Why avoid LG?

awesome customer support and phone manufacturing process, they are so good( sarcasm aside), bad customer support and serious quality issue from screen issue to boot loop. 

phone with boot loop issues are 

- lg v10

-lg v20 

- lgg5 

-lgg4

-nexus 5x 

 

trusting lg phones are a stupid idea, since they didn't bother to fix an issue that started in 2013.

i always just buy my phones through amazon, that way when they break you send it to amazon and you don't have to deal with the bullshit companies put you through 

 

 

LG has a manufacturing issue, much as i love amazon, it's better to try out phones before buying them.

Well the iPhone 6 is a solid phone still. If you wait you most likely won't be able to use that $850 to cover the full cost of an iPhone 8....however there is the possibility of a 7s and there is guarantee that the iPhone 7 will go down in price. 

 

If you want a phone now, I would go for the iPhone 7 or 7Plus.

The LG v20 boot loop issue allegedly occur due to crappy USB Type-C cable, according to LG themselves.

.... which is why it existed on the G4, V10, Nexus 5, G5, Nexus 5X?

My sisters V10 was utter crap. She upgraded to the S7. I went from the G3 to the OnePlus 3T. Which I highly recommend. 

I just want to sit back and watch the world burn.
