4. Wasn't Samsung the brand that was found to have the smart monitor always recording?

And then sending the recordings of your conversations to a third party?

My LG phone is about 8 years old, and is still going strong after being knocked around, including once being dropped IN THE RAIN on a main thoroughfare IN THE BRONX and being run over by a few cars (which I have to give credit to the phone case on that one too.) I had to replace the glass screen and the speakerphone doesn't work, but the bluetooth headphones and everything else work like it was new.

Since then, I always buy LG. I have an LG tv that is great.
