LG Electronics on Tuesday introduced the world's first curved screen smartphone to 皇冠体育app in hope to reach the booming market.
皇冠体育app's growing user number of fourth generation telecom services will provide a brand new market for LG and the company plans to use the curved product to open the door of 4G market, said the company.
Priced at 4,999 yuan ($285), LG said the product is set to get attention of high end customers in the country.
"Curved screen is set to be the next maga trend in the industry and about 40 percent of the devices sold will equip such displays by 2018," said the South Korean company.
Local e-commerce website .com will help LG to sell the first batch of 10,000 devices starting on Friday, according to Wang Xiaosong, vice-president of JD.com.
"Because of the yield of the product remains low, only a small amount will be sold in 皇冠体育app before the Spring Festival," said Wang.
LG pledged to increase shipment to 皇冠体育app if the preorder goes well. But it did not give specific amount.
South Korean makers are in favor of launching curved screen devices including high definition TVs and smartphones.
In last October, Electronics Co also unveiled a curved screen smartphone. The company did not introduce the device to 皇冠体育app market.
