LG abandons modular design, the LG G6 will not bring "friends"

LG G5

At the beginning of this year that is almost over, LG tried to surprise us with its LG G5, a modular mobile device project, which has not ended up dazzling the general public. The data is overwhelming, LG's smartphone is selling really poorly, and its modules are selling even worse. For these reasons, sAccording to the latest leaks from Korea, the company has decided to abandon the modular style that it tried to include in its high-end range., to return to a standard device with dreamlike features, leaving behind too risky innovations. Companies like Samsung were already opting for continuity in their high-end models, and the play is going well for them.

The price of the modules did not help their sale either, they were really expensive, the Virtual Reality module, the 360º camera or the Bluetooth headset, cost around $ 200 each. The report by ETNews predicts that the senior leaders of LG have decided to abandon the modular format. The truth is that LG is not aiming too well and lives on the rents of the LG G2 and LG G3, the statement sounds harsh, but it seems quite contrasted. That is why the company has decided to focus on launching a well-packaged product, with first-rate hardware, and without too much fanfare in terms of innovative technology, in that way they will take advantage of the pull of the high-end.

We emphasize that companies like Samsung and Huawei have been dedicating themselves to launching simply powerful, beautiful and continuous devices for a couple of years, ensuring a market share, a good handful of users come to them simply because of the confidence of a job well done (although to Samsung, the explosions of the Note 7 seem to be quite expensive). In short, early next year the LG G6 will arrive, and do not expect rare modules or inventions in the style of Nintendo Switch, play a powerful, beautiful and efficient device, without further bragging.
