SEOUL, June 4 (Yonhap) -- LG Electronics Inc. said Sunday it will release a new smartphone with a 4,500 mAh battery this week, which would top all mobile phones in South Korea in terms of power capacity.
The South Korean tech giant said the budget LG X500 will be available to users through the country's three mobile carriers starting Friday.
