LG, a Korean technology company, is known for their TVs, and appliances and are considered to be in the top line of competition in those markets. However, for the smartphone market, they are not even close to being in people’s minds as a leading smartphone company. To beat the likes of Samsung and Apple, LG has announced that they will be coming out with phones that have flexible curved screens which will be new to the market and especially different from Samsung’s curved phones. The curved phones are definitely an unexplored market in smartphones and LG could potentially succeed greatly through this venture but the answer of whether the curved screens will be a hit or not is vague at the moment. However, LG is showing the public that to get ahead and leap over the competition, you must explore the unexplored, and be innovative.
