Korea's LG Electronics is looking to challenge the dominance of Samsung and Apple in the
-
global smartphone market with its latest device... the G2.
-
Connie Lee has more. Samsung and Apple better watch their backs as one of the biggest electronics
-
brands in the world, LG, is looking to knock them off their perch with its latest smartphone.
-
"Ladies and gentlemen... introducing the LG G2 "
-
Hundreds of tech fans, journalists and mobile industry insiders gathered in New York on
-
Wednesday... to watch LG unveil its newest flagship smartphone: the G2.
-
The new device... which was released in Korea a day later... features some innovative design
-
features.
-
For a start, it has buttons for volume control and picture-taking on the back of the phone.
-
It also debuts a "Knock Knock" feature... where the screen can be turned on and off
-
by tapping on it twice.
-
"I would say today it shows that they're really innovating to the next level, and Apple and
-
Samsung are going to have their work cut out for them to make sure that they're bringing
-
the product that's going to meet these levels."
-
LG is currently the world's THIRD largest smartphone maker... overtaking China's ZTE
-
and Huawei in the first three months of the year.
-
However, it still trails far behind the market's biggest players, Samsung Electronics and Apple.
-
"Our share in smartphones was 5-point-3 percent. But we are hoping to increase this number."
-
The G2 will retail for around 900 U.S. dollars and will be released globally by the end of
-
October.
