LG has quietly revealed a new smartphone LG U in its home country Korea. LG, who recently public third quarter report bearing a loss in mobile business, has not made any buzz regarding this unveiling event. LG U is a mid-range smartphone featuring reasonable specifications, but not good enough while considering the price of this device.
Google’s pixel phones, unveiled last month, are enjoying dream run in markets and admired by critics as well. Pixel is running latest Nougat version of Android OS and a bunch of other cool features. One of them is a simple Fingerprint Scanner Gesture that allows you to "swipe" the scanner to access the notification shade. Google’s previous devices, Nexus 6p and 5x are also offered latest Nougat update but this swipe feature is missing. Now, Google is evaluating a Firmware Update to add fingerprint gesture support to Nexus 6p, 5x.
According to some reports, LG is offering full refunds to the owners of faulty Nexus 5x devices, which are affected by a particular hardware flaw that causes the phone to get stuck in a boot loop. The Nexus 5x was developed by LG and have sold these devices in corporation with Google. But, after the recent release of Pixel phones, Google is no longer selling the Nexus 5x devices. Now, due to this hardware flaw in Nexus 5x devices, LG is issuing full refunds to the owners.
