EDIT 8/25: Thread originally is for ATT version but now looks like sane seller has the unlocked TMO version as well for $10 more. Brand new, warranty, ect.. the TMO version is better since it's using MediaTek 5G chip, the Dimensity 1000C, instead of the SD 765G, which is on all the other variants.
LG Velvet TMO variant $269

How to know if the phone is compatible with your carrier:
If you are with Verizon, Sprint, or any CDMA, you need to buy their own phones or a phone that ESN number shows compatible with your carrier, that means if you are with Verizon you need to buy a Verizon phone and our listing has to say Verizon phone, an unlocked phone will not work with those service providers.
If your carrier is a GSM carrier, you need to call and talk to their tech support to find out what frequency band they are using, then check the frequencies for the phone that you are buying to make sure it supports all the frequencies (Bands) to make sure full compatibility. Please note, carrier branded phones may have some limited such as Wi-Fi calling when the phone is used with other carriers

I'm more than happy to see them crash and burn. They made good products but had shit support.
Also, which phones and how were they used?
Bootloop - One generation of LG phones (G4/V10) had a known motherboard defect due to contacts coming loose (insufficient SoC cooling). LG provided extended warranty after having their arm twisted.
Screen burn/persistence/retention - Not an issue exclusive to LG, it is likely user practice in combination with the display tech (e.g max brightness with static content on an OLED). Not something that would be covered under a limited warranty
Phone does not charge - User likely damaged the charging port. Afaik no V series have soldered on charging ports, and the assembly is replaceable. Not something that would be covered under a limited warranty
It had a 2:1 screen which had all kinds of usefulness. multitasking means both apps are square and remain the same no matter which way you hold the phone. There were cool camera uses where you take a square shot, then it shows that image while you compose the next.
Then samsung came along and started making arbitrary aspect ratios that made no sense and every other manufacturer followed suit. the whole thing became a mess.
I had Pay working fine on my rooted OnePlus 8 and Edge.
Fact: A lot of apps/games rely on SafetyNet to ensure the phone is secure e.g. Google Pay, banking apps and even games like Pokémon Go.
Finally I found there is a setting to enable 2g! And now I can make and receive calls (on 2g I guess) and internet via 4/5g still works fine.
I bought this during a previous sale and it's pretty good. The only thing I don't like is how tall and skinny it is. oh and i don't like curved screens either. But for the price, I'm willing to live with those dislikes.
Also, there is no so called "5G sim card" in T-Mobile.
you almost cannot surf and talk....

Bootloops on G4, also Nexus 5, and the LG tablet X 8. Screen burn on a backup V30 phone with a purple tint over the whole screen? It was a faulty display, and I got it covered through my 3rd party warranty after waiting a year for it to kick in (yes, that happened in under a year). Charging port - also within the 1 year on the V30 on the same backup phone. It had less than 10 charge cycles on it.
If you want to fanboy, go ahead, but LG lost the war and for good reason.
