It’s the time of year we can look back and reflect. We’re starting to get a look at 2024 devices. How far has Android come over the last five years? Revisiting the LG V50, let’s see how well it can hang against modern powerhouse phones.
Will it be completely outclassed? Over course it will!
As we wrap up 2021, obviously the MOST important company to take a look at, how DID LG phones perform? After shuttering most of their phone division, smart money would have bet on DISASTROUS results for LG consumers. Thankfully, that didn’t happen.
The toughest recommendation for ANY manufacturer, is a new phone improved enough to recommend flipping a one-year-old gadget? The V60 is a BEAST, but are there enough improvements here to out-muscle one of the most brutally powerful phones of 2019?
LG released a major update for their workhorse phone. Not only Android 10, this brings a whole new user interface, and LG polished up Google’s desktop mode!
There’s a LOT going on here. With so much custom software and a heavy skin, was performance impacted?
We can get a stunning amount of work done from our phones these days. I truly believe that phones are powerful enough to replace laptops for a LOT of consumers out there. However, when a company slaps a “pro” label on a phone, that should set our expectations a bit higher. Apple always makes bold performance claims, and has been one of the most visible companies to showcase mobile video production and content creation.
How does the iPhone 11 Pro stack up against a premium Android? It’s time for a showdown!
If we want phones to start replacing laptops, they have to handle heavier workloads. I’ve gotten criticisms that my video rendering test is too short, so let’s REALLY drive some phones hard. What if we rendered a WHOLE MOVIE on a phone? Can our mobile gadgets hand with laptops? Will phones run too hot?
LG V50 vs G8X dual screen showdown! If you want more space for activities, LG’s solution of a second screen case might be just the trick. Here’s how the G8X improves on the first generation V50 case! FIGHT!
I’ve already gone on record proclaiming the V50 as my favorite phone of 2019. As a reviewer and editorialist, I don’t believe there can be “true objectivity” in a review. If you know more about me, how I use my gadgets, and the work I put them through, you will have a better understanding of my analysis. You can apply my experiences which overlap with your needs, and you can disregard the parts of my analysis which don’t apply to you. I made a video on this idea, which you can watch below.
I try to be as fair as I can. I try to examine a gadget based on the claims made by the manufacturer, not my preconceived idea of what the gadget SHOULD be. I try to figure out who the audience might be for EVERY gadget I review.
Every phone I’ve reviewed this year has gotten SOME kind of purchasing recommendation, but obviously some phones have been more broadly recommended than others.
With that in mind, let’s take a look at one of the most brutal comparisons in the premium tier of the Android ecosystem. This is a battle of polar opposites. Two substantially different takes on the idea of an expensive phone. And when the dust settles from this showdown, the songs we will sing of these mighty titans will echo through the halls of history.
