Modular Smartphones

The LG G5 was one of the first smartphones to bring modularity mainstream too. But the LG G5 hasn't really brought the modular idea into a massive success, and that should hint already on what the V20 should be. Nobody wanted to buy separate mods that are costly to improve their already good smartphone, so with the LG V20, the company made an all in one package again - what the LG G5 could have been if it wasn't modular. Most smartphones from hereon out will be getting that too. I have the same issue with HTC and Sony smartphones here. Lower tier to mid-range smartphones compete with specs and features for low-prices, while on the high end, some have better hardware, curved screens, a stylus, 3D touch, and even waterproofing. That's how Samsung arrived from the ugly S5 to the now gorgeous Note7. I love how smartphones are improving incrementally with each iteration. On one final note, I do wish that the LG G6 doesn't give up on modular smartphones.
