Digit-Life Reviews The LG G7120 GSM Phone

Quote from the review:

“Korean companies as none other can surprise customers by occasionally announcing their new but virtually unheard-of models. This is the way the new LG G7120 phone appeared, though it is, in fact, a redesign of the well-known G7100 model.

G7100 is probably one of the most successful LG products of the last year. A lot of money were invested in its promotion, which resulted in its wide renown. The phone’s draft design might seem somewhat awkward as it combines “feminine” features (smooth forms, a large glassy “illuminator”) with a men’s size. However, G7100 advantages got better, and the phone stood out against its analogs, such as Samsung V200 and P400. It has become popular with “stylish” customers that never use their phones long, seeking to try all new top-class models.

It was obvious that a redesign would try to make up for the above-mentioned inconsistency. But along with that, there was a high risk of trivializing the model. LG designers were successful enough to avoid it: though G7120 looks very much different from G7100, it is still something special.”

For most of my life, I think I’ve had a pretty unique career path among my family and friends. Ever since I got the original iPhone, I’ve turned my love for writing into writing about technology, specifically mobile phones. Though I’ve pretty much been iPhone-only for most of my career, since I started at Digital Trends, I’ve been opening up to the world of Android.

Now that I’m checking out both iPhone and Android phones, the world of apps for me has expanded quite a bit. But regardless of what device I’m using, there are some apps that I need before anything else. Here are the first apps that I install when I get a new phone.

I don’t want to see 5G on any phone in 2023
OnePlus 7 Pro 5G

I don’t want to see 5G on any phone in 2023. Why? It’s a complete waste of space, nobody actually uses it, and to the average person on the street, it means absolutely nothing. Yet, it has been a regular feature on new phones for years now.

Before everyone gets all uptight and starts stabbing out an angry email, I’m not talking about 5G, I’m talking about the tiresome practice of adding 5G to the end of phone names. We get it, it has 5G. So do the vast majority of phones out there, and it’s time to differentiate those that don’t, rather than those that do.
Enough already
