LG G6 Smartphone sees continued strong pre-orders
We noted earlier this week that LG had received 40,000 pre-orders for its flagship G6 smartphone during the 1st four days of its pre-release availability in South Korea. According to subscription data, the pre-order rate has continued at ~10,000/day through yesterday’s actual release date, although no actual sales data has been generated yet. Consumer distraction over the final impeachment of South Korea’s president might take some focus off of the initial sales, but this is a make or break product for LG’s mobile business, which has not seem much success over the last few years. If the phone is not successful in the company’s home market, it will likely not do well elsewhere, and will put LG’s mobile business at significant risk. Stay tuned.
