LG Promises G6 Won’t Blow Up In Your Face Like The Others
Cris Xander JulianoIt looks like LG took some pointers from the fiery wake of the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 last year, as it promises its next flagship smartphone, the LG G6, won't blow up like the former. This is according to a report by Android Authority.
Samsung has not disclosed the results of its investigation regarding the exploding Galaxy Note 7 as of this moment. However, many believe that the main culprit is the poor overheating system of the device.
LG promises that they are taking extra precautions towards a safer smartphone. Lee Seok-jong, LG Electronics, stated that, "We will significantly improve the safety and quality of our new flagship smartphones as more consumers seek safe smartphones."
According to a report by Slash Gear, LG will use heat pipes as a cooling system more commonly used in notebook computers and tablets. It uses a copper material to carry the heat away from the CPU, where the heat is coming from. It then spreads it to other areas of the device, except for the battery. In addition, the design of the device won't cramp those parts that produce heat all in one place.
As an extra precaution, LG submits its devices to QA tests that are more stringent than international standards, such as piercing the battery with sharp nails, dropping heavy objects on the device or dropping the device itself from certain heights. Moreover, LG has a new hybrid environment test where it puts devices in higher levels of humidity and temperature.
LG is making sure that their devices will be safe for the public to use and not suffer the same fate as Samsung's. The LG G6 reportedly will be unveiled at the upcoming Mobile World Congress in February 2017.
