LG sells smartphone division? Sources are confident, but the company itself denies this

It was reported this week that LG intends to outsource some of its smartphone business. In particular, this applies to inexpensive smartphones. There were also troubling rumors that LG intends to sell its smartphone business entirely.

The source was the South Korean edition of TheElec, which often publishes reliable information. The information was duplicated by Mishaal Rahman, chief editor of the authoritative resource XDA Developers.

LG Electronics is expected to close its smartphone business, which suffered from chronic shortages. On January 15, the company informed its employees that it will finally announce the closure of its smartphone division later this month. The announcement date is January 26.
