LG stood out as one of the few smartphone manufacturers that designed and produced its own phone cases. Most other brands left this segment to third-party accessory makers. One of LG’s most unusual accessories at the time was the Quick Circle Case. It not only protected the phone from drops and impacts, but also offered extra functionality.
Quick Circle Case Features
The front cover included a round window. This cut-out allowed users to access basic phone functions without opening the case. Through the circular window, users could answer calls, check the time, control music, or take photos. The phone’s interface was specially optimized for this design. The Quick Circle Case was not just practical — it was created to enhance the overall experience of using an LG smartphone.
Unfortunately, the case never became widely popular. Many users found it less convenient than using the full screen, as looking through a small circular window felt limiting. At the same time, LG smartphones were gradually losing popularity due to strong competition and market saturation. As a result, LG decided to exit the mobile phone market in 2021, and in 2025 the company completely ended support for its previously released smartphones.
