#V50 #ThinQ #Handson #Forgettable #Phone
The reviewer’s bored voice is enough to say that LG V40 is not worth checking out
It’s 5G. It’s cancer.
The voice is as boring as the one who created Japan’s flag. 😂
…I stoped at LG v30…I thinkQ Will have to wait for the V60 then…#Nonotch..is 2019
Why LG? Why?
The dual display is lit 🔥
Instead of a dual app display for the case they could have used it for full sized keypad which would have given the phone a pseudo notebook type appearance and made it different from other handsets from 2019. Just my opinion.
I don’t think LG has any idea about where’s market going.
Now I’ll be able to upgrade from my V20 to the V30.
Man… I have the V30S and love LG phones overall (mainly due to the dac/amp thing to be honest). But this year’s definitely an odd one. G8 looks good with the OLED upgrade and larger battery, should be a good deal after the prices drop a bit. But the V50 is really weird. That thing on the back, where you connect it to a 2nd display? Is that LG’s “response” to Samsung’s foldable handset? Because if it is, it’s a face palm moment. And if you don’t get that accessory, then what? You have three contact points on the bottom back of your phone that don’t do anything. Then there’s the notch and bezels that are still as thick as on my V30S. I was hoping for a bit of a design update too… Meh.
I wonder,what if companies come up with the Idea of putting a “Dick ID” on smartphone!?that would be more secure though..:P
I can’t wait to get it for $400 off next month!
Everything seems simple which is good. Everyone bitching about the notch when there’s an option to hide it, and its oled so black will be darker. If it’s a refinement of the v40 then good. Atleast we get bigger battery this time. What are people still bitching about?? 🙄🙄🙄
I’m not interested in bendable displays or camera holes,
this looks pretty interesting.
Glad i bought the V30+. I would never like to upgrade my phone to anyother lg phone now. V30 was the last and the best Lg ever produced. LG wake up.
Unfortunatly LG is lost . No more nttersting phone / sell
Notch. No thanks
20, 30, 40 and now 50 LG is really gonna run out of numbers
Besides V50 and G8 are there any other phones with the camera bump being non existant?
I ♥ LG
I have the LG V30 & love the phone.I’ve had the G2, G4 & G6 & now the V30. LG has always been underrated ‚that’s why i buy the brand. Everyone is Samsung or Apple crazy. I rather have a phone that not many people have,than buy a common phone that every 2nd person has. Be different, it’s not scary…
LG V‑DS
This is the company that literally has the best TVs in the business, yet they can’t match Samsung’s display quality. This is the company behind the transparent OLED displays and yet they can’t get over a notch. This is the company that made the rollable TV and yet they couldn’t make a foldable phone
It’s not about who outdone who. Both Samsung and LG are South Korean companies. You can’t fall behind any other companies when your country has the world fastest internet on the planet.
On my V30+. Seems like they’re going off track since the v40, I expected at least the v50 to ditch the notch.
Was this video filled in a cave? Why so dark? Where’s the lighting?
Boring af just like the G8 😂 god knows why someone would buy this over other options.
If this phone had a Samsung badge, many reviewers would be drooling over it.
How’s V50 is different from V40 apart from 5g and minor differences… It’s like the S8 and the S9, but even less differences… Dual screen has no use for an average consumer though
Lg never again
Dumb comments against LG. Not better than LGV40?/Recycled LGV40?
What about Galaxy Note 8 to Note 9 & Galaxy S9 to S10??
Does it have a hifi quad DAC?
Guess ill be keeping my v30 for a lil longer.
guess im buying an s10 this year.
I don’t think that’s the best solution, maybe they should have stayed with only one screen 🤔🤨
Yeah I think the V30 is as far as I’m gonna go with LG.…hard to root for the underdog if the underdog is super lame
That dual-display case might actually be worth it for me. I love that and could see myself using it a lot.
Yall will loose Qualcomm…lol…
Had a G4 since I pre ordered it. Finally time for a new phone but I pre ordered the s10, when all top phones perform the same its things like free wireless earbuds and that the s10 is the best looking phone that have set LG behind as well as their only real feature ahead of the competition is the audio quality, which isnt even that important since wireless ear buds are more convenient for when you use your phone for music such as when your at the gym.
The V50 has a 4000 mAh battery. Meaning finally a good battery in a V series phone. Yes please!
Whats price
How can you say the Samsung display is superior. The whites are brilliant dazzling white compared to the Samsung or Apple for that matter
Plastic Oled you said? No glass?
samsung and iphones all hype—but the sheep are clueless BBAAAAADDDD
It has lost so much in value
Business Opportunity in Ruvol
I have invented a Board Game [still unpublished and not yet out in the market] that I believe is guaranteed to be as challenging and exciting as CHESS. I called it “RUVOL.”
It is my hope that one day Ruvol may surpass chess as the “Number One Board Game in the World.”
The weakness of chess is it always starts in fixed positions that the opening moves become “memorizable.” In fact, not a few have so mastered the moves that they can play against their opponents “blindfolded.” It is for this very reason that the great Bobby Fischer introduced his so-called “Fischer Random Chess,” where the starting position of the pieces is “randomized” to make the memorization of openings impracticable. Fortunately, it is also for this reason that I invented Ruvol where “every game” has been calculated to be a challenging one to play.
HOW IS RUVOL PLAYED and HOW YOU CAN MONETIZE IT?
I detailed everything in my YouTube video. Here is the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jcqth0m3-R0
BIG MONEY POTENTIAL IN RUVOL!
It is worthwhile to note that the people who play chess will be the same people who will play Ruvol. In my Google search, I learned there are around 800 million chess players in the world. Even just a small percentage of these 800 million is good enough to earn big money from Ruvol either as an ONLINE GAME BUSINESS or as a PHYSICAL PRODUCT DISTRIBUTOR.
