Might have to pick one up while I still can. I was thinking of going with them next. Sad news.

Do you trust them to continue to update? |

I'm on my 2nd flagship (at the time) LG phone and I'm thinking about grabbing their latest as my current one is around the 2-year mark.
I'm not worried about support or updating at all; I can't think of a time when I needed that from LG versus from my carrier or just general google/android-related stuff.
I like LG because they seem at least far less loaded with bloatware than Samsung and just seem a cleaner GUI than S too.
But in all likelihood I'll be switching to Pixel.

I've been using the LG G series phones for several years buying refurbished models the year after they came out. It's been a good strategy that's worked well for me. I spend on average $200 for a $600-$800 phone that's refurbished and a year or two old. They discontinued the G series a couple of years ago, so I wasn't sure what I was going to do when my current G8 (bought it in July of last year) needed replacement. Now I have no idea at all. I really liked their phones.

Going on 3 years with my V20.
It's the best phone I have owned.
I plan on keeping it for a while. It's got a replaceable battery. It hasn't slowed down at all. No reason to change it.

Interesting to hear.
There's still a good number of players in the market, fortunately.

Security updates for at least another year on the 60. Maybe 2. Not concerned about OS updates. |

I got the Pixel 3a back in December 2019 and have been very happy with it. Other smartphones I've had in the past turn to crap within the first year, although I didn't get around to giving LG a chance. |

I wonder why they're quitting phones?
