You Do Not have to be a genius work out why LG sales are failling..... they wasted so much resources to come up with new phones like the Velvet, Wing both poor sales, and now new Rollables on the way, but they Never knew how to capitalised on the R&D already spent! IMHO,they already have Fantastic phones like the V60 Dual Screen which is the most underrated phone of 2020 as agreed by most critics. YET, it was Never release globally, most people who are none techies dont even know a V60 existed outside US and also it was a very limited in a few markets only even after many months when it was released in U.S.
Why did they refused to release the v60 Global with Dual Sim outside the US, is just crazy.
I had Been waiting for so longgggg.... till I could not wait anymore and ended up buying the Note 20 Ultra last year when I could not get the V60 Dual screen +DUAL SIM Global, which is what most of my peers did too, we actually preferred the V60 but with Dual Sim.....so many sales forgone in Euro and Asian markets, when all they have to do is some minor software tweaks to release a Dual Screen + Dual Sim V60 to the existing production lines that are already in place, so sad that blind freddy could have seen that.

"LG isn't giving up on smartphones" ... yes, they are (in practical terms, anyway) .

I meant the same. They have guts to do experiments. And they should keep that continued because they can afford to do the same.

I am glad they will continue to making smartphones! Now they have to come with a better marketing strategy, better pricing, sell their phones worldwide and they will start to rise.

Featu... moreI think the same. customers who want alternative to samsung (excluding chinese phones), only way to go is LG or Sony. LG is not giving us a chance. I really wanted to buy a LG V60, had to settle up for S20FE because its not available. LG's marketing team is a joke.
32691026Kriegsherr, 6 hours agohow is it a good one if I cant buy even if I wanted? LG V60 is not available most of the places. Okay, that is a good point. I myself have to import one from the USA to get it. Same story with the Wing 5G. I did see LG ramping up the marketing like the Unbox Therapy Wing 5G ad, but the official region availability is still not that wide.

You are actually right. The main problem LG has for me is availability and marketing.

Yeah, sure, they're not stopping making niche devices at $2k price points. And they're not stopping giving away orders to ODMs to make budget phones for them, and sticking LG sticker on them.
LG V60 in Europe - $1000.
Velvet - dropped camera quality, removed quad dac, added curved display... it's a shock they kept 3.5mm jack there.
LG G8 variants? I couldn't find it on sale anywhere with a reasonable price (found refurbished devices imported from USA, all with burn-in).
Yeah, LG is not giving up on selling overpriced merchandise! They gave up on flagship models with modest pricing, so now they're concentrating on Lamborghinis of smartphones - ultra niche, expensive, small batch products.

Why would they give up on smartphone when they are still making money from it (not much money but still) also isn't LG has the third place of US Smartphone Market Share (please correct me if I'm wrong)
32691026I have no problem with their flagship and premium midrange phones, LG is the one that can give a complete and stellar package that can even embarrass a four-figure smartphone. It's the midrange and entry-level smartphones that need some attention, mainly because of the super tight competition from the Chinese smartphone brands. At least LG has decided to leave the production for midrange and entry-level smartphones to third-party manufacturer, so at least there is a light of hope since Samsung also did that since December 2019 and it proved to be a success.

Can people who like IOS and do not like Apple pricing switch to other IOS manufacturers? No. So basically Apple can do whatever they please and to some extent they are doing it.
LG can't do the same thing. People who find their prices high, they will just go to other Android manufacturers (which a lot do, looking at the numbers of LG phones sold).

LG on the other hand is on Android, and it has direct competition. When you have direct competition and higher prices, the average user will always choose the better priced device. That's why companies like Sony, LG or HTC do not matter in the phone industry anymore.
Sony and LG were lucky, because they have other services that are making nice profits. HTC, not so lucky.
