LG premium phones get “G” branding

We may or may not find out what “G” stands for but LG Electronics intends to use that letter for their premium smartphones. The Korean brand’s next flagship device is going to be known as the G2 and will be the first phone to represent the brand. Another brand change is the renaming of their 4:3 display devices to just “Vu.”

Is LG developing flexible OLED Screens?

LG has been on a tear with some exciting announcements in mobile. First was the LG Optimus VU, which is it's tweener device that's between the a tablet and a smartphone, aimed at Samsung's Note. Then the quad core Optimus 4X HD flagship Android smartphone announced at the Mobile World Congress this year. Then, there's that LG Optimus LTE2 with 2GB or RAM. Boy, the hits keep on coming.

Now we're hearing reports that LG is working on flexible OLED displays that are unbreakeable. A report from Ubergizmo states  that, "LG’s 3.5-gen production plant is ready to begin production by the end of the year, so it should be around early-mid 2013 when we can start seeing phones being advertised with “unbreakable” displays."

What this could mean for LG and for the mobile industry in general is more interesting and pliable. This also means that we will get more shock resistant screens for our smartphones, tablets, ereaders and possibly our notebooks.

Good stuff coming from LG. Now, how about some Ice Cream Sandwich updates on our Android devices?
