LG has been an innovative smartphone manufacturer, and we ve seen some out-of-the-ordinary smartphones from it recently. The LG G5 was a notable attempt at a modular smartphone, while the more recent LG G8X ThinQ and LG Velvet were foldable dual-screen models.

The LG Wing forms a “T” shape when opened, and that raises a few questions – will this form factor be useful for multitasking, or is this just a cool party trick? Here is my review of the LG Wing.

The Velvet is a little different from the LG G8X ThinQ, which it s inspired by, but does it offer the same kind of value? Check out my revi
Like so many others, I have spent much of this pandemic cooped up inside, finding it hard to concentrate on work or daily life. Too often, I sit doomscrolling about the latest COVID-19 infection rates, half-listening to my husband s endless Zoom calls in the background. I sense my breathing getting shallower; my shoulders creeping higher and tighter.
I ve cycled through a bunch of alleged stress-busting tactics: online crossword puzzles, meditation apps, and beginner s yoga on YouTube.

Nothing really grabbed me or relaxed me until the YouTube algorithm figured out that I was having a (very) hard time and began suggesting different kinds of content. I took the bait and fell into the steepest of rabbit holes, calming my mood and spirit: ASMR.
