New Delhi, Jan 24 The mobile business of LG Electronics has been in the red since the second quarter of 2015. Its accumulated operating loss reached nearly $4.5 billion last year and now, the South Korean company is planning to exit from the competitive smartphone market.
LG has been quite brave with its recent mobile forays, experimenting with what comes next in smartphones.
Consider, for instance, the rather exciting foldable LG Wing, or the forthcoming rollable device.
However, significant and sustainable market success has alluded LG to date including in India. LG's share in the global smartphone market is estimated to be between 1 and 2 per cent.
