LG launches curved Smartphone

LG Electronics of South Korea have launched an innovative curved Smartphone, according to a Reuter report.

Curved displays and flexible screens are the new battleground for global phone makers as the screens open up possibilities that could eventually transform the high end Smartphone market.

"Curved Smartphones provide a more comfortable grip than flat-screen models, but the high manufacturing costs indicate that they may not attract consumers sufficiently to become top sellers in the market soon," company spokesman said.

LG has released their new curved phone to the South Korean market to gauge consumer appetite and response before releasing it to the global market.

"The new LG Smartphone has a vertically curved display which offers a more immersive video watching experience.

It also has a curved battery to support its curved form factor," he said.

Changing form factors of the battery and the phone's chip board and other components remain a huge challenge in achieving flexible devices. From refrigerators to TVs and air conditioners, LG has from time to time produced innovative products with new advanced features and technology. LG's advanced research and technology teams work continuously to develop more advanced quality products that save energy, protect health and the environment.
