2019, Recliner remarked: I just went to Amazon to look, for my LG phone. A choice of 13 products, every single one "Currently unavailable". Presumably because your phone is ancient? It's only three years old, but a design that's five years old. Sadly it just missed out having a major Android version change installed from new. I'm curious why you bought a new phone with a five year old design? It must have already been years out of date on the day you got it. Last time I looked, five minus three equalled two. I started with a list of features, which included user-changeable battery[1], Active Dual-SIM[1], 32GB[1] and NFC[2]. And that narrowed the field to a handful of models. 4G was a bonus, but I so rarely see it even today, it was never a requirement. The model which replaced it the following year was, by general consensus, so similar as to be virtually indistinguishable. Apart from being shipped with Android 5.1.1; the one after that wasn't in circulation yet (and it turned out only had standby Dual-SIM). The unforeseen consequence of buying the older, less expensive, model was they way they never upgraded to Android version. All mainstream apps work fine, it's just a few where the developers have forgotten about backwards compatibility. [1] Let's just take these as read, and not re-debate them [2] Specifically to examine the data inside travel smartcards. -- Roland Perry |
