LG Electronics said April 18 that it plans to expand the number of applications customized for the flagship G6 smartphone.
The country’s No. 2 tech giant said it plans to provide 300 applications optimized for the G6 smartphone through its own app store by next month. There are currently around 200 apps available in the market.
The company said the move aims to allow users to better enjoy digital content, such as games and movies through the 18:9 screen of the G6.
“Compared with conventional 16:9 aspect ratio displays, the 18:9 format offers more viewing space and a more immersive experience when streaming videos and playing games,” said LG in a previous statement.
