We are happy to announce that we have heard directly from LG at their press conference in Barcelona at the Mobile World Conference that they will have several android based devices this coming year.

Although details are scarce at the moment, Android and LG enthusiasts alike will be happy to hear this news, especially in light of the fact that Android at MWC is pretty quiet at the moment. Many of us will hope for at least one high end device with a decent camera and flash. Rest assured, when we hear more information on this from LG, either here at MWC or over the next few weeks, you’ll be the first to know!

    • alex

      Reviewers trying to save them.. All media bias.. In the real world HTC is doing nothing..

      • OMGgary

        Yes, I’ve noticed the way that tech websites have been trying to hype up HTC. Too much damage done by the company to its own image at this stage, something which isn’t being improved by the arrogant pretence of elitism in its most recent campaign. You don’t get back out of the gutter by donning a top hat, putting on a snooty accent and telling people you’re Lord Haughty.

          Very true, gsm arena went as far as calling the One button issues minor, just today.

      • amine ELouakil

        lol Media bias? Think again, HTC doesn’t have the ressources nor the money that Samsung have, Samsung sponsers tech websites and they don’t even hide it and you think that they are favoring HTC, that’s some nonsense right there.

        • simpleas

          Lol no money and the products got issues. .GL HTC.

          • amine ELouakil

            Nah they’ll be fine, what they need is to release a global butterfly J with a 5,3″ or more display a sort of fablet if you may say and a proper tablet before holidays season, if they can keep the momuntum without dellueting their new found brand they should be fine

        Yeah, I still don’t see how a metal body makes it an ‘obvious choice’. If another phone has a big screen, does all the same things and is fast as well, how is a removable battery or SD card slot that you can access easily a bad thing? I thought people were bitching at apple for not having thing those features?
        And can we talk about senseui? I don’t know how its better than touchwiz (I’m not saying touchwiz is great either) but damn, HTC ruined the One with that ui.

        • Lil bit

          They both ruined the ui, thanx God for Xperia Z with its clean virgin ui. Sense and tw both reminds me of STDs, esp tw has a sickly bloat to it. Sense could be acceptable without blinkfeed, but then again HTCs quality will never be acceptable, at least Samsung has great quality and service.

  • Stranger from a far coast

    The above article is why people look at specs and the extra hardware capabilities (external sd + removable batt)

    We should all be proud of this figure. Only sheeps are remaining at apple which does not have the above said features.

  • Abdullah

    Samsung haters… Where aree yoooouuuu ???

    • amine ELouakil

      I guess their 900% bigger marketing budget than any other Android OEM is paying off, good for them

    HTC puts out nice phones but for some reason they find a way to cripple the device. Look at the DNA on vzw the only option is a 16GB with no room for expansion and a tiny battery.

    Motorola would only release a high end phone on vzw. If they would release high end phone on all the carriers they would be doing a lot better. Hopefully Google will turn Motorola around and make it a contender. They need to make high end phones for the top 4 carriers and advertise them as they advertised the OG Droid. This time around they should show people what the phone is capable of doing, instead of blowing up walls and fighting cyborgs like in their last series of droid razr commercials. I walk into tmobile stores and I don’t see one Motorola device.

    I’m not sure why LG is not impacting the market a bit more. They have put out nice high end device in the past year. At the same time they have cripple their lower end models by not including enough internal memory and RAM. While Samsung make a low end device with 8/16GB of internal storage and 1GB RAM. LG put in their lower end device 4/8GB of internal storage and 512/768MB. It also seems that they are not advertising as much as they need to. I won’t point out their lack of OS updates that I keep hearing about here and there to their device because the mainstream consumers are not into updates and/or don’t know that the OS is updated from time to time or just don’t care about the latest version of the OS as we do.

    How does one go from “samsung and apple got 90% of smartphone profits in Q1 2012″ – the actual title of the linked article, to “Samsung accounted for 90 percent of all smartphone profits” – the text in the article above. This is just bad journalism.
