LG is one of only a few outliers actually managing a small but consistent profit from selling Android smartphones, and the company is about to branch out. Speaking with Bulgarian blog Dnevnik.bg, LG Mobile’s communications chief in Bulgaria Dimitar Valev tipped the company’s hand and teased a number of new devices LG is currently prepping for launch. Among them are a new 6-inch smartphone that will seemingly out-phablet LG’s recent 5.5-inch Optimus G Pro, a new tablet rumored to feature a 9.8-inch display, a new handset powered by Firefox OS and a new smartwatch, which would be LG’s second attempt in the category. No release timing or additional details were provided.
