Wasn’t it lucky GPX ? Either way, they are terrible for doing this.
Bought an LG C5 last november, set it up unplugged the ethernet and works well with any of the 3 devices i have set up on it at any given time.
LG is denying this. I haven’t watched the Gamers Nexus video but I wonder if they disproved anything LG is saying is not true.
I have a 65" LG C 4 connected wirelessly. Use both firestick 4K Max and Onn 4K Pro. Unaware of listening problem.
Yea it’s sad that they resort to things like that.
No LG was never affiliated with GPX. Back in the 80’s I had a Goldstar boom box that would absolutely blow your hair back, that sucker jammed lol.
Has anyone watched the video?
I’ve said so many bad words during football games. Hope mine wasn’t listening.
