V and Wing is ahead

They already made the LG rollable and was ready to launch it. I hope lg bring that phone to market if they ever make a come back.

Yeah the wing was the first phone and what was something that was going to be called the explorer project which would have included the rollable. It's really sad that the wing is the only piece of this project we ever got to see. I would love to see a former LG employee leak some of the plans for weird phones they had. But the V-Series was great especially when they added the dual screen. had stylus upport on both screens, class leading battery life, was released in a good year for Qualcomm chips because the 865 was still being fabricated by TSMC (unlike the 888 and the 8g1 which would have probably nuked to 30% of the battery life and caused a bunch of throttling like it did to all the subsequent flagships). Not to mention that it's worth its price as a dac alone these days. And even has a perfectly serviceable desktop mode that works wired and wirelessly. It's not as good as dex or Motorola's ready for but it was well with on its way and still perfectly functional. V60, wing, G8X, v50, velvet .. LG really went out with a bang

ＹＥＳ

Hii. I plan on buying a phone. Do you think its still worth buying lg wing?

​@@aesenethasaytuno5546other phones will do most of the basics better because of new hardware and innovation. For us who still have LG phones, like the Wing, appreciate them for their out-of-the-box ideas. It isn't the best if you want a good camera or screen or even hardware, as it gets android updates way after other phones (we barely just got android 13 update recently), but if you want something to multitask and experiment dual app usage with, this is right around your corner. LG Wing + developer mode on + automated app tools = one of the best phones no one knows about lol... (My opinion... Not a fact)

​@@Mboogywhat does automated tools do if i might ask..

Do you still use it?

@@Super-c00n Yup, still do. Already got it updated to Android 13 and it's still serve as my current mobile videography gear.

How do u like it?

@@kzdz it's a good phone, I don't use the wing feature all that much but it's a great conversation starter with customers

where?

This phone is still worth getting, it's actually got Android 13 unlike duo or duo 2. Really the last five LG flagship were fascinating

@@michaelcorcoran8768 I still have my wing. Freaking love it. The wind could be a great phone for them to innovate to get back in the phone game

I hope LG reconsider and makes the wing their official competitor against Spen series. There's so much innovation they could do with the small screen. The small screen could be used as a drawing/note assistant pad. Even better if the LG wing ran windows

@kanabanakamura864 they worked. But the convenience was an issue. There were times I'd forget about it, slips put out of my pockets, and I did suffer a few tip damages. If the wind was a 1/4 inch wider, better software, housing for the pen, and a more innovative OS for the 2nd screen would've made, in my opinion, make the WING thee ultimate phone for media and for work.

The Velvet is the most beautifull phone I ever had. The wing, the most stylish

@@Kfyu902 I want the wing and the velvet. I'll most likely be getting both.

I got one of them

Still rocking two V60's and a V50 and a G3 and a broken V20 that needs to be fixed lol...

​@@andyrichardson9778I had a G3, epic phone

@@ennayanne Nice, yeah it was a really epic and great phone.

Yeah I have both the G8X and the wing. Personally I don't really even detect a difference between 765 and 855. I'm sure technically the 8:55 has better GPU but does not impact my use case. Plus 765 has the benefit of 5G, although I really don't care about that at all living in the United States. One thing I do like about the G8x is that it's relatively pocketable for a dual screen phone. And unlike the wing it comes with the Hi-Fi DAC..

Hi! Noticed you mentioned the Kishi not fitting the Wing. It really doesn't even after removing the rubber part? I'm changing phones and really wanted the Wing, but I use a Kishi and don't know if I can still return it to the store =/

@@TheKuroki42My apologies for late reply. Well, it *sorta* fits. If you cram it hard enough in there, it'll make a connection. But for the wing, i'd rather recommend the Gamesir gamepad!

I only have the Verizon model, but it's getting all the latest updates without too much fuss. It probably wouldn't be a bad choice if you're looking to unlock it any way.

boot loop king

@@fspeshalxo69 never had that

I actually avoid pop sockets since an incident with my G5 when it became hard to remove and left marks -_- I don't have a Rokid to test with. However, if you're looking for a phone to consistently connect to an external display, a phone with a newer Snapdragon 8-series chip would probably yield better results.

Or just swipe in a rainbow motion at the bottom.

I don't believe so. The digitizers on both devices use different tech which would usually block a pen that works on one device (e.g., a Surface pen) from working with the other.

