Anyone else here because this showed up in your feed in 2023?
Well it’s 2023 now and I’m still very happy with my original Apple AirPods, all 6 of them. I love your energy, your smile, and those beautiful blue eyes! Keep up the great work!
Personally I love my LG phones. Always switch between samsung and LG and currenly am super happy with my LG Wing. So bummed about that rollable LG phone. That would have been epic
Sometimes yahoo answers came up with some good answers.
LG needed just two lines of phones: the basic one with perfect implementation of all the stuff phones should do and the experimental line with all their crazy ideas. Instead they spammed the market with different names and shapes so no one could remember anything particular about LG.

Cortana belongs on XBox. Really Microsoft?
U r amazing
Yik Yak still has Yik Trash users.

In an alternative universe, LG is the biggest tech company.
Wow this host is my new favourite, she's so bubbly and entertaining
It would have been fun if twitter shuts down
I'm surprised Google cardboard hung around all the way until 2021. Even from the get-go it was terrible, and largely responsible for a lot of people claiming they "tried" VR, and it's "just not for me". Sure, back in 2016 it was either that or the $1000 Vive or Rift, but cheaper headsets quickly came out and even the Vive and Rift themselves fell in price over time. No idea why Google would continue supporting it when you could get a proper VR headset for $250, like the Samsung Odyssey.
You didnt mention quest i give dislike not that it matters anymore
Yahoo answers was hilarious
I still have my LG Chocolate and Envy too 🤣
Did teeth whiteners die in 2021? 😁
U can tell this is paid for by the parent companies of CNET, the only skim ove the products that failed that are owned by them or just completely didn't mention them
damn, her eyes!
BlackBerry…
My college sent out a custom Google Cardboard pieces to tour the school back in 2016. Was really exciting for me.
I owned an LG Chocolate and a LG TV for a while….I swore I would never buy an LG product again lol. Absolutely terrible user interfaces.
I love my LG phone
stay clear of politics
My first "mobile" phone was a Lucky Goldstar (you can see why they changed to LG) around 1996. The battery life was so poor I had to constantly tether it to a transformer. Otherwise, it worked great.
NOOOOOO… Yahoo Answers… who will tell me whether I'm pragnennt now?
