A few days ago we told you that the South Korean LG will put the brakes on and launch fewer mobiles every year. In an attempt to adapt to a highly changing context in which Chinese firms could have partially saturated the market, the company has decided to distance itself. However, that does not mean that it will stop making new models or updating the ones it already has with which it will try to get a more prominent role in the coming months.
Today we learned that one of its flagships, the G6, will bring significant changes to its European version. Next we will see what will be the highlight that this phablet will have, which, in its original version, somewhat more long-lived, was aimed at the mid-range. Do you think LG will have opportunities in this exercise or will it pass with discretion?
A gradual change
From PhoneArena They have echoed the incorporation of Android Oreo to this device. When it officially arrived a little less than a year ago, the software it was equipped with was UXUI, a layer of own personalization inspired by Nougat. Now, perhaps in order to give a boost to both the model and the latest green robot software, the South Korean brand has decided to give support to update. However, this will come with nuances depending on certain conditions and the geographic region.
The relationship between LG and Oreo
A few days ago we told you that the eighth version of the platform had started 2018 with a implantation less than 1%. This chilled the predictions of its developers. However, this could change little by little as the months go by. However, in the case of the G6 we find some aspects to take into account that can limit this trend: Europe, the update will not arrive, at least, until early summer, marking the end of the first semester of the year as the limit. In the Middle East, support will arrive in February. China seems to be the main ally, since the update is already available through a Beta version.
A brief review
As we said at the beginning, the G6 already has a certain track record in the market. Among its most outstanding features we find a screen of 5,7 inches with resolution 2K, a 4 GB RAM with a storage of 32 that can be expanded, and a Snapdragon 821 processor with maximum frequencies of 2,3 Ghz. Here we leave you a comparison of this model with others like the Galaxy S8 + in which you will see more details about him. Do you think that this union between the LG phablet and Android will have positive results for both? We leave you available related information such as, a list of tablets with Oreo in which are the best options currently so that you can learn more.
