Korean
smartphone maker LG has finally managed to launch the White colour
version of its Google Nexus 4 smartphone. On the side lines of this
launch the company also mentioned that it has no plans to develop the
next version of the Nexus smartphone.
This information is based on a
new report by the Dutch site All About Phones. The website has carried
an interview with Kim Wong, Head of LG Europe, who says, "There are
currently no plans for a Nexus 5 made by us. We don't need that kind of
marketing exposure anymore. The Nexus 4 was a great success, even with
the supply issues and we have a great relationship with Google. But we
won't make the Nexus 5."
This statement is contrary to the news
reports that suggested that LG is currently working on the next
iteration of the Nexus smartphone.
At this event, Wong also shared
that the company will not be launching any smartphone that comes with a
flexible screen in 2013. He mentioned that this technology is not yet
mature and that we will have to wait a bit longer to have a smartphone
with a flexible display.
Furthermore, at this very event LG has
shared its plans to get back into the tablet space. While talking to All
About Phones, Wong shared, "The tablet market is currently fairly
segmented, nevertheless we continue to invest in it". Wong even went on
to confirm that the Korean Chaebol is currently working on an Android
tablet but did not share the time frame by when this tablet will see the
light of the day.
Kim Wong in his remarks also mentioned that
the company has an exciting array of devices that it intends to launch
in the latter part of this year and aims to continue this momentum till
early half of 2014.
