I must say, you are the only decent review i've seen to this phone, actually covering day to day use and not just lab testing. The part about the side buttons is when I subscribed to your channel. Great work! hoping to see your next videos
I feel the need to say something: This thing has a rotating screen, a large battery, and a pop up camera. It still keeps expandable storage. I have no more to say.
Not to mention, for those who just want to stand out of the crowd in terms of form factor, this is the best phone there is out there that still is pretty great in terms of performance for a MID-range phone.
Yes it does have the DAC. But it only works when it's plugged in via audio jack dongle . It even says so in the settingsm yikes. Not sure many are looking into this.
@@GenkiStarLeaf NO,only explorer devices like new rollable phone will not have headphone jack while new project rainbow flagship will have headphone jack and DAC according to LG.
I really enjoy Juan Carlos Bagnell. He is more of the gadget geek and less of the typical gadget reviewer. His take on things tends to better gel with mine.
I've had this phone for 5 hours and am in love with the multitasking innovation it has made doing business on my phone for my business so much more smooth and seamless
I basically never subscribe to phone reviewers, This was an incredibly honest video and understanding that this phone isnt for the basic consumer, I immediately subscribed when the video was over. This was the review I was looking for when I searched and will come to you with any review I need in the future. THANK YOU!
It is kinda funny how lg has has knock on/off since the g2 and tech reviewers can't do something as simple as testing it on the smaller screen. Lol I did it on my v60s second screen just to see if it worked when I first got it it's not rocket science.
Definitely! I held off the V60 dual display purchase because I ride a motorcycle, and the folding case is a NO-GO on the go. Other similar scenarios would pose a similar issue. And I am glad I did. This is a much better option in my case. I am now hoping to have my fun with it and to get a V70 when it comes out because I do like my "V" lineup. )))
Your take on phone reviews is super refreshing. I’m trying to figure out if I want to upgrade my phone and you take all the marketing out and make a compelling case for what use-case each phone may be best for. If we’re being honest, all these latest phones are awesome and it seems there’s no ultimate best, just what best suits the user. This is super helpful, thank you for going that extra mile compared to spec sheet reading other channels seem to rely on. Subscribed!
I have this phone and allllllll I can say is HAPPY EXCITED and the Multitasking features are out of this world!!!! I was able to have 3 THREE apps open at the same time and able to make a phone call and received calls. This phone is INNOVATIVE for Business & Personal use IT'S THE FUTURE!
Coming back to this video in August 2022, I actually did get mine at the end of July 2022 for the equivalent of $270. It took me about three weeks to arrive since it's a South Korea variant, but... WOW! It's totally worth every penny! It really didn't take long for me to get all familiar with the swivel screen. I also love the gimbal camera for giving me total control for video recording. It may only record at 1080p/30fps, but I'm still more than okay with it.
The fact that I could watch landscape video while holding the phone in portrait is single handedly making me consider this phone, especially when its about 350-400 on ebay
@@sc9433 That's the reason why we still like LG Mobile for not being afraid to be different. It's just a shame that most average consumers only care about SamApple products from popular sponsored "techies".
I really really really love my LG Wing. I actually have my Note 20 Ultra parked up in the box just because I prefer the LG. Apart from the weight of the phone and the single speaker, I absolutely love the feel of the phone when I hold it. Such a shame we didn't get a follow up on this one. Oh well......
You can tap the bottom screen and it will automatically switch to pin. It will not show immediately specifically double tap the bottom screen even if its doesn't say. Unlock will appear. I wish the compatibility was mentioned when you turn it 90 degrees. The orientation changes so you can hold it pretty much any way.
I dont even remember the last time i used the power button to lock/unlock any of my LG phones. Besides the actual turning off of the phone and taking screenshots, i dont ever "click" the power button. I even have the "Knock Code" unlock patern on my V30 and have had it on my G4, i still unlock it with it when its lying on the surface, and normally i use the fingerprint sensor when not on surface. Always loved the double tap and it just feels weird using a different phone and then tapping the screen to lock lol
Definitely the best review of the LG Wing I've seen. And I've seen them all. Yes, the lack of the Quad DAC is almost a deal breaker, but I'll have my V30 for that. Btw, it would be great if you could follow up with a review of a USB type C dongle with DAC/AMP and 3.5 mm jack built in to pair with this device. Thanks again
The perks of owning a V series phone 1st before jumping onto other phones. The V series with the quad dac can be kept as a portable music player even when we are no longer using it as our daily phone in the future.