@@GameXData thank you so much for responding!

@@GameXData Does a regular Samsung stylus work on the Wing? Like one from a Note phone or Tab S tablet?

@Cuba Roberts Unfortunately, I don't have one handy to test for myself, but I've seen some Reddit posts suggesting S pens aren't compatible. You'd need a Wacom pen instead, like the Bamboo or Dell's stylus (which is what I used in the video).

My Wacom 2nd gen bamboo ink and that I got for the V60 and the wing can work with the Microsoft pen protocol, MPP, if you double click the two buttons for 5 seconds. I don't know if I've ever tried it with my duo but it definitely works on my surface pro 7.

Not sure how much I can help, since I'm not too familiar with smartphone resellers in African countries. In general, online retailers (e.g., eBay) or secondhand electronics shops are generally what I rely on to find new devices. I know the Wing at least launched in South Africa, though I'm not sure of any other regions. If all else fails, and if price isn't an issue, you might consider attempting to import a device from Europe or the US.

I'm not too familiar with anydesk, but I did have Remote Desktop setup already. After messing around with it for a bit as a refresher, I can confirm that the keyboard behaves normally (i.e., it pops up on the lower display when toggled). The lower display's trackpad also works fantastically for navigation. Based on personal experience, I've found the keyboard to default to lower display in 95% of cases where a keyboard is requested. The instances in which it doesn't usually boil down to either I accidentally switched away from LG's default keyboard or the app is opting for its own keyboard instead of the system's keyboard for some weird reason.

@@GameXData thankss, I think this phone works best for that case. Too bad it is discontinued

Yes absolutely. I don't mind the chip. And it's a phone where I can forgive the lack of a headphone jack because of the obvious unique form factor. Still provided the SD card. Stylus support, no notch, pop up camera.... The thing is because LG announced its closure on April of 2021, this thing was basically 40 or 50 cents on the dollar within a few months. So even if people had issues with paying a thousand bucks for it, you only really had to consider that for the first three or four months if it's existence. I paid $500 for it like three or four months after it was released and if I had waited three more months I would have paid under $300

Do you mean Pokémon Shuffle?

Uh it's not like Samsung didn't innovate a lot with its folding phones

It's a bit convoluted, tbh. Here are the general steps: 1. Open the game you're looking to play with touch input visible. 2. Take a screenshot. (You'll use this to map your controls later.) 3. Close your game and open the SoftWing app. 4. Select Controller Settings 5. Tap the Set Image button and select your screenshot 6. Select the button on the bottom half of the screen you want to map and tap the Configure button 7. Select the Input Type you want to use 8. Tap the area on the screen where you want that button press to register 9. Repeat for all buttons 10. Once everything's set up, launch your game with the lower display visible and launch SoftWing by selecting it from your notification shade. There are also a few different controller layouts you can choose from and a few different profiles you can save for different games. The Help button at the top of the app is also handy if you forget any of these steps. If your configuration doesn't work perfectly the first time, don't fret. It sometimes takes me a couple iterations to fine tune my controller settings.

eBay's going to be your best option. If price is a concern, I'd recommend aiming for a used device in good condition. As these phones get older, new devices are going to naturally become more expensive.

But at least they left with a bang.

Well, only their phone division, fyi

Do you have a timestamp for the game you're asking about?

14:07 .. i can't find this game on my play store , i wrote ac origins. Plz elaborate, thanks

Ah, I see the confusion. That's Assassin's Creed Origins running on GeForce Now. I have the game via Ubisoft Connect, and GeForce Now allows me to stream the game from their servers (link to product page: www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce-now/).

Hi..has it slowed down from when you first got it?...

@@motionoftheocean7524 no it hasn't its operating like the day i got it

@@MANSL200 oh wow.... That's good to hear.. thanks for the response! You think it'll be a wise choice to get one in 2023?

@@motionoftheocean7524 it's worth getting one but it's really chunky and heavy performs well so if you like a phone that's heavy and thick then go for it you will need a back cover for it it picks up finger prints very easy mine got the android 13 upgrade so that's a plus as well it runs on android 13

@@MANSL200 Much appreciated for the very helpful input.🙏🙏🙏. I've been eyeing this one item going really cheap on a used website... Now I just might ahead and get it myself thanks to you. Not a power user or anything..just like the form factor. It'll serve as a nostalgia later on i guess if nothing else in a couple years.... Thanks MANSL200
