I've always kept an eye on them, because their phones where often far cheaper and did really interesting things(Wide angle lens, Flexible screen/body, Dual Screen case, Headphone amp, Flip out screen etc etc). But they really failed to make a splash after the modular failure that was the G5. They also suck at marketing and if you fail on that, then nothing else matters.

OnePlus really took that "cheaper but high quality" role from LG, I think.

The OnePlus 9 Pro being $1050 MSRP is starting to take them out of that territory, though.

to be honest they're out of the "cheaper"-role for a while now. Their last phones weren't exactly cheap.

OnePlus 9 Pro is a top tier phone, the price matches the feature set. The OnePlus 9 launched cheaper than the OnePlus 8T, still a highly capable phone and not an insane price.

I liked LG Phones, but in the end if they can't compete then I guess it is what it is. The smartphone market is pretty brutal.