10:53 About that. Since LG's last three major phones use similar (main) screen technologies and sizes, that has the interesting implication that LG Velvet screen protectors are technically LG Wing protectors as well. Personally I use a "ArmorSuit MilitaryShield Anti-Glare Screen Protector for LG Velvet (2020) (Case Friendly) Anti-Bubble Matte Film". PSA, you can actually buy a second one, cut it to have it actually fit the second smaller screen of the LG Wing! Due to this, I actually managed to protect both screens without majorly screwing up the functionality if the swivel in the process. PS: "Case-Mate - Tough Plus - Case for LG Wing (5G)" works exceptionally well with said screen protectors. I'm honestly surprised no-one tried to use LG Velvet screen protectors on their V60s and Wings considering their main screens are basically similar specification wise, sizing included. Then again it is the mobile techies community we're dealing with here lol.
Great review Juan, really concise and addresses all the concerns a buyer might have. Can't wait to try this out at some point and get a feel of that slider!
In few words this is the best one out, using full power from the chipset, giving the best outcome from every aspect... That really means lg is improving... I had a lg g7, got g8x this year and saw the initial improvement....
Best video review I have seen (way too may). Thank you for calling out the neigh-sayers too. The other issue about the price is so sad too. You nailed it!
I truly appreciate this video. Agreed, if does look like a better phone on the go. The only thing missing is that quad dac. Thanks for the review Juan.
Juan, I agree 100%. Phones have become a boring but functional slab. I love the idea of pushing boundaries, and it's refreshing that LG continues to to this. I hope they continue to do so.
Juan is literally making "tech reviewers" look like they don't know what they are doing Lol. (Not saying all of them, but most) This is why I love watching his reviews, even if I know I'm not buying that specific phone. Most reviewers are bias nowadays
i really love the way you review Sir. honest and the true usability of a Smartphone from overall hardware to software. no Bias at all!! cheers to more honest and consumer tech-reviews!
I have used Samsung One plus and IPhone (primary) and now got LG G8X + dual screen for 300$. What a terrific phone and purchase. I'm impressed with LG. Never thought I will buy LG phone in my life. I'm convinced with LGs dual screen / wing solutions. It's more fun and multitasking beasts.
With all the smartphone industry becoming so excessively boring, this is quite a treat. And USEFUL treat. We need more phones (and reviews!) like this.
@@SomeGadgetGuy exactly my point, while foldable phones are more innovative, LG WINGed it with a twist. Foldable phones are amazing, we can agree to that but i really think they're aren't ready yet.
@@jethmercer2532 Especially people's wallets. $1,000 is way less painful than $2,000 lol (and it still has expandable storage and the dongle included, etc.)

Satisfying review as usual thank you for make us see the other side of all kind of smartphones without wasting time with stupid things as the other reviewers do.🤘
Revisiting this video after about a year. I just received an update that brings more efficient background process management and Android 12, September 15, 2022. Let's see how it goes in the next few weeks.
@@SomeGadgetGuy Despite this fact I’m still intrigued by the versatility you showcased here. This is easily the best video I’ve seen on the LG Wing. No shade at any other creators, this is simply much more in depth.
Great review Juan! Definitely spotlights the useful features of this phone. Personally I went with the V60 for my personal device - and I couldn't agree with you more - it is a beast! Really appreciate your insight! Thanks!!
This is the ultimate phone if you are a delivery driver/Courier. I'm always fumbling around with my phone trying to switch between apps as a delivery driver trying to keep in contact with my dispatch. The LG Wing solves that problem I've got GPS maps open on one screen with the slack app to communicate with my dispatch open on the other screen. I keep them both open the entire time in my commute if you are a true multitasker this phone is perfect for you
At 8:08 double tap to sleep can also work in any window u just have to tap the notification bar twice. Dont really have to go back to homescreen to do that
Dude, first video of yours I have seen and I already love your charisma and review style. You definitely deserve more subs and you definitely got mine!
Subbed! I am growing tired of big tech youtubers who don't seem to have a clue about the very thing they claim to have mastery on - tech. Whoever pays them gets positive reviews, or in most cases - a review, at all. There are not enough reviews on LG, Sony phones (and other brands that are not apple, oneplus and samsung whose marketing consists entirely of throwing big numbers around and passively paying big youtubers), and when i do find one the "avg consumer" thing you talk about kicks in and results in a review that feels like checking off a list. When you hold a phone in your hand and actually use it, that is when a review can actually happen. Reading specs off a list and filling a 7min video with b rolls is all it takes these days to make a review apparently. Again, thank you for your work. I dont need flashy b rolls and a spec list , but a guy who sits down and genuinely talks about his experience which seemlessly comes from daily use to a formal review.
