The old LG V60 is getting a big upgrade.
LG Mobile exited the smartphone business almost two years ago in April 2021, but surprisingly, the company is still busy updating select high-end smartphones to the latest Android 13 update.
Last year, LG announced a big promise to continue updating smartphones with new versions of Android, not to mention security and maintenance releases for newer devices. And while I was skeptical, the company is making good on its promise as we’re looking at another LG Android 13 update rollout.
Yes, over the weekend, various reports on Reddit confirmed that the LG V60 Android 13 update is coming to T-Mobile. Unfortunately, we don’t see it yet for AT&T or others, but it’s likely to be here shortly. This follows the release of LG Velvet Android 13 in February.
For those who don’t know, LG promised a three-year upgrade guarantee, saying: “LG premium phones released in 2019 and later (G-series, V-series, VELVET, Wing), while certain 2020 models like the LG Stylo and K-series will receive two OS updates.”
The LG V60 ThinQ arrived in 2020 and is over three years old, but it’s still alive and well. So far, we’ve only heard positive feedback from users suggesting that the Android 13 update made the aging phone better than ever. However, that will be the end of the road for the V60.
While new software OS updates are great, getting regular security maintenance patches is much more critical, and we’re not sure how many of those LG plans to ship. Either way, enjoy Android 13 on your LG phone, but it might be a good time to start looking for a replacement.
