LG expects to ship 20% more G4 units than its predecessor

LG G4 hands on-24

LG seems confident that the G4 is going to sell way more than ever before.

Just a day ago, LG announced its 2015 flagship. Formally that is. The standard one. Despite leaks of all sorts coming in for weeks now and even LG itself getting in on the action, the phone’s specs were somewhat of a mystery until the last few days. When all the dust and commotion settled, some felt a bit disappointed with the presence of a Snapdragon 808 instead of the beefier 810. The manufacturer, on the other hand, doesn’t seem concerned in the slightest; if anything, it’s actually more confident than ever that the G4 will be a super success.

The Korean conglomerate has gone on record to state a projected global shipment estimate of 12 million G4 units. For those keeping track, that comes out to be 20% more than last year’s G3, which was no doubt a major factor in LG’s recent good news. To some, this might seem shocking; to others, it might be perfectly logical. At the end of the day, assuming the sales numbers are on-par with the shipments, it will mean some major financial fortunes will be coming LG’s way.

Now that the G4 has been unveiled, smartphone aficionados eager for LG’s next big thing must hold their breath a bit longer for the upcoming G Note to arrive. Presumably, that is the other major device that “stands above the G series” the company plans to release this year…or is it?