I trust your reviews more than the other popular youtubers. Seriously, you don't even pop up on the search list if i dont put your name after "LG wing review" even though the title is the same.
Loved your review!!! I plan on getting this at some point. I'm using my Surface duo as my daily driver for all mobile activities at the moment. I don't plan on getting this as my main mobile device or phone, just going to get it because of how innovative it is!!
That gimble mode is absolutely *wicked*. For the first time, I'm excited to see what LG will do next. The V10 was awesome with it's steel rails snd ruggedness, but I feel it inches towards Samsung-ish design choices with each iteration. It finally seems LGs got it's confidence back and there banging out wicked ideas and phones. So cool. Too bad I'm not rich though.
Buying this device is really deliberate move and I don't think I am there yet. But these kind of ideas are pushing the boundaries of how we use our mobile devices.
People complaining about power button? Lg floored this a long time ago. Even my v20 powers off the screen if you tap the home screen twice. If you want to turn off the screen while an app is open, tap the notification bar twice
In terms of phones LG have really banged it out of the park this year by offering different experiences in different price ranges and the Wing seems utterly engaging. That gimbal feature is sublime. I want! I want! I want! Footstamping over.
I really like this guy! He's very articulate, has great energy & personality and isn't a shill for apple (like Marques Brownnose, crapple explained, the splerge, CuntNet and many, MANY others). He even has a nice sense of humor and is more focused on the positive side of the LG WING and the fun that us users have/can have with it!! 😎👍 Subscribed, Liked & Appreciated, my friend! ♥️🌹✅
LG makes awesome phones. I have the V60 and love using it. The G8 might be the most perfect phone...2k screen, headphone jack, 32-bit Hi-Fi QuadDAC, 3D Face Unlock, rear fingerprint reader, perfect screen size and form factor, the blazing Snapdragon 855, and that unworldly Carmine Red.
Best review on this phone. Others who reviewed this haven't actually used it. Lol. T-mobile had a 50% off promo when i bought it. $500 is a good deal for me.
Ima buy one on Black Friday ;) Also love your style of videos Its annoying that if i want to buy the wing many other tech reviewers push you to not buy it and buy like a zflip or a regular phone.
I bought this phone on the 2nd. I love the option to allow apps to be used on the small screen and the large battery. Well.. Everything really. If I absolutely *had* to complain its the small particles of like dirt that can sometimes get in the gaps between the screens but that's not even much of an issue
I think it's a fair concern, but not something I'd consider a deal breaker. Just something that requires a small change in how we care for a phone. Congrats on the new pocket computer!
@@SomeGadgetGuy thank you! Best $1000 I could have spent on a phone. I explained it to some people that.. If Im going to spend this much on a phone I want it to be different. I want it to do something no other phone does. And the LG Einf met that quota with flying colours
I got the V60 5G but i really wish I had gone with this instead. There are times where I have left the house without my dual screen case only to wish I had a second screen later on. This is a better solution to that very unique circumstance
I think there is LG biase. T-Mobile's website is arranged by new phones on the top and older phones at the bottom. LG Wing was sorta close to the top last week when it was released and now it's all the way at the bottom. Strange, huh?
OMG! I kept waiting for your full review video. Loveeee it. I know ur soft spot with LG. I got 2 Wings in blue and grey with the T-Mobile buy 1 get 1 free promo. Loveee it.
@@SomeGadgetGuy I loveeee my illusion sky. Any way you can do a 10 must do tricks on your LG Wing video? Don't laugh, but i dunno how to add new app icons to the swivel screen when swiveled up. Sooo frustrating!
@@SomeGadgetGuy I'm surprised Marques Brownlee was semi-nice in his LG Wing video review. He always takes a big dump on LG like he just had 20 tacos with mystery meat haha
I was planning to get this to upgrade the wifey's V40, but I think we will wait and hope for a gen II with a top tier processor and 4k in gimbal mode. We love the phone and were looking forward to it, but we just need a little more, and we are willing to pay a little more as would be appropriate.
I do like the like the hardware experimentations LG does, but let's hope that LG finally stats to deliver on the software support front. I loved my v30 but after it stopped receiving software support and doing the bare minimum for the 2y (every 3 months and months old security patch) i jumped ship.
