Korean mobile phone maker LG is reported to be developing a Windows Phone according to Indian publication, LightReadingIndia.
The paper quotes LG India’s managing director Kwon Soon saying, ‘ At home (South Korea), we are actually working on our Windows Phone 8 OS powered smartphone. Android is the major platform globally, given its acceptance and penetration. Although we believe that Windows will pick up going ahead, as Microsoft is pumping efforts into it.’
Mr. Soon emphasised that India in a key market for LG. ‘India is one of the most important markets for LG and we will bring Android based smartphones in different price brackets in the country. Our current range starts from Rs 6,000.’
I remember LG had a phone on Windows Phone 7 earlier. If this news is true , it would definitely be nice to have on WP8 from LG.
I think you’re right, Senthil – at present LG seems to be playing “wait and see”, like Huawei and others. It’ll be interesting to see what happens if and when they decide to take the plunger seriously into this market!
I still own that phone. I’ve been using LG first Windows Phone 7 smartphone “LG Optimus 7″ for three years up to now, I’m so glad with it and the final 7.8 update that I see no reason to change it but this new one you’re talking about.
