LG Turns to Android and WP7 to Recuperate Losses

It has been quite a tough year for LG, but the company’s hopes are finally up.

After two whole quarters of being in the red and slowly losing market position, LG seems to have finally gotten its act together and will be releasing a whole new set of smart phones on this latter half of 2010. The first two new devices on the list are the Optimus Android smart phones.

As many of you may already know, there is no shortage of Android devices available. However, this does not mean that buyer will naturally gravitate to the more well known models. In fact, the Android community is quite known for supporting all devices that use the mobile platform and in that regard, most Android devices are expected to be solid sales making devices.

Currently, there are already a couple of devices in the Optimus lineup of mobile phones and it has been announced that two more handsets will be joining the list. So far, the general outlook for Android devices is that they have a generally good chance of being successful products.

The Windows Phone 7 may seem to have that wildcard appeal thanks to the fact that it has not been released yet, but a single look at the developer version of the OS shows that Microsoft knows what it is doing. The new OS is dynamic and filled to the brim with all new features.

Many are already familiar with the Bing search engine and the Zune media player so the integration of these two features will certainly be a welcome sight and the Xbox Live Games service will allow people to play new games and even link up with friends to play together.

LG is not the only phone maker to focus on these two impressive platform, reports show that other major manufacturers such as HTC, Samsung, Motorola, Sony Ericsson and others are also working on Android and WP7 handsets.