V30 was four years ago now. The major change from their software center happened around the V40 to G8 transition. Still room for improvement, but your talking about a completely different beast now. It's like judging the iPhone 12 by saying "iphones used to bend".
@@SomeGadgetGuy I pre-order the phone in my region and got it end December of 2017, so closer to three years than four. It releasing without treble and android 7 so ending at android 9 was to be expected, but the overall promise of better software upport never really came through and that has certainly influenced my purchasing decision this time as I'm now happy on my S20 fe 5g with the promises of 3y support. Keep up the great work, really enjoy your take on the subjects 👍
God I love this phone. Really wish LG had stuck around and made a second/third iteration, and invested in marketing. This form factor had so much potential,
Since I first saw LG's DualScreen case, I have been rooting so hard for LG and the new Wing definitely got me giggled so hard. Boy, I. SO. WANT. TO BUY ONE! 😍😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️❤️

Coolest looking phone of 2020, maybe coolest looking electronic device this year.
Truth.
I love you with the double tap 🤣🤣🤣 as if everyone forgot about the double tap was an LG standard for as long as I can remember!
Since the G2 days
I can't really remember if it's LG or Windows Phone OS that started the double tap trend.
@@FAT8893 it was windows phone but LG gave the feature in about 6-8 months. But other OEMs didn't give this feature for another 2-4 years.
I remember seeing LGs knock code, don't know if in practice it was more trouble than it was worth, but thinking that looked so cool.
Wasn't it Nokia?
I must say, you are the only decent review i've seen to this phone, actually covering day to day use and not just lab testing. The part about the side buttons is when I subscribed to your channel.
Great work! hoping to see your next videos
I feel the need to say something:
This thing has a rotating screen, a large battery, and a pop up camera. It still keeps expandable storage.
I have no more to say.
LOL. Yup!
Except for a 3.5 mm jack ..which is fine for today's standards cos it's a niche product
@@beerusthedestroyer1579 And even then LG included a dongle. The other companies don't have any excuses with how much more money they get than LG LOL
Not to mention, for those who just want to stand out of the crowd in terms of form factor, this is the best phone there is out there that still is pretty great in terms of performance for a MID-range phone.
Love my Wing. Surprised how much performance they're getting out of the 765G
IT'S CRAZY! Punches well above in daily use.
@@SomeGadgetGuy antutu score?
What's your take on the Wing's battery life?
@@wackychimp average. Gets the job done but nothing top tier
@@Domo8186 dude the thing is, in India, velvet is available with SD845. That too hella cheaper. LG is way off with their distribution tactic.
This is just so unique. LG has really knocked it out the park.
The LG Wing is one dope looking phone. My only gripe is that it doesn't have the signature quad DAC. That's why I'll go with the V60.
I've got a feeling the V60 will be the last LG smartphone we'll see with the Quad DAC. Hope not though.
Yes it does have the DAC. But it only works when it's plugged in via audio jack dongle . It even says so in the settingsm yikes. Not sure many are looking into this.
Is the LG sound engine what we are talking about? Because it's there even with 3D audio but have to be connected via headphone dongle
To be honest the LG sound that swapped out the quad dac is pretty decent but depends on how much of an audio guy you are.
@@GenkiStarLeaf NO,only explorer devices like new rollable phone will not have headphone jack while new project rainbow flagship will have headphone jack and DAC according to LG.

I did it on my v60s second screen just to see if it worked when I first got it it's not rocket science.
because its not a samsung they won't bother to explore nuances like that
@@ShaiyanHossain pretty much, they only do that for normie phones (Apple, samsung).
It is intriguing. And it IS innovative. I kinda like this more than the folding screen tech.
Folding is better when you can put it down, but this is definitely my pick for USING it on the go.
Definitely!
I held off the V60 dual display purchase because I ride a motorcycle, and the folding case is a NO-GO on the go. Other similar scenarios would pose a similar issue. And I am glad I did. This is a much better option in my case.
I am now hoping to have my fun with it and to get a V70 when it comes out because I do like my "V" lineup. )))
I am down for that
Reason why I purchased it. I can do more easily, especially having it mounted open on the car. It's just awesome!

@@SomeGadgetGuy Despite this fact I’m still intrigued by the versatility you showcased here. This is easily the best video I’ve seen on the LG Wing. No shade at any other creators, this is simply much more in depth.
Great review Juan! Definitely spotlights the useful features of this phone. Personally I went with the V60 for my personal device - and I couldn't agree with you more - it is a beast! Really appreciate your insight! Thanks!!
