

6 LG follies and mistakes we'll all remember: its flagship phones
This is what YouTube looks like on the LG Wing.

It is finished. LG exits the mobile phone market. Despite the fact that its numbers have not been accompanied recently and that there have been light years from other brands such as Samsung, Xiaomi, Huawei or OPPO, The truth is that a large corporation like LG leaving us is bad news.

Because yes, LG is big. Their latest launched models are really innovative and Behind it we left devices that were living legends on Android.

Many of its mobile devices have been instrumental in bringing Android to the privileged position it has today, and while the South Koreans have also made many mistakes, We won’t deny that LG’s good points outweigh the bad points.

Today we want to remember all these crazy things — and also failures — that the great LG gave us everything this year.

The Google plus Nexus 5, LG’s best phone?

For many it’s the best Android phone ever – sorry for the Nexus 4 -. A powerful device with excellent performance that only suffered from a somewhat lacking camera and a somewhat weak battery, but went on sale at a brand new price for now. In summary: a true genius.

The Nexus 5 will be remembered as one of those phones that changed everything in Android. It’s a shame we’ll never see a device that’s not just the same, but afín.

LG G2

The LG G2, a work of art made mobile

And if the LG-made Google plus device is in the Android phone hall of fame, The same goes for its first cousin, the LG G2.This is undoubtedly the most habitual phone under the South Korean name.

The LG G2 installed the currently most powerful processor, the Qualcomm Snapdragon 800, which offered unprecedented performance and although it was not without criticism, The truth is that many tech media have named the device of the year, it was no coincidence.

LG G8X ThinQ

This case adds a second screen to the phone

LG didn’t have everything to praise it for. Some terminals like this G8X ThinQ confused us a bit and frankly not because it was a bad device, if not because the iniciativa behind the device was executed really badly.

As we showed in their analysis, the device had an odd cover that added a second screen. The problem? That the case not only made the device much larger, but also made it quite heavy, which makes it uncomfortable to use.

LG G5

The LG G5 went for modularity and it didn’t fare very well

We continue with another madness of the company and this time it’s time to talk about the LG G5, a terminal that has opted for modularity and was a complete revolution at the time. The LG G5 was based on interchangeable modules at a time when phones were starting to not even contain removable batteries.

Unfortunately, this topic of the module did not come to the public And the reason is that LG has made great terminals. The truth is, marketing has never been a forte.

LG G Flex

The LG G Flex was one of the first curved terminals

The LG G Flex was one of the first curved terminals on the planet and it showed The South Korean company wanted to try to innovate.

At the time, it seemed that curved screens were in the future, and while that’s clearly not the case, this device was a game-changer for this type of technology. A true pioneer.

LG wings

LG Wing with two screens

The double screen of the LG Wing, its great advantage compared to other teléfonos inteligentes.

And we end with one of LG’s strangest devices and one of the last devices in its catalogue, the LG Wing, a double screen terminal but with an unprecedented concept.

The problem is that all the innovations that this LG Wing has brought are hidden could not justify its price of over 1,000 euros except for those who are tired of the same old format on their mobile phones and wanted to try something new. Result? The one we all know, LG closes the blinds. We will never forget you.
