Mobile division of LG to get new head

Samsung isn’t the only one (reportedly) replacing its mobile division head. LG is planning to replace the current chief of its mobile business. Unlike Samsung though, LG’s mobile division has been reaching record high sales and doubled profit. The reason they’re changing leaders is the current CEO Dr. Jong-Seok Park is suffering from health issues. He will take on an advisory role and will be replaced by Juno Cho (pictured on the left). Cho is from LG’s holding company.

Samsung reportedly applied for a patent of a smartwatch with a rotating bezel. Based on the design, it has a ring you can control with a simple rotation and it shows tasks and to-do lists in a pie chart sort of way.
