There were other things. Their g7's often had hotspots on the bottom of the screen. Many phones would have their charging ports die. Many of their more creative phones were also either budget, underpowered, or under engineered.

I am writing this reply from a v60 and I dont see any reasonable replacements other than mild side-grades. But boy oh boy do they have issues. Moreover, if you can even convince them that they should fix your phone, they only offer the repair it which takes times, never a replacement/refurb.

This is correct. Some film cameras have leaf shutters in the lens, and this allows flash sync speeds higher than the focal plane shutter speed of 1/125. For example old Hasselblad lenses could flash sync at 1/500. The downside to those lenses is they aren’t capable of opening the shutter fast enough to go higher then 1/500 or 1/1000. With mirror less cameras, that isnt an issue.

Not here. I am happy to have most of my favourite movies and shows on Blu Ray. Not only for the quality and extras but also the streaming provider shenanigans. I hate that we can't get some great shows on disc yet. Some of them are only on DVD and that's not an option.

The velvet was the worst one

That curved screen would always flashbang me in my vehicle. If the screen is basically 180°, you're always picking up the sunshine at every angle

Plus it just died on me. And it was weirdly rectangular

I'm using an earlier LG and its better in every way. Especially the "back" button. The velvet would often pick up my movements as sliding the screen back