This is the ultimate phone if you are a delivery driver/Courier. I'm always fumbling around with my phone trying to switch between apps as a delivery driver trying to keep in contact with my dispatch. The LG Wing solves that problem I've got GPS maps open on one screen with the slack app to communicate with my dispatch open on the other screen. I keep them both open the entire time in my commute if you are a true multitasker this phone is perfect for you
At 8:08 double tap to sleep can also work in any window u just have to tap the notification bar twice.
Dont really have to go back to homescreen to do that
The one and only phone (and tech) channel that matters.
Great take. I am so excited for where they can go with this concept
Dude, first video of yours I have seen and I already love your charisma and review style. You definitely deserve more subs and you definitely got mine!
😁👍
Subbed! I am growing tired of big tech youtubers who don't seem to have a clue about the very thing they claim to have mastery on - tech. Whoever pays them gets positive reviews, or in most cases - a review, at all. There are not enough reviews on LG, Sony phones (and other brands that are not apple, oneplus and samsung whose marketing consists entirely of throwing big numbers around and passively paying big youtubers), and when i do find one the "avg consumer" thing you talk about kicks in and results in a review that feels like checking off a list. When you hold a phone in your hand and actually use it, that is when a review can actually happen. Reading specs off a list and filling a 7min video with b rolls is all it takes these days to make a review apparently.
Again, thank you for your work. I dont need flashy b rolls and a spec list , but a guy who sits down and genuinely talks about his experience which seemlessly comes from daily use to a formal review.
Always glad to have a few more folks along for the ride 👍
I trust your reviews more than the other popular youtubers. Seriously, you don't even pop up on the search list if i dont put your name after "LG wing review" even though the title is the same.
Loved your review!!! I plan on getting this at some point. I'm using my Surface duo as my daily driver for all mobile activities at the moment. I don't plan on getting this as my main mobile device or phone, just going to get it because of how innovative it is!!
It's REALLY fun. Especially if you like interesting phones with hinges.
My phone comes tomorrow. I cannot wait!
So far I loooove this phone!!!
That gimble mode is absolutely *wicked*.
For the first time, I'm excited to see what LG will do next. The V10 was awesome with it's steel rails snd ruggedness, but I feel it inches towards Samsung-ish design choices with each iteration.
It finally seems LGs got it's confidence back and there banging out wicked ideas and phones. So cool. Too bad I'm not rich though.
2020 was an interesting year for LG. Overall. Comparing their attack plans in previous years. Thanks a million for your share.
Buying this device is really deliberate move and I don't think I am there yet. But these kind of ideas are pushing the boundaries of how we use our mobile devices.
Nice phones from lg this year
People complaining about power button? Lg floored this a long time ago. Even my v20 powers off the screen if you tap the home screen twice. If you want to turn off the screen while an app is open, tap the notification bar twice
Right! Folks been sleeping on lg...
Watching this on my new LG wing
Sent from my iPhone 😉😉
Actually on my NOTE 9
Lol
In terms of phones LG have really banged it out of the park this year by offering different experiences in different price ranges and the Wing seems utterly engaging. That gimbal feature is sublime. I want! I want! I want! Footstamping over.
I really like this guy! He's very articulate, has great energy & personality and isn't a shill for apple (like Marques Brownnose, crapple explained, the splerge, CuntNet and many, MANY others). He even has a nice sense of humor and is more focused on the positive side of the LG WING and the fun that us users have/can have with it!! 😎👍
Subscribed, Liked & Appreciated, my friend! ♥️🌹✅
Juan Bagnell, the perfect cosplayer for Super Mario! LOL
I'm trying to lose weight tho... Not gain more...
LG makes awesome phones. I have the V60 and love using it. The G8 might be the most perfect phone...2k screen, headphone jack, 32-bit Hi-Fi QuadDAC, 3D Face Unlock, rear fingerprint reader, perfect screen size and form factor, the blazing Snapdragon 855, and that unworldly Carmine Red.
So true. Such a shame it got panned. It's still a fantastic phone.
Love this phone I have it and man you see it in person
😍😍 you gave me positive vibe to buy this phone thank you!
Myself, I have a V60 Dual Screen and a LG Stylo 6 and G8Thinq and I really enjoy LG's products overall. I find the Wing to be an interesting device
Best review on this phone. Others who reviewed this haven't actually used it. Lol. T-mobile had a 50% off promo when i bought it. $500 is a good deal for me.
