and Customer Service as Differentiating Factor in the Smartphone Space

SINGAPORE, January 12, 2016 — LG Electronics (LG) today began rolling out Android 7.0 Nougat OS for the LG G5 in Singapore. LG was the first smartphone manufacturer to offer a Nougat experience out of the box with its LG V20 for content creators, and now it is offering Nougat as an upgrade to existing smartphones running Android Marshmallow.

Android 7.0 Nougat offers a range of new features designed to enhance the user experience and deliver more speed and convenience to LG G5 owners. For example, searches can now be conducted inside user-installed apps as well as built-in apps using Nougat’s In Apps. New Multi-window allows user to switch between apps with a double tap or run two apps side by side. More personalized settings and smarter notifications allow users to be more productive with less effort.

“At LG, we know our customers want the best, most up-to-date mobile experience,” said Mr. David Yoh, Mobile Communications Business Director of LG Electronics Singapore. “Getting software updates to our users is our way of demonstrating that LG is committed to supporting our products and customers to ensure they have a positive ownership experience.”
