Korean company LG you must do a lot of work if she want to be present in competition currently in the smartphone market, especially because there is a very strong competitor, Samsung, in her doorstep. But without strong smartphones as well as full official support for updates, I think that’s just a passing dream! Even LG itself seems to be not planning any future improvements, because besides its lack of new smartphones annually like usual from competitors, it does not even care to support its already existing smartphones, which will likely be one of the main reasons for the failure of the Korean giant.