That's a CRAZY buy for a phone with multiple moving parts.
Gimbal work is unbelievable😍
It's really good.
Guy you really did great i love the review i really love lg phones beacause they are unique
First time on your channel. Hopefully getting this phone for my wife and I today. Great video.
Love the Flat cap
😎👍
Ima buy one on Black Friday ;) Also love your style of videos
Its annoying that if i want to buy the wing many other tech reviewers push you to not buy it and buy like a zflip or a regular phone.
I'll be getting this in almost a month from now at $315. Can't wait for my birthday!
Happy birthday!
I bought this phone on the 2nd. I love the option to allow apps to be used on the small screen and the large battery. Well.. Everything really. If I absolutely *had* to complain its the small particles of like dirt that can sometimes get in the gaps between the screens but that's not even much of an issue
I think it's a fair concern, but not something I'd consider a deal breaker. Just something that requires a small change in how we care for a phone. Congrats on the new pocket computer!
@@SomeGadgetGuy thank you! Best $1000 I could have spent on a phone. I explained it to some people that.. If Im going to spend this much on a phone I want it to be different. I want it to do something no other phone does. And the LG Einf met that quota with flying colours
I got the V60 5G but i really wish I had gone with this instead. There are times where I have left the house without my dual screen case only to wish I had a second screen later on. This is a better solution to that very unique circumstance
I think there is LG biase. T-Mobile's website is arranged by new phones on the top and older phones at the bottom. LG Wing was sorta close to the top last week when it was released and now it's all the way at the bottom. Strange, huh?
Would you ever do a follow up vid about the wing
I'm writing an LG 2021 recap video now.
Good episode 👏 you ticked every box for a good review for average users
Great phone....Great Review...❤️
Dude. You didn't mention the typing experience on the second screen
OMG! I kept waiting for your full review video. Loveeee it. I know ur soft spot with LG. I got 2 Wings in blue and grey with the T-Mobile buy 1 get 1 free promo. Loveee it.
I REALLY want that blue one, but it would still live in a case. 😁
@@SomeGadgetGuy I loveeee my illusion sky. Any way you can do a 10 must do tricks on your LG Wing video? Don't laugh, but i dunno how to add new app icons to the swivel screen when swiveled up. Sooo frustrating!
LOL I'll see what I can do 😁
@@SomeGadgetGuy I feel so dumb. I can't even add app icons to the swivel carousel menu.
@@SomeGadgetGuy I'm surprised Marques Brownlee was semi-nice in his LG Wing video review. He always takes a big dump on LG like he just had 20 tacos with mystery meat haha
Where's that case from?
Why LG still doesn't sponsor JuanBagnell still baffles me, or do they?
I was planning to get this to upgrade the wifey's V40, but I think we will wait and hope for a gen II with a top tier processor and 4k in gimbal mode. We love the phone and were looking forward to it, but we just need a little more, and we are willing to pay a little more as would be appropriate.
It can only be Juan! Full in-depth reviews after using the phones
I do like the like the hardware experimentations LG does, but let's hope that LG finally stats to deliver on the software support front. I loved my v30 but after it stopped receiving software support and doing the bare minimum for the 2y (every 3 months and months old security patch) i jumped ship.
V30 was four years ago now. The major change from their software center happened around the V40 to G8 transition. Still room for improvement, but your talking about a completely different beast now. It's like judging the iPhone 12 by saying "iphones used to bend".
@@SomeGadgetGuy I pre-order the phone in my region and got it end December of 2017, so closer to three years than four. It releasing without treble and android 7 so ending at android 9 was to be expected, but the overall promise of better software upport never really came through and that has certainly influenced my purchasing decision this time as I'm now happy on my S20 fe 5g with the promises of 3y support. Keep up the great work, really enjoy your take on the subjects 👍
That's that Tony Stark phone.
Old LG. It's a cute little time capsule.
God I love this phone. Really wish LG had stuck around and made a second/third iteration, and invested in marketing. This form factor had so much potential,
Ikr, LG Wing 2 with better camera hardware and Snapdrgaon 778G+ should be alright.
Best Review of lg Wing ON yt, Btw i ordered it today
Since I first saw LG's DualScreen case, I have been rooting so hard for LG and the new Wing definitely got me giggled so hard. Boy, I. SO. WANT. TO BUY ONE! 😍😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️❤️
I saw all those hearts and thought you were one of those spammy "boyfriend" bots 😅
@@SomeGadgetGuy Really? I don't even know that. 😂🤣
