                      Well, I must admit that, even if they're known for less than stellar design or software, the Koreans have been churning out compelling hardware in recent years (displays, memory, SoCs etc). Still not enough for me to buy an LG or Samsung, but pretty much any smartphone, tablet or laptop on the market today has parts designed or manufactured by one of them. That should say something.

                          This is good. Maybe now we can finally see phones with decent battery and being able to last a full day of intensive use.

                            I have the LG OPTIMUS G, & the LG G PRO. Now I'm an LG fan man. The G Is good looking. Like a showpiece. My favorite, is the G PRO. It's brilliant 5.5 inch display. Speed. Built in 32gigs. Did i mention Brilliant screen? L G made it handy. Not too wide like the note. And here in the states, $100 on contact and you walk out with it...... WOW! !!

                                      We need more battery life with minimum size and don't care whether it it is bendable or 'wire' shaped!
